    Are people on Lemmy actually supporting the Houthis? You know they aren’t just attacking Israeli shipping, right? If I shoot some random person but say it’s to help the orphans that doesn’t make it right.

      Yes, I’ve noticed it here and on Reddit. I’m like, you are supporting folks that think slavery is required by Islam and calling them freedom fighters? The hypocrisy is tangible.

        Oh yes, the americans with their economically required prison slavery and mass incarceration rates are such a bastian of morality in this war by comparison.

        I’m not defending either side here but if i had to choose, the side defending palestine is who I’d back.

            ok, Anon, all humans suck. Now I’ll repost this under every news article, so we can finally stop arguing.

          The accusation that the Houthis support slavery comes from Saudi Arabia and shouldn’t be taken as fact. It deserves to be downvoted.
