Fun fact, actually the drummer of SOAD is a Trump supporter. Serj has said he's mystified about it. You're right about the other three members though.

"Far left" here, we generally understand the need to vote blue no matter who in this election. It's pretty obvious.

Sure, if you want to phrase it that way. Just slightly different motivation.

The point is to get us talking about it. I'd say they succeeded.

Even if this were true (which it isn't), the penalty for bigotry isn't indiscriminately killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians.

It must be something more substantial in this case, tearing the windshield wiper off wouldn't brick the truck

Not defending Tesla, but that wasn't a cybertruck

The problem is that according to due process, you need to prove somebody is guilty of something before they are jailed. These people weren't jailed, they were basically executed from a distance. The burden of proof is on the Israeli military to prove that they WERE Hamas, not on people horrified by the footage to prove the negative. And so far (and historically) the IDF seems to not care to do so, and in lots of cases have given "proof" as justification for one action or another that later turned out to be bullshit.

Not to mention the numerous cases of the IDF killing people in "Press" vests and helmets, or people literally actively waving a white flag. In my opinion, they don't deserve the benefit of the doubt given their record.

To be fair, trump chose to deplatform himself in the same way during the primary and that didn't seem to affect his chances.
