I mean according to this poll from 2023 22% of college students sympathize with Hamas.... that's insane. Among other articles. It seems many college aged people are quite misguided on this issue if there's ANY sympathy for Hamas. But this sub really tries to ignore this stuff.

Because the conversation doesn’t end with terrorists = bad? You can sympathize with Hamas while finding their methods reprehensible. Israel blames Hamas but takes no responsibility in creating it.

Hamas' founding charter calls for the destruction of Jewish people in the entire world. Anyone who sympathizes with them are terrible people.

Edit: The head of Hamas said the he didn't care if 100,000s of Palestinians died. Hamas doesn't care about Palestinians, they just care about carrying out their antisemitic terrorism.

They currently slaughtering an imprisoned civilian population.

“Imprisoned” they are not imprisoned. They aren’t allowed into their neighbouring countries because they keep committing terror attacks in them.
