Israel apologist are either morally bankrupt or simply brainwashed by propaganda.

NOTHING justifies a genocide.

NOTHING justifies apartheid.

NOTHING justifies ethnic cleansing.

NOTHING justifies settler colonialism.

Brainwashed by propaganda is rubbish. Propaganda is just a lie people can tell themselves because they know they are morally corrupt.

They are not in a cult where the information they are receiving is filtered and spun to the cults agendas.

They can easily go and see what is happening and what their actions or inactions are doing.

The amount of people who will change their minds even when they are presented with conclusive evidence that they are wrong is disappointingly small.

I have better things to do than debating with zealots and idiots.

Dude, I live in South Africa. The original apartheid state. I've had enough debates in this current day with people who still wish for the days under apartheid. And you know what it was always a waste of time.

I was conscripted to a genocidal states army when I was still a kid. Luckily it was during the times of change so I wasn't forced into the horrors that older friends and family were. And they did those things because they believed they had no choice but you always have a choice, which is why they conscript 18 year old children.

But we still should have taken the morally correct path and refused to be a part of that army.

Here is an article from psychology today on cognitive dissonance.

Just so you know my opinion does have some scientific backing. And yes I am aware that one of the options is for the person to change their view but as I've said that's never the people I interact with. Maybe I'm just shit at getting my point across.
