I genuinely do not know who the bad guys are. S lot of my leftist friends are against Israel, but from what I know Israel was attacked and is responding and trying to get their hostages back.

Enlighten me. Am I wrong? Why am I wrong?

And dumb it down for me, because apparently I'm an idiot.

When you can't support your own arguments, you could of course just acknowledge this or even just not comment at all instead of lashing out at those who can.

It is particularly disgusting when your arguments serve to obscure genocide.
