    Hmm… I have a few things to say here (not in any particular order):

    1. It goes without saying that calling them Paleosimians (and in one instance, “savages”) while also saying that they (meaning Palestinians in general) are terrorists is not just racist, but klansman-level racism. It is honestly indistinguishable from what you might see being said about non-White people back in thd 1800’s. I am not sure if it is easy to find people so racist (they are usually a bit more subtle and talk about the “culture” instead of this).

    2. Says that Palestine has attempted a genocide on Israel, yet if you look at the population of Israel on the same website, you can see that it has increased in the same way that Palestine is reported to have increased … so by their own logic, neither committed genocide or both did.

    3. Star Trek is a fictional show. Also, is there any religion in Star Trek? And on an unrelated note, this is like taking 1984 or Animal Farm seriously.

    4. The 28th screenshot really showed how what they say was a lie (Ade Johnar really showed them up).

    5. Trans is not a noun, but an adjective used for people. The use of it as a noun comes across as derogatory (like saying “blacks”).

    6. Trump threatened a genocide of the entire Iranian population while also saying he would save them and incited masses of people to overturn a supposedly rigged election: That is an example of how he hurt people.

    7. This person has no authority to deport illegal immigrants, so who are they to so they will “deport” them? Also, all people that are darker than the shade of the average klansman’s cap are at risk of being deported and have been deported: not just illegal immigrants.

    8. Mentioning their reservation-born Indian wife (reservation is capitalized in an instance for some reason) like it is a shield against criticism means nothing, since traitors to one’s country, race, family, etc., have happened since forever. That just means they have a Native-American wife that is fine with their racism.

    9. They mention that Palestine as a nation has not existed, and while I do not know the exact evidence disproving the Zionist’s distortion of truth, I can say that even if the nation did not exist before Israel (I am certain that it did exist before Israel), Israel is still genociding Palestinians. The excuse that there was no unified nation before any given settler-colonialist government, therefore there was no genocide of them, is absurd because the act of oppression itself gives rise to categories of oppression: The Americans did not oppress the natives of America in significantly different ways, but thought of all as savage outsiders obstructing colonization, and thus oppressed them as one, which in turn gives rise to the category of Native-American (I think one can see the dialectical materialism here, but I cannot explain it well enough in those terms). The need to designate those that are the oppressors and those that are the oppressed manifests alongside settler-colonialism’s colonial ambitions, so the category of the oppressed ends up existing regardless of whether or not the people considered themselves one nation before settler-colonialism.

    Okay, let’s take a closer look at those sources.

    https://www.pcbs.gov.ps/

    *Population estimates were prepared before the Israeli aggression against Gaza Strip on October 7th, 2023. As a result of the aggression, and considering the increasing number of martyrs and missing persons, and the number of those who left Gaza Strip in addition to the decrease in the number of births, population estimates indicate a decrease in the population of Gaza Strip to (2,129,724) persons, a decrease of 6% from what was estimated for mid 2024. The population of Gaza Strip also decreased to (2,114,301) persons, a decrease of 10% from what was estimated for mid 2025.
