    Oh look, when you brainwash an entire generation into thinking a rival group are subhuman and not worthy of life, they’ll think nothing of posting their war crimes online because they don’t see themselves as doing anything wrong.

    “What we’ve seen in the current conflict is it’s not just the volume [of the posts], but it’s also the fact that soldiers don’t shy away from uploading videos, sometimes with their face,” or other identifying features, said Eran Shamir-Borer, director of the Center for Security and Democracy at the Israel Democracy Institute. “They’re not even ashamed of what they’re doing.”

    That behavior is ingrained from childhood.

    They would need to have a cultural shift to stop soldiers from pridefully sharing their war crimes. In their twisted minds they think what they are doing is awesome.

    … a concerning uptick in recent years of respondents who believe that the IDF is held back from fulfilling its mission by upholding the principle of avoiding unnecessary killing and minimizing harm to innocent people. In October 2025, 65 percent of Jewish Israelis polled held that notion, up five percentage points from the year prior.

    What the hell? Israelis want them to be more aggressive?

    What do you expect when the entire nation is a fucking corrupt institution, rotten at it’s very core. It’s being run by a man wanted by the ICC for war crimes. Fuck Israel and anyone who supports them. Also, fuck your religion, whatever it is. Religion breeds hate and is the cause of most of the world’s problems.

        That sounds less like you telling other people how to live based on arbitrary premises that you have chosen to declare as fundamental axioms, and more like a damn good time.

    It’s almost like they condone the misdeeds but don’t want to admit it. Oh wait no it’s not almost anything, it’s exactly like that. It’s exactly that.

    Imagine if the IDF soldiers just stopped committing war crimes. Imagine if legacy media companies didn’t tie themselves in knots trying to protect and defend Israeli war criminals. This timeline needs more vigilantes since the corrupt systems only work to protect the ruling class, despite their crimes.

      If you’re not going to do it, don’t expect anyone else to. Go be a hero or stop praying for miracles.

          Have you seen Clerks? It’s an older Kevin Smith film and there’s a lot of memorable lines in it, one that’s stuck with me though is “shit or get off the pot”, also “salsa shark” but that’s unrelated as I’m not dipping tortilla chips right now.

          I’ve done and still do what I can activism wise, my gripe has been with people being ignorant to the devestating climate collapse and resource depletion in our near future, and trying to mitigate the suffering by warning people against having kids.

          I support activism and think if people have identified a ‘thing that needs to be done’ they should either do it, or stop endlessly talking about how someone else should.

    Genocide must be so normalized in Israel that they don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, to the point where it’s acceptable to post on social media.

    It must be hard for the IDF to explain to its own soldiers why they shouldn’t post it when the entire population is brainwashed.

    What of the officers in their military just held the soliders accountable for their “misdeeds” that would be a straight forward way to reduce the number of “misdeeds”.

    How about you treat the cause instead of the symptom?

    You mean Israel, a nation where 80+ percent of its population supports the Palestinian Trail of Tears, would struggle to control the output of snuff films?

    Well I’ll be dammed. What a conundrum. Truly is a quagmire
