Comment on Facebook and Instagram Restrict the Use of the Red Triangle Emoji Over Hamas Association
MetaCubed@lemmy.world 2 months agoNow I might just be too stupid to understand what I’m displaying, but last I checked, the red triangle has been a symbol of pro-Palestinian support since the Palestinian Revolt in uhhhh… 1938. It’s possible Hamas might have co-opted it, but then you might as well ban the Palestinian flag as well since that’s the source of the triangle, and it has also existed since 1917, I’m failing to follow how this is a symbol of Hamas

Did they use it as a targeting reticle in 1938?

Are we going to ban using 🍆 if they start using it?

What is this even in reference to? Do you care to elaborate on the propaganda you’re trying to spew, or are you just expecting me to know the same talking points as you?

Seriously? Did you just see the word “Israel” and start arguing without knowing the topic at hand?

Asking you what you mean by calling the triangle a “targeting reticle” absolutely does not mean I don’t know the topic at hand, its me asking you to clarify your argumentation.
