>openly support terrorist organizations
If say he sent money to hamas I might agree, but as far as the dialog / discussions surrounding Palestine and Israel these days it seems like any support for civilians on either side is inevitably presumed to be support for the worst crimes of that group's nation support for terrorism or anti antisemitism or such.

And I’d draw a further line between someone trying to enact policies favourable to them (note: not which they might find favour with, that’s much broader) or sending resources their way.
- duxup 2y agoMy point being I have trouble understanding any of what anyone means when it comes to this topic. I’ve seen plenty of folks associate things together that don’t seem to follow. Someone says “pro hamas”… I’m not sure what they think that is.
- JumpCrisscross 2y agoYup. It’s intentionally ambiguous because you have two groups of people talking to themselves, including about how the other group perceives and portrays them. The actual interaction is sparse and frankly horrible, so instead we get two pools of thought careening under their own momentum into increasing incoherence.
- duxup 2y agoYeah that’s what I’ve experienced for sure.
