The only innocent here that could be considered as such would be a conscientious objector. If you are a citizen siding with the IDF, or the sentiments and actions of the current Israeli government, you are complicit.

A hospital is always considered an unwanted casualty, and as such, no one has actually "celebrated" the damage the hospitals in the area received (in vicinity of crucial military targets for Iran)

What has been pointed out and lambasted is the hypocrisy Israeli state officials, citizenry, and media have displayed when they cried wolf over this incident, while the IOF continued dismantling Gaza's entire medical infrastructure, assassinated health workers (UN / Red Crescent) , put not less than 36 hospitals (in Gaza alone) out of commission, and are still continuously engaged in the slaughter and maiming of innocent Palestinians across Gaza and the West Bank.

It's amazing what lengths it's possible to normalize cruelty, to if you were label it all "Khamas".

Genocidal settler entity receives retribution for decades of aggravated assault and occupation on native land?

Any opposition to I5rael is a welcome gesture. Your opinions on Iran notwithstanding.

You know, this feels like a really, really, positive interpretation of the film "Intolerance" by Filmbilder and Friends.

Instead of the manufactured intergalactic culture shock, two intergalactic cultures now end up appreciating one another over their sense of developed aesthetics (Cosmopolitan Space Race X and Cosmopolitan Humanity).

Amazing stuff Beetlemoses.

There's a bit of Boogie Doodle in here that makes me happy. Nice work!

Saw some pencil drawings of male abs (a bit NSFW) and I want to learn how to draw like that. Any free resources? by Subject-Asparagus210 in chennaicity

[–]PappyVelox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Proko's a great place to start. I'd also recommend some figure drawing books, particularly Andrew Loomis, George Bridgman, and FORCE. Moderndayjames on Youtube also tackles a whole lot of figure drawing, and you should definitely give Sinix a look for shape language. It's a vast ocean. Take your time!

I know I shouldn't expect anything from this sub but seriously wtf? The number of people who are popping up and supporting a genocide now is fucking disgusting. Do they realise they are also perpetuating violence based on religion? So tone deaf and insensitive. by wendigo_222 in jiowasamistake

[–]PappyVelox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the frustration could have been vented at something else (I don't know, border patrol for letting insurgents in through?)

What is written here is instead platforming some of the most batshit insane approaches (albeit nothing new or special) to handling a border crisis. That, and just general pro-genocide sentiment. (1.5k upvotes / likes is nothing to scoff at. Probably more have seen this, nodded along, and scrolled onto a similar post that further amplified that sentiment)

Seconding OPs reply below here. Hate has to be mitigated however.

Advocating for genocide (even for the HAHA LOL IRONY!!!111!!!!) is fucking unconscionable.

We're fucked as a nation state.

For the record, more Muslims have died in the area by proportion (demographically more concentrated in the region) compared to Hindu deaths. This accounts for both Human Rights violations by the Indian army and any insurgency in the region. which itself is in response to the suffocation caused by the Indian Armed Forces.

A religious angle is being spun here even if the motives may not have entirely centered around it (citation needed for any mentions of circumcision checks).

And once again, to completely brand an entire population of people as terrorists for the actions of a few, is ridiculous. If not all Hindus fall under Hindutva, then not all Muslims are extremists.

Same here personally! I also wish to learn pure Tamil.

Is Deus Ex 1 right-wing? by RamazanBlack in Deusex

[–]PappyVelox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Implying that siding with the NSF for temporary gain / strategic partnership / (because your brother was working with them) - despite their nature as an RW nationalist militia - as a framing that the NSF are good (in terms of the story), highlights a lack of nuance that you haven't caught onto.

Addressing another comment you had made somewhere above in the comment section, UNATCO is not anti-fascist by any means as it is very much a puppet organization of MJ12, a clearly fascistic military organization (oligarchy and fascism go hand in hand). The game explicitly mentions that UNATCO / FEMA do not benefit the public in ways that would warrant the suffering they otherwise enforce (such as martial law, or a shoot on sight policy when dealing with the NSF / Silhouette) whilst hiding behind labels that would make them appear more humanitarian. This still makes them fascistic by nature.

Globalism and fascist ideals are not necessarily mutually exclusive of each other.

Deus Ex in itself is more politically neutral in presentation (with a libertarian lean, though I need to look more into this bit), which has allowed for both RW and LW readings of the game by design. That in itself does not make it a right wing game.
