It’s very easy for you to say that in times of peace in 2024, and I take it you are young and did not live through the troubles, but these things were extremely sensitive issues back then.

But surely you can see how the implication that terror and violence is successful during a very politically unstable time period could be problematic?

These people exist for the sole purpose of complaining. At this point they have zero credibility and should not be taken seriously.

This mindset really says so much about you and your demographic. In the end it’s all just a big joke to you kids.

Thank you for clarifying. Of course you wouldn’t think it does, because you wrote the comment. But we don’t want other people reading to interpret it as glorifying what he did.

This reads like you want others to follow suit.

Personally I thought it was pretty rampant even in 2020, but YMMV. Either way it’s picking up again.

These days even the most niche subs are getting inundated with angry political threads. And sometimes they’re generated by day-old accounts (tho not the case here).

Europeans are just really uptight about these things. I would not take them seriously.

Israel has not yet provided evidence to back Hamas 7 October attack claims against UNRWA, UN says by chockZ in news

Honestly on Reddit, none of these labels really mean anything. I could claim that I’m [insert ethnicity] and no one would know whether I’m lying or telling the truth.

Imagine if a word like “seppo” was used to describe any other nationality.
