US Politics on Sidechat | It is not a prerequisite to condemn Hamas before criticizing the Israeli state. The only purpose the line “do you condemn Hamas” has served is to downplay Israeli atrocities by distracting from the topic at hand. I’m so tired of the hasbara narratives.

What it actually does is serve as a 100% accurate litmus test for whether I should consider you a serious person on the topic. If you can’t condemn atrocities and acknowledge the right of the Israeli people to security, I’m not interested in starting a conversation.
