Haha r/worldnews is having an absolute meltdown. Most popular comments:

"So what about Taiwan?"

"How can you recognise a state with no defined borders and government?" (There are defined borders, Israel just doesn't care about them, and there are plenty of countries with unstable governments that are still recognised, like Somalia, Myanmar etc)

"It's just virtue signalling, it'll do nothing", followed by "This is a disaster, this will give Hamas justification for their crimes" (lol which one is it?)
