    A notorious, convicted terrorist said Palestine should resist by any means necessary.

    That was Nelson Mandela

    Isn’t it weird that I can’t find any western media outlets reporting this? Super weird right, I just can’t figure out why.

    cannot be equated with terrorism

    The only terrorists here are the “israeli” militants.

      love how that guy who climbed the fence and got shot by his own guys on the walk back wasn’t considered a terrorist by the media despite 1) being a lone wolf and 2) not operating as part of an authorised military action. I suppose that latter point is because all Israeli’s take part in an authorised military action as an occupying force every second of every day.

        Cuz words like that are usually used for countries, while “israel” is just a western colony in Palestine.

          I mean, Jewish people originally heralded from around the eastern Mediterranean, middle east? That would make them historically middle eastern rather than western. Or are we strictly talking about western powers giving the Jewish people a ‘homeland’ after the second world war and the holocaust?

    the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry

    I was wondering why so many comments with any criticism against China were being downvoted.

    Then I noticed which instance this was posted on.

    And then all those comments were removed by mods. Which only proved their points.

      Welcome to Lemmy. It’s not quite as full of imperial core propaganda about everything that challenges its imperialism as Reddit is.

      Well, maybe except LW. Saw someone with a zionazi flag in their username there once.
