I have been banned from unpopularopinion for exposing person defending genocide and use of human shields by IDF.
One of the users in unpopularopinion thread was complaining about someone calling him a “fascist”

In response I did paste a screenshot of his comment claiming IDF are not using human shields, it is Hamas who do that:

… And the mod of unpopularopinion banned me. I can only guess he is a another genocide apologist.
Rendering immune from military operations also involves posing civilians as military personnel for the purpose of distracting enemy combatants and drawing their fire. Think the Joker’s plan from the Dark Knight - if you put fake guns and fake uniforms on civilians for the purpose of having the enemy attack them instead of the real target that is a human shield.
They are not serving. That is conscription, and would involve arming the personnel or otherwise having them perform the expected duties of military personnel. They are being placed unarmed intentionally in the line of fire in a way that military personnel would never be used, so they are not being forced to serve.
Fair point - can’t really argue with that. I guess it counts then. I was wrong.
