Yup and if said person had acquantainces that are hostages, said person would be protesting against Israel actions and not parroting hasbara.

I remember as a kid playing Final Fantasy 6 and reaching the scene where Kefka poisons the water supply of an enemy castle despite knowing that some of his own side’s soldiers are being held there as prisoners

At the time, I couldn’t help rolling my eyes and thinking “wow, this is just cartoonishly evil, no one would actually do this”

I long for those more innocent days
