It isn’t just risky, but I feel many times it ends up legitimizing the groups you’re trying to protect others from.
Fascists don’t need you to justify their fascism.

Isn’t LINE more like Whatsapp? I’ve never heard of it having a Reddit-like function.
I mean Zionism’s core tenet is literally Make Israel Great Again so that’s probably not a coincidence. Interfascist solidarity also counts for a lot here.
I mean fearing death is human instinct and not really something based in logic.
More than that Japanese people have a completely different sense of humor from the stuff you usually see in the West. Even a fluent but non-native speaker will have a lot of their jokes fall flat simply because the Japanese and Western conceptions of a joke are very different. In what way? I have no idea, still trying to figure it out. I don’t know if that gap is that big in other cultures, but definitely best to just not.
Okay where do you even see Japanese posts?
I like how he thinks he’s on the left. But then again many people seem to think the Democrats are on the left so maybe I can’t blame him.
Obligatory life expectancy was only low due to child mortality, so people who survived childhood could reasonably expect to make it to 70.
Either way the post didn’t explicitly or implicitly encourage violence and should’ve stayed up.
Why do you think that the person who made the meme used Luigi Mangione instead of Bernie Sanders?
Because Luigi everything has been getting censored by establishment media?
Just pirate it.
They’re definitely dying in Europe. The YoY sale numbers are horrific.
Not every comparison is whataboutism.
This particular comparison is one Zionists love to make to discredit the Palestinian cause, though, so I tend to view it with suspicion. That said, with the assumption that you’re talking in good faith I’ll try to address your point.
This looks like more “Israel Bad” virtue signaling than it does helping Palestinians.
Boycotting settlements is one way to either strongarm the Israeli government into not expanding settlements (which make no mistake are built with their blessing) or disincentivise their expansion by making it economically disadvantageous. To quote the article:
Critics say that doing business in these areas normalises and provides revenue for these settlements. Support which has landed Airbnb on the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement’s list of international companies complicit with Israeli violations of Palestinian rights.
Another quote:
Sari Bashi, programme director at Human Rights Watch, said that, in allowing properties in Israeli settlements to be listed on their sites, “Airbnb and Booking.com are contributing to land grabs, crippling movement restrictions and even the forced displacement of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, abuses that Israeli authorities commit in order to maintain oppression and domination over Palestinians as part of the crime against humanity of apartheid”.
This isn’t virtue signaling; it’s one of the few things someone in a Western country can do to help the Palestinian cause without getting into direct action. And how do you know it works? Because Zionists fucking hate it.
Like I said before, if a large number of Native Americans launched a credible campaign (as in one with specific, achievable goals like “we want X land for Y reservation”), they’d also be well within their rights to call for a boycott on that land until their demands are fulfilled and at least I personally would support that boycott. The logic in your comparison works, but not in the way you’re implying.
Edit: Aaand no reply.
then shouldn’t we be boycotting these platforms until they are out of non-native USA and Canada?
I mean if Native Americans launch a credible land return movement and ask for it then sure yeah. Right now that’s not the frontline of the Native rights movement, so you’ll need to find another whatabout (whataboutist???) argument.
Except for native speakers maybe?
Exactly. This is a less egregious example of the they’re/their dilemma.
Should’ve been “A Ukrainian” probably.
Wow, Africa’s Fediverse game is weak.
c/fuckcars strongly objects.
So, if it wasn’t them being blundering idiots, and it wasn’t them deliberately doing this…what the fuck DID happen?
An error in the simulation, probably.
It seems it went hard in the other direction with conspiracy theories and what not, but mostly yeah.
Don’t forget to praise Stalin first.
