How is shitting on a genocidal autocratic apartheid regime "virtue signalling"?

As far as I remember, there were people virtue-signaling this kind of conflict, even before the internet was a thing.

Picking reasons to create division is fun, fuck fundamentalism and governments - no innocent should die.

The people who support Hamas are brainlets, but the people who support Israel are extremely misguided at best
