Not to mention the incoherence of shouting both “permanent ceasefire now” and “free Palestine.”
The latter is presumably a call for Israel to cease to exist. Since 🇮🇱 isn’t going to negotiate itself out of existence, it’s a call for war.
So they both want and don’t want war.

I think that’s become clear to them. On the FB post, first they purged all the commenters who objected (the majority). Then they deleted the post. Lots of comments like: “I’ve always supported trans rights but this just doesn’t seem fair” met with total intransigence by TRAs.

Left out of this debate is the real reason TRAs are so preoccupied with intersex conditions: they are needed to justify the claim that gender is a spectrum. And that latter claim is needed so that, most especially, (non intersex) males with penises can claim to be women.

It isn’t being “weaponised” by Israel. The pro-Palestine movement is absolutely rife with it. The very claim that this conflict is a “genocide,” has as a hidden premise the idea that “Jews are uniquely evil.” How else to explain that this conflict alone is singled out?

None of that is true. You seem to think that one batch of Ethiopian immigrants is all there are. Most Israelis of Ethiopian descent came to Israel in the 1980s and 90s. This story dates from 2012. It was in no sense a "eugenics" programme. Israel is majority non-white.

That story is bullshit. The women were given Depo Provera, which is the most popular form of contraception in Ethiopia. It is not a sterilant. There was some misconception and a small minority reported after the fact that they didn't want it. Nobody got sterilised.

Jonny texted his sister: "They're here. They're burning us. We're suffocating."
The whole family was burned alive, to ashes.

Just look up the “crude death rate” for Gaza. In 2021 it was 4 (per year, per 1,000 population). Probably higher now with the stress on the “health care” system. But even at 4, that means 8,000 natural deaths per year. 4,000 in 6 months.

Even if “gender” were a “social construct” how exactly would that make it a matter of individual choice? Money is a social construct but does that mean I can, on my own, decide that a €20 note is worth €100? What TRAs really think is: strike the “social.” It’s just a construct.

You're highly confused. The killing is not "OK," but it is legal and the only option because Hamas (who must be destroyed) hide among the civilian population.
If a population increases during the exact period of an alleged genocide, that's prima facie evidence of no genocide.
