Not my truth, the objective reality that can easily be seen of daily massacres of Gazans. No position was abandoned, it is both the relative and objective moral position to fight against the IDF and Zionism in general. And currently that requires violence as they are in a state of war and will kill those that oppose them. “DEATH TO THE IDF” is like a warcry, it’s not supposed to be a rhetorical position, it’s a call to inspire and motivate the resistance against Zionism and genocide.

  They already do say “Death to Arabs” in Israel and use all sorts of logic to justify their atrocities. And death to an ethnic group is a bit different than calling for the death of a terrorist organization.
  
  en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_genocide
  
  Israel is committing genocide in Gaza against the Palestinians during its ongoing invasion and bombing of the Gaza Strip as part of the Gaza war.[39][40][41] The acts of genocide described by experts and human rights organisations include large-scale killing, use of starvation as a weapon of war, destruction of civilian infrastructure, attacks on healthcare workers, and forced displacement. Various observers, including United Nations experts,[42] the UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories Francesca Albanese,[43] and Human Rights Watch have cited statements by senior Israeli officials that may indicate an “intent to destroy” Gaza’s population in whole or in part, a necessary condition for the legal threshold of genocide to be met.[42][44][45]
  
  As I said there is widespread agreement that Israel is commiting a genocide against the people in Gaza. There is no way for all people to agree on one objective reality or truth, but most people can see and agree that Israel is committing genocide and must be stopped.
  
  If you disagree with that view of reality, you may as well argue with me that there is no moon or the stars are a projection.
