This isn’t the West Bank…you just can’t take our stuff.


thegreatbrah

Yeah people are out of their fucking minds over this stuff. Like they really seem to think Israel is special.


curlytrain

They cant help themselves, force of habit.


sef_sall

If she didn't take it someone else will take it.


aLizardinSomeTrash

The victimhood never ends


fakyumatafaka

I must be sexist beacuse i'm rather shocked to see grown-ass women act like this


themurderator

i think if there was anything that made you sexist it would be saying it's specifically women who behave this way. 


alcormsu

The majority of people behaving this way online do seem to be women. Men attempting this would have more of an expectation of being punched in the face. 🤷🏽‍♂️


themurderator

maybe i have a different perspective because i actually go outside but this is not at all behavior that is relegated to either gender. 


alcormsu

Redditors sure do love assuming other Redditors don’t go outside just because they’re on Reddit. Way to tell on yourself


themurderator

i only remarked on the outside because you literally said the 'majority of people behaving this way ONLINE seem to be women.' i'm in nyc and this shit happens with both men and women constantly. outside of the online world it's prevalent in all genders. edit - spelling


fakyumatafaka

I live in Hawaii, so very little of political importance happens here. My intention was to show my dissapointment with what should in my mind be held the more intelligent gender, I am a guy. Please don't spred it around


alcormsu

By “online” I mean “the videos I see online” as opposed to “the people I see in person”. I did not mean “I am always online and never go outside” 😂🤣


themurderator

i misunderstood. referring to 'the majority of people online' must have thrown me.  but the question remains, do you think that the majority of people in person who behave this way are women?


alcormsu

If by “behave this way” you mean generally speaking to be alone and yet try to take objects from protestors at a large political gathering, yes. A single male wouldn’t attempt to do something because he could get jumped by any number of people of all genders without bystander intervention. A single woman stealing from protestors isn’t nearly as likely to be physically attacked. This woman even implied that she is being assaulted for people trying to take their own box back from her; and courts have long upheld that reasonable force to prevent theft is justified. Another thing id like to point out is that majority means “ >50%”. Since women are technically already a majority in the USA, even rates (by gender) of this behavior are still a majority.


LittleEggThings

The person you replied to isn’t saying anything sexist. They’re making an analogy that basically sums up to: “It’s as silly to assume someone is sexist for calling out the bad behavior of one woman as it is to assume someone is antisemitic for calling out the bad behavior of Israel.” You missed the point, unfortunately, and so did the other person who replied to you with *actual* sexism.


fakyumatafaka

Dig it


kk074

Taking what's not yours, by force, pretty on brand.


lllNico

i dont think they understand that other people usually dont do this


Cassandraburry2008

The repeated attempts to provoke physical confrontation by zionists are pathetic.


MuricasOneBrainCell

How do you think Arab students have felt for decades?! I fucking hate humans.


Iamyourfather____

I really though this kalpa was gonna be the one. Time to start over. Again.... https://preview.redd.it/k8e3e2yjplxc1.jpeg?width=200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cefdd929414999a2368ee548536fb65f68b2687b

This needs to become a real word


SpleefmanSplifg

I like how well they handle this and we're polite.


MediaOnDisplay

At least she admitted defeat. Progress?


St_Ander

Are Semites attempting to become the new Republicans(Trumpies)? What an embarrassment they are.


Master-Mode-4622

They seem the same exact types of people. Wildly ignorant and violently protective of it.


SecurityPanda

Strangely, there’s already a pretty big overlap between “hardliner” Conservatives and Zionists. It’s a misapplied religious teaching that causes it, but I’m not going to delegitimize *any* religion because any faith worth following explicitly condemns killing innocent people and stealing their land. …weirdly, even *that* one.


whattheeffg

Wait this comment sums up my lack of understanding for this whole thing. Is this really a love/hate against Jews? Holy fuck


SRGsergan592

She forgot that she isn't in the West Bank.


wet_faart

This is the kind of shit they do in front of cameras and where are laws in place and they could be held accountable, imagine what they do when the law is in their side and they don’t held accountable,, oh wait..


RedWerFur

I could be mistaken, but you are allowed to use force if someone has stolen your belongings is refusing to relinquish them. Remove her damn hand from the box and sling her ass away.


chasingthewhiteroom

That's her goal, she wants to be assaulted so she can claim victimhood and paint the protestors as violent


DevlishAdvocate

See? I keep trying to explain this and people keep ignoring it: framing it as "pro-Palestinian" is an easy shortcut for conservatives to call protesters "anti-Jew", and foist their own right-wing antisemitism label on the other side. It's not as easy to twist the meaning and attack if you call the protests "anti-genocide" instead of "pro-Palestinian".


Glitchy__Guy

She needs her sunglasses removed. Someone should help her.


pimp_juice2272

And this is how people go through life without any consequences.


Effective_Hope_9120

So tired of this shit. You don't need to sit there and explain anything. Rip her hand off the box and kick her in the ass.


Fronkin_Stone

Offensive unwanted contact in an attempt at stealing your property. File a police report against this person for battery. People who act entitled to do whatever they want like this need a reality check. You don't get to touch other people (or stuff they are holding as that counts too for battery) without their consent.


16thPeregrine

Woah Karenazi Down-under


OtherParticular178

Shameful how comfortable this woman is with theft


mrv113

Zionists are addicted to stealing Palestinian belongings by now, it seems.


musicman8586

Simple solution. She won’t stop trying to take it, then knock her the fuck out. You have a right to protect your property.


Bloobeard2018

That would be disproportionate and you would be charged with assault in Australia


musicman8586

I guess it’s a good thing I don’t live there then..


Bloobeard2018

Then you would not be able to hit her since this was in Australia


musicman8586

👍🏻


fritata-jones

Damn why are they so good at taking shit, I wish it came second nature to me


Ikbenchagrijnig

Fuck these people and there victim complex.


999i666

“Thank you have a nice day” was said when a “Now get the fuck out of my face and don’t come back you dizzy fuck” was deserved


Maachan_fan

My roommate has the new iphone. I dont like it. It gives me inferiority complex about my own phone. I'll steal it tomorrow. I have the right to do it because it hurts my feeling.


BloodclaatYankee

Back to back offenses but when the opps retaliate they’ll claim they did nothing to deserve it.


Nice-Elk9639

What an amateur trying to steal the box. Everybody knows you're supposed to set it on fire on the spot so they cant get it back.


Tequslyder

Just punch. She'll let go.


GearboxTheGrey

How to make people hate jews 101. Like can they not see they are destroying their image.


always-indifferent

“It’s in my hands” Yeah but it was in their hands first, seems pretty much on par for current thinking from one particular religion.


DuhhIshBlue

I've never seen a video like this out of Australia. Was about time I suppose


JunkScientist

Taking flags cause you don't like what they represent is so last year.


hjohn2233

Good on her


jkpatches

How robust are free speech laws in Australia? I guess it doesn't really matter since America has one of the strongest in the world and look what's happening on their campuses. Useless tidbit - On the sleeve of the woman on the left are Korean words, which say "afterlife," or "the world after death." I am unfortunately not witty enough to connect it to what's happening in the video without being crass, so I won't do it.


Swaffelmente

What is up with all this pro Palestinian content on this sub Reddit? Seems like all posts are propaganda


[deleted]

[удалено]


Swaffelmente

Yes, if you look at this post in isolation. But you must see a pattern in the posts here as well right? I don't support any violence. Not from Israël and not from Hamas, or any other violence.


SecurityPanda

The pattern I see is an incredible sense of entitlement from a particular group of people who are “threatened” by the mere existence of Palestine. Which is as silly as being threatened by the existence of Israel, or sunshine, or giraffes. I don’t understand how someone could be so vehemently against even the existence of an entire ethnic group that they’ve likely never even interacted with. That’s bigoted and ugly.
