Israel is a barbaric State. on 13:14 - May 19 by victorywilhappen | interestingly some of those arguing for recogntion of collective memory of all sides argued it did not exist in October. But the opinion I posted earlier was that it strikes me that the OP was designed to create another argument. Thank you for adding further evidence that this is correct. |
Go and tell it to Rupert Sheldrake. Maybe he can give a satisfactory explanation as to why Israel is carrying out war crimes. |  |

Israel is a barbaric State. on 13:07 - May 19 by leitrimblue | I disagree. I'd say at this moment I only have sarcasm and dark humour left. Any views on the importance of collective memory/ cultural identity of Palestinian peoples versus that of Isrealis? |
No. It's sunny & I'm off to do the mowing. I just want the remaining hostages to be released, certain ME coutries to retract their avowal to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, israel to stop illegal land-grabbing & indiscriminate killing/destruction, Hamas to stop using an entire civilian population as human shields, and, generally, human beings to stop all their horrifying, stupid wars with each other & to unite over the much bigger threat of climate change facing every sngle human on earth. Not much to ask really. |  |

You were arguing that genetic memory (as in inherited) existed, something which isn't scientifically proven and the consensus is that it doesn't exist. Collective memory is the sharing and passing down of stories and knowledge. They are totally different things and you shouldn't be trying to equate them. SB |  | |  |

I should as it is under serious research. Even if it's not by you. So to suggest collective and genetic are not interconnected doesn't add to some new research you may not yet have access to. So to dismiss all concepts that are yet mainstream could put you an area where nothing new is discovered and no new research is valid or worthy. Or any idea or conversation that isn't linear is rubbished outright. In this case, I believe you are not fully informed. But we can agree to disagree. Enjoy the afternoon. I'm off for a hike in the Alpilles, burn off all that cheese and wine from last night. [Post edited 19 May 2024 14:20]

They are entirely different things. Even if genetic memory is under research they are still different things. "So to dismiss all concepts that are yet mainstream could put you an area where nothing new is discovered and no new research is valid or worthy. Or any idea or conversation that isn't linear is rubbished outright. In this case, I believe you are not fully informed." I believe this to be a false argument, you are applying too much weight to theoretical research which is at this moment completely unproven. You are essentially attempting to give it equal weighting to established and proven science when that isn't appropriate at this stage. Enjoy your hike, that sounds lovely as does the cheese and wine.

Israel is a barbaric State. on 08:47 - May 19 by victorywilhappen | This OP was created for division and point scoring not debate. In my opinion. |
From my limited interaction with Banksy, I would say that he is a genuine caring person who strongly believes in Palestinian rights and is disgusted by Israel's response to the "barbarity" of 7/10. He was, and continues to be very supportive and interested in one of my daughter's mental well being after she struggled badly during lockdown. So I don't believe he is starting these threads to cause arguments That said, he struggles to see Israel in any positive light and jumped the gun with some of his posting in the days that followed 7/10 whilst the burning bodies were still smouldering. Most of those posts are no longer available to view. What I will add is that although Banksy doesn't start these threads for a reaction, there are two or three posters who have previously expressed troubling views regarding Jewish people who do join his threads for the sole purpose of trolling those of us with Jewish heritage and Jewish family members. The thread then doers tend to go off track as people are more interested in getting a reaction from other posters rather than the subject being discussed. Sadly we have to share the same virtual Oxygen with them on this message board. [Post edited 19 May 2024 14:52]

"Jumps the gun" After last week's arfarama and several incidents before, you'd think you'd engage your brain before accusing others of the same. But there we are. |  |

Some can't seem to help theirselves. Posting falsehoods, attempting to smear other posters as supporting murderers and rapists. It's pretty blatant and pretty vile. That some forum users want to use the deaths of innocent Palestinian civilians as a football is disgraceful. Caught out lying, again and again. Some.people spend so much time in their Twitter echochamber that they become insensible and detached. It's very unhealthy to sit refreshing your curated right-wing, pro-zionist wonk feed all day every day. And then, even worse to post that unsubstantiated, vitriolic ballcocks on here for others to see. Shame. Sad but a shame. [Post edited 19 May 2024 17:36]
