    It’s not “kinda true”. It’s just outright false. If I support Hamas in the struggle against genocide that doesn’t mean I have links with Hamas. That’s not how this works.

      Except it is kinda true, they do have documented links with Hamas. There’s a fair bit of evidence for it. It’s just they’d be crazy not to have links to at least discuss with or influence a major power in the area they’re from

        It’s wild how Palestinians living in the West are somehow expected to have had absolutely zero contact in their life with the government of Gaza.

          It’s also wild how Hamas is expected to disarm while the entity committing genocide isn’t. Blatant hypocrisy.

        Alright, I stand corrected then. Not that I particularly care about electoralism anyway, but it’s always interesting to see how nakedly corrupt US elections are.
