    The Hamas defence here is inexcusable and I’m not surprised many people are turned off by this.

    Generally I don’t like how lemmy.world is being hijacked by fringe politics. This has ended all other reddit alternatives (like Voat). We have a good thing here - let’s not let bad actors to hijack it.

      Condemnation of Israel’s response is not “fringe politics” (nor indeed “Hamas defence”) and if you believe it to be so then whatever media bubble you’ve been placed in is working, other than this place. I’d be glad of that of I were you. America makes up a loud and influential portion of political opinion but it is 4% of the world and even there not a universal truth.

      If you consider anyone with a different politics to you to be “fringe” or a “bad actor” then it is you who are not useful, not them.
