    I’m not sure if you’re genuinely a bit slow but “human shield” is not just a concept from Wikipedia or the only place one might learn about it, but it’s just an easily approachable resource. Human shield is defined similarly by other orgs too like United Nations, International Criminal Court etc. You can search the term online have all kinds of people using the term

    Here’s one from Nigeria https://edition.cnn.com/2022/05/03/africa/nigerian-president-kidnapped-victims-intl/index.html

    Surely Muhammadu Buhari is not a white supremacist?

    There’s a gazillion similar articles. I can link to them if you wish.

    Do tell, apologist… do you think it’s merely a coincidence that all of Israel’s traditional supporters are all countries with deep histories of white supremacism, antisemitism and colonialism?

    What does this have to do with the concept of human shields…? I feel like you’re again avoiding the questions and the actual topic.

    That’s because I don’t have to.

    I guess that’s true but it does give off a bit of an either uninformed or cowardly (sorry) feeling. You don’t have to argue, but it would definitely help and make the conversation better.

    Aaaaand …

    This is as straight as it gets, genius - I’m not the one buying into white supremacist propaganda… you are.

    So for you the concept of human shield is just white supremacist propaganda?

    It’s a bizarre take to me. I’m not sure if you genuinely believe that. Someone holding a person at gun point to prevent someone on firing them, I don’t believe you think that has anything to do with white supremacy, but you don’t believe in calling that a human shield?

      you’re genuinely a bit slow

      Which one of us is regurgitating white supremacist propaganda, Clyde? Which one?

      What does this have to do with the concept of human shields

      Are you asking what the white supremacist settler-colonialist propganda you are regurgitating on here has to do with white supremacism? Is that what you are asking?

      either uninformed or cowardly (sorry) feeling.

      Again… which one of us is regurgitating white supremacist propaganda? Me or you?

      It’s a bizarre take to me.

      White supremacists always seem taken aback when their white supremacism is pointed out to them… perhaps it’s my fault for expecting too much from an “ubermensch” - after all, you’ve never lived up to your own hype, have you?
