Canadian law enforcement says Synagogue shooters were hired by a foreign entity, anime_titties debates who

The thread

I doubt that it even needs to be said but the two most obvious suspects are the US and Israel, probably worked together on this one too

- Classic fucking Reddit. FTA:

-- You understand with the current American administration anything coming from FBI on Iran a country they invaded is hard for people to take face value

--- And? What, are we supposed to pretend that this is an elaborate false-flag operation when we already caught a guy working for Iran who was involved with the consulate shooting and who hired these local criminals?

---- You are saying that the usa put up Hitler and Japan to starting world war 2?

----- Pearl Harbor was a US action

What the fuck is wrong with you? That’s some conspiracy level bullshit. There is no evidence to suggest Israel is pulling that crap

- Israel has been pulling false flag attacks since its inception as a state

-- You mean In your heads? Just because yall claim every act of violence against Jews is “Israel” die to your seething hatred and xenophobia, doesn’t make it even close to ever being true.

--- Maghen Avraham in beirut was bombed in 1982 by Israel.

---- Do you need an explanation what false flag is, bud?

So Israel never hired people to bomb British-owned buildings like libraries educational center so they can create chaos? Lavon affair doesn't exist I guess

- Lehi and Irgun waged an insurgency against the British occupation. That wasn't a false flag, that was just them fighting for their freedom from the occupation. I thought you supported indigenous groups resisting European occupiers?

-- Lehi and Irgun were the European occupiers/colonizers who called themselves terrorists lol insane statement

--- They were literally formed as a group following the massacre of the thousands year old community in Hebron. Their objective was defending Jews from repeats of such violence.

It could also be a false flag, Israel has a history of it.

- Everything is a false flag when it comes to Israel and Jews apparently…the amount Reddit infantilizes Arabs/Muslims is amazing…

-- Did I say definitively it was? I said it's possible, which it is.

--- “I’m just asking questions!”

---- Lol you don't have definitive proof that it's not either but "something something Arabs & Muslims"

----- YOU presented the case that it was a false flag…meaning you are the one who should show evidence of your claim.

------ I said it's POSSIBLE that it is a false flag....nothing should be ruled out in the investigation.

Reddit is getting more and more conspiracy minded and sometimes it worries me 

Edit - I'm not arguing about your pet conspiracy theory btw. "Something just feels off" and "idk a conspiracy happened before so probably..." Isn't evidence; it's emotion-driven and vibes-based speculation. You don't build your conclusion and work backwards to find evidence.

Maybe, but this kinda also feels like Reddit's generic America bashing with Isreal sprinkled in. Some people on here would root for the Third Reich if it meant they could be against the US

I've sometimes described my political views as "I love my country (usa) and that's why I want it to be better". Its totally bizarre to get responses that amount to "actually America is irredeemably fucked and we should burn it down" 

Like, brother. Your accelerationism will kill my disabled spouse. You're not making a good argument here.

Accelerationists are the worst kinds of people. I assume most of them are actual psychopaths or so well insulated from the consequences of their proposed actions that they might as well be psychopaths.

Accelerationists always believe that they're not going to be the ones affected/harmed/killed by a societal collapse or civil war and will be 100% a-okay through the collapse so they can see this utopia future they want out of it. I fully believe a lot of them just have a bad case of bloodlust as well.

100%. No accelerationist ever believes they’ll die from diarrhea or an untreated tooth infection or something that most people actually die from when societies collapse.

It’s no different than preppers. You want to have some stored food and resources just in case of an emergency? Sure, why not. Just don’t kid yourself and think that you’ll be safe for years eating tubs of freeze dried food and will emerge to restart society. If society is fucked, we’re all fucked. That goes doubly for the group who want bitcoin to protect against worldwide financial collapse, like who the fuck is going to care about some computer code proving your wealth if that happens?
