    Maybe that’s the one you want to make but it’s not the one I was commenting on.

      Sure, you can defeat the strawman argument. But can we attempt at discussing the strongman argument?

        If you want to discuss that go right ahead. I have not made any claim that contradicts that and have no interest in arguing against it. I suggest you do so with someone who has and does.

      Yes it was you were just trying to be manipulative with your answer, hamas are actively homophobic and part of an islamist movement which is incredibly homophobic - pretending not to understand this is absurd.

        I have never claimed that they weren’t those things. You are arguing against what you want me to say, rather than what i actually wrote.
