    No, he did. If I claim to be a computer programmer with 20 years of experience, but dont know the basics of any computer language, that would be an important detail in discrediting me and my “expertise” on the topic. Right? So if someone is saying they are an expert on Israel and Gaza(ie, “listen to me!”) then pointing out that they dont know basic things about the topics is very important. Because the last thing the world needs, is more listening to fucking grifters that only feed into collective outrage.

      Even real experts don’t know every details about their field. The argument that just because he didn’t know about the wall was makes him fake and uneducated about the topic is ridiculous and dumb

        They may not know every detail off the top of their heads, but they will know the basics of their chosen fields. Like every mathematician knows their times tables, right? Whats ridiculous and dumb, is being so balls deep in the culture wars that you refuse to see any negatives of the talking heads you subscribe to, even when they are obvious as fuck.

          Do you think mathematicians know every single theory and influence of mathematic in every civilizations etc?

          The wall could have not existed and zionists would have still occupied palestine because zionism is a supermasist ideology over stupid ancestral claims

          I do not oppose critisism of Hassan, i oppose stupid accusations like him being a scammer who only talk about palestine to makes money or dismissing any influence he has. He at least definitly have more impact than you complaning here

          I never saw Hassan participating in a culture war, i don’t know what you talk about

          but the analogous situation is not a mathematician knowing about times tables. it’s a mathematician knowing about fucking numerology.

      your analogy is not correct. this is like claiming to be a computer programmer with 20 years of experience but not knowing how the computers in star trek work. it’s just bullshit that has no bearing on your opinions on programming.

          no? does no one understands analogies here? the genocide is computer programming in this analogy. the wall is the computers in star trek. it means fuck all and has no bearing on actual computer sciences.

            I do, I might be you who doesnt. I gave a real world analogy of someone pretending to be a master in a craft, and you pulled star trek out your arse for some reason while saying the same thing, but equating observations with Gaza to watching a tv show.

            The man claims to be an expert, but doesnt know the basics of the conflict or the players. What about that are you not getting?

              nope. dude it’s not my fault that you cannot read. I spelled it out for you and you still misunderstand. which means one of two things, you’re a troll who’s deliberately doing it, or just plain fucking dumb. either way you can just ask someone smarter what it means because I tried to tell you like you were five and it didn’t work.

              the wall isn’t and has never been part of the basics of the conflict or the players.
