I feel like a while ago support for Palestine was a bare minimum bar even most liberals could clear. It seems you can't even expect that much. Seen a switch flip in so many liberals, the textbook about-face when they see the oppressed actually start fighting back. Unless, the oppressed people aren't particularly oppressed and wear Nazi symbols, I guess.

That doesn't really sit well with me either. Personally, my takeaway from these anecdotes is not that "these Israeli people deserve to be brutalized". It's that the sheer inhumanity of 80 years of occupation where ten times the brutality happened every single day recontextualizes the few atrocities we'll see amplified in our media showing how barbaric the Palestinian resistance is. I do think that's different from excusing sexual violence, and if anyone does that our mods should be quick to deal with them.
