I have been banned from unpopularopinion for exposing person defending genocide and use of human shields by IDF.
One of the users in unpopularopinion thread was complaining about someone calling him a “fascist”

In response I did paste a screenshot of his comment claiming IDF are not using human shields, it is Hamas who do that:

… And the mod of unpopularopinion banned me. I can only guess he is a another genocide apologist.
I mean, that doesn’t make them a fascist.
It makes them misinformed and a hypocrite.
In the second thread OP linked, the user in question is sealioning and “ackshyually” all the way. The whole thing boils down to:
They’re quacking like a duck and OP called them a duck. In this regard OP is right.
I’ll be honest, I was going off the evidence presented in this thread and didn’t follow the links. Dude is definitely a genocide denier and in the wrong but I don’t see the connection between being a hypocrite sealioning about Israel using human shields and being a fascist.
Denying that specific genocide is already grounds to call someone a fascist, because of why that genocide is happening: to expand an ethnostate in the Levant. So, when he showed surprise that he was being called a fascist, that was hypocrisy, because it was clear why.
Sealioning refers to how he was debating in that thread, not the specific claims he defends.
I would’ve accepted the label “genocide denier” six months ago, but at this point, I no longer do. The longer this conflict goes on, the harder it becomes to defend the IDF. What they’re doing right now counts as genocide by my standards - and nowhere have I claimed otherwise.
good thing that’s not a label that hinges on your acceptance of it.
Well, glad that’s all settled then. Welcome to the understanding of the rest of the sane world. Better late than never, huh?
