Love it when a whattaboutism misses the point as succinctly as this
I mean, I wouldn't regard it as a filter simply because any self-proclaimed leftist who supported Israeli genocide of Palestine would evoke genuine surprise from me. It's just not something you see very often. This is more a rule of thumb for common disappointing scenarios.
Interesting way to list. Victim, victim, perpetrator.
Israel is not a victim in the same way as the first two due to the power differences, but viewing them simply as perpetrator is a rather myopic view of the whole situation.
