    It’s quite easy to read that as “all of Israel” without the qualifiers, and I’ve seen many people on here saying just that, so please pardon the confusion.

    I think the distinction is important though, and it’s why I tend to say “fuck the CCP” and not “fuck China.”

    I have no beef with Chinese people, but a lot with the CCP.

      Yeah. If you ignore the context of where it was said, sure, it’s easy to read it in ways not at all implied by the context.

        I dunno man, when I said “they” might have facilitated it somehow, I definitely could have been talking about all Israeli citizens!
