You’re being dismissive and accusational. I’m not defending the lack of recognized Palestinian borders. Just the opposite. For a platform full of pro-Palestinian people, I’m very disappointed in the ignorance I’m encountering. Their lack of recognized borders is a massive factor in this conflict, and I’m surprised it’s not only virtually unknown, but is considered scandalous to even point out. No matter how many nations recognize Palestine as a nation, they won’t have their own borders until they are recognized as a country.

"You see, Ukraine is not a location because if the Russians kick out the Ukrainians and then rename it, it's no longer called Ukraine. Because... the Russians currently don't recognize Ukraine and that that means it doesn't exist right now!"

That sure seems to be the argument. And now they have the gall to ask me what question they left unanswered. Amazing. I think I'll let them try to figure that one out on their own.

[–] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

I answered the above question earlier.

I didn't think you would ever answer my questions.

I can't bear people who just stubbornly refuse to even acknowledge they were asked questions they won't answer. Just be honest and say you won't answer the question and save everyone some time.

This conversation is over.

I’m honestly not trying to upset you. I’m sorry if I did.

I’m trying to be clear about the legality of the problem. What is the question that I left unanswered?
