    Some of us have a lot of experience with Linkerbaan. This person spam comments incessantly like it’s a full time job.

      Well I dunno, defending Palestinians doesn’t sound like spamming to me. I’d call it solidarity.

        There’s absolutely nothing wrong with defending Palestinians. Based on my interaction with them, Palestinians are the last people Linkerbaan cares about. This is cosplaying online for clout. They are confusing the map with the territory where the aesthetic of signaling support for Palestinians has long ago superseded fostering actual solutions that will improve the lives of Palestinians.

          I have, and this is why when you say

          I really don’t see what you are referring to.

            Because they are extremely selective of the articles they post and highly reactionary / vitriolic when anyone pushes back or challenges their arguments. They also offer zero charitability to any of their interlocutors. They are also ready to label anyone as a) defending genocide b) Zionist c) [insert derogatory label here] faster than you can say ‘Hamas’.

            They are uneven in their media literacy discernment and extremely selective in what they post/how they present. An opinion blog post that favors Hamas is ok but a UN report that counters a claim by Hamas is placed under the most intense forensic analysis.

            In other words, they are here for the cosplay.
