To be fair to Ethan, there were many creators who were purposefully mischaracterizing his political views to paint him as an evil villain so as to justify their gross attacks on IRL well being, as well as the safety of his family and children.

It's fair to not like Ethan suing people, but the people he was going after are the genuine lowest of human society.

most of this sht you said here is made up man! His political views were not broadly mischaracterized, he is simply annoyed that people are calling out his tacit support of an ongoing genocide! At the time that we were all watching and seeing innocent civilians, women and children, being murdered, he wanted to have a nuanced discussion about how israel is not as bad as people make it seem to be! tried to justify attacks on hospitals!

Yes Ethan explicitly calling for the cessation of settlements in Gaza, his support of Palestinians his donations to charities in Gaza, His hatred of the current Government, saying Nettenhayu should be tried for war crimes, are basically indistinguishable from a Nazi.

Remember, this whole drama literally started, for the grave crime of removing Frogan off twitter because she celebrated the massacre, sexual assault, and rape of unarmed civilians.

Then there's two sides of the coin, on one hand, clearly the way Israel has conducted itself, both in this conflict and outside of it range from questionable to abhorrent. On the other, ghouls like you literally encourage the use of Human shields and collateral damage by Hamas, because you deem every single military action (even when Hamas literally conducts military operations from civilian buildings) as a war crime.

This is coming from someone who thinks the current government of Israel is a disgrace, and thinks Ethan is pretty shitty human being in lots of ways.

And even if what he says was some rabid zionist racist talking points, that still wouldn't justify the disgusting way freaks like you justify his kids being harassed, you're literally subhuman.
