    Try making the revolutionary suggestion that civilian deaths in the current Israeli/Palestinian conflict are a bad thing.

    IMPORTANT: be extra careful not to take a side. Only express sorrow and frustration towards the deaths themselves. Don’t cite specific instances, or comment on the race or religion of the victims or perpetrators.

    See how many downvotes and self-righteous rants you get simply for showing basic human empathy. People LOVE to make assumptions.

      It’s fucking crazy, isn’t it? Then again, I think the internet attracts people that want to argue in bad faith without repercussions.
