And you're moving to my country?
So I once was involved in a discussion in which I questioned the narrative surrounding the creation and management of the state of Israel, and indicated that my moral compass is quite the different one from many people in this forum. Now I fully understand that people who are brought up to believe a particular narrative will react strongly when they see their beliefs challenged to the core, but seriously, Hate Crimes?
I wouldn't even qualify 20.000 people demonstrating against gay marriage a hate crime. I consider that a misguided expression of a democratic right to disagree. I have never been a member of any military organization, voted left-leaning social parties all of my life, paid all my taxes, have an extensive network of friends from all races and creeds, and have always advocated the equal worth and the equal rights of all human beings on this planet. I am for freedom of expression, freedom of movement and freedom of sexual preference and for the emancipation of women all over the world. As a matter of fact, social injustice has always made me quite angry.
Now just because I am critical of Israel, its propaganda and its actions, I commit hate crimes?
I really wonder what the Palestinians in the tents that recently got beaten the shit out of by 500 policemen in the middle of the night, in their own land, would have to say about hate crimes. Seriously. Netanyahu beats peaceful protesters over the head with billy clubs in order to take the strip of land from them that will make it impossible to have any kind of Palestinian state in the west bank, and because I am critical of things like that, I am the one committing hate crimes?
You ought to get your head examined because you, my friend, are one delusional dipshit.
I suggest you do not move to Europe. I pity the day you will live here and you will get into discussions with Europeans that look at Israel like I do. There are very many that hold the opinion that Israel is an Apartheid regime, and you're going to have to deal with that opinion once you step onto my land and come live in my country. Amsterdam has residents from 180 different countries, and most of those won't see things your way. I wish you all the luck in the world adapting to that notion.
Having said that, you're quite a piece of work. We may have had a discussion once in which I may have stepped on your toes, but you're abusing your power position as a Forum Moderator grossly. You're singling me out by name and opinion, and hanging me out to dry in the village square, ultimately for no other reason than that once upon a time I said something you disagree with. You, sir, turned out to be a turpid asshole.
So why don't you go fuck yourself, you self righteous son of a bitch.
