    The more common correlary was to sit on one’s hands and provide consent for genocide or to try to vote shame on support of genocidal candidates.

    Though I think you know that those who stand with Palestine tend to be more politically active than your typical Democratic voter. I know I don’t see your type in the streets or running education programs or building connections to support Palestinians directly.

      Oh my, my type? Goodness, you know, I didn’t see your type either now that I think about it! When I went to protests and meetings in my community, I’m afraid I didn’t see you there, I only saw people who we trying to actually help people, you know, the ones that knew they were between and rock and a hard place, but actually tried to not hand the government over to a blood thirsty racist, while making sure the community was informed in what steps to take should he win and are now continuing to rally and make their voices heard instead of “not VoTiNg fOr GeNoCiDe” which, you know, kind of got us here.

      But perhaps it’s scary to stand for a belief off of the internet, but I’m unfamiliar with the feeling because my mom didn’t raise a bitch.

      Don’t worry, we’ll handle it, sport. You just stay safe inside, okay? ♥️

        Speaking about this as if they are over and not something ongoing says a lot. I’m leaning towards this just being a lie.

        I have never seen a pro-Palestinian protest with that message. That just sounds like you projecting your armchair liberal takes onto other people.

        The people who organize pro-Palestinian protests are socialists and allied Palestinian groups, occasionally JVP. And while JVP is milquetoast and weak, even they aren’t that mealy-mouthed.

        But perhaps it’s scary to stand for a belief off of the internet, but I’m unfamiliar with the feeling because my mom didn’t raise a removed.

        I wonder what slur you used while calling yourseld a good person.

        It id also telling that this is the only part of my comment that you replied to.

          What slur? Now you really have loss me. People in my community were realistic about what we could get done on 11/5. We didn’t call anyone a slur, we’re not Republicans. Naive? Foolish? Maybe, but what slur? I’m not calling myself a “Good” person, but I’m am calling myself a politically involved and empathetic beyond what is comfortable for me. I’m sure you also feel like you’re a good person, and maybe you are, I only know you from this interaction. But I’m at peace with what I did on 11/5 because I didn’t stop working.

          I’m fine being down voted knowing that I did and will continue to do what I can. Just like I’m sure you’re fine feeling that you did and/or are doing the same.

          I’m sorry, I’m just so angry that we are in this position, and that it’s even worse. It’s very, very frustrating (though I’m sure it’s the same for you).

          Still not sure why you think we’d be walking around calling people slurs though 👀

          Edit: Whoops, their account is gone I think? Sorry. I swear I didn’t report. 🙏🏾

              Ah! It was the word “b*tch.” I thought he was saying a racial slur. Didn’t even notice 😂
