    But you better recognize that there isn’t too much that differentiates you from those snipers

    Hard disagree; the snipers, much like most of the IDF, despise Palestinians and don’t see them as humans. Saying it’s a problem of following orders blindly is like saying the KKK had a problem of people following orders blindly. During peaceful protests the IDF competed with who could shoot the most knees; this is not a following orders problem, it’s a nature of settler colonial society problem.

      You’re right, but I’m gonna flip the script anyway

      There is not a significant difference between the way IDF soldiers treat Palestinians and the way carnists treat animals. When you cease to see a being as deserving of human freedoms, you become a monster.
