@vanillaopinions Who amongst us hasn't bombed 100,000 civilians to death? Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

@lefttwick Idk which idea is sillier, the idea that shoplifting is effective anti capitalist praxis or the idea that capitalism should only be opposed if it's white people doing it.

@cloudbrush @SpaceCatPower There are 3 major differences between the boycott against South Africa and your proposal that is ad-hoc to put it politely:.1. They targeted products *specifically* from South Africa.2. They did it for longer than a week.3. A lot of the boycotts were on the institutional level.

It's the MOVE bombing, something that is freely discussed and criticized on the Internet in America. There's even a Wikipedia article on it!. Now, what happens when I try to look up the June 4th Incident on Baike (China's version of Wikipedia)? Huh. No results.

@biggestjoel Also I'm pretty sure the LGBT people in Gaza don't exactly welcome the IDF airstrikes raining down on them and killing their loved ones either.

@cloudbrush @SpaceCatPower By "institutional", I mean that anti-apartheid activists were able to pressure entire institutions (and not just individual consumer choices) into boycotting South Africa. For example they got the US to pass economic sanctions on South Africa until they ended apartheid.

@LeorSapir "school shooting ideation" is not the same thing as "school shootings". Therefore we shouldn't do anything when some teenager posts a picture of a gun on instagram and puts in the caption "don't go to school tomorrow.".

@purplewaves7 I'm going to say something potentially controversial: to what extent is the ongoing attempt to oppress trans people and push them out of public the sphere in the US/UK, a genocide? What definition is it using? Because it honestly seems incomparable to Palestine/Bosnia etc.

Hi! HKer here. Need I remind you again that you were kicked out of pro-democracy HK/pro-independence Taiwanese circles for your assholery?.We know very well that are a shameless grifter who weaponizes our causes so you can get clout and beg for money. Go fuck yourself.
When millions of Hong Kongers took to the streets for democracy, Western universities were practically silent. When the Chinese Communist Party rounded up millions of Uyghurs, there were no campus solidarity camps. Defining political lesson for me. Never forget the utter.

@revhowardarson I really can't stand this motte-and-bailey thing where Israel simultaneously boasts itself for being a first world country with the most advanced military in the world, while also doing this insufferable uWu smolbean routine whenever they face criticism.

How is this functionally different from neo-Nazi rhetoric of "Jewish people say they were expelled from many countries but they never say why, therefore they must have done something to deserve it".
โMy grandfather was forced to fleeโ is a common thing to hear from People who are pro-Palestinian but they never delve into the why. The pro-Palistnaian narrative is devoid of any historiography of the actions of their political actors and decision-makers.

"No one has a right of return" - guy who defends the State of Israel on the grounds that it is the ancient homeland of a people that were exiled thousands of years ago.
@thecranesbill @arash_tehran The right of return is ultimately a tool for the elimination of Israel. No one has a "right of return" to the place from which his great-grandfather was a refugee. Otherwise the Greeks around Thessaloniki should get half of the real estate on the west coast of Turkey.

The "decolonial Jew of colour" in question:
all zionists is a zionist organisation. 4. Decolonial Judaism . If Judaism has any future it must be actively decolonial, and anti-zionist Jews of Colour need to be on the forefront of what that looks like, that means that they also need to be on the forefront and be in a.

"We want less dead Palestinians"."So you want more dead Jews? Fucking antisemite.".
When people rage about an imbalance in Israeli and Palestinian casualties, they are saying that more Jews should be dead for things to be fair. Those same people have long been on the side of โmore dead Jews.โ.

Who has it worse:. A Eastern European man in an impoverished war-torn country who may be forcibly conscripted at any moment. or. A stupid American?.
Iโm a Black man living in America witnessing destruction and genocidal rhetoric against my people for as long as Iโve been alive. Her people are backed by the USA. Where are our weapons and money? ๐ป.

@BarbieAgitprop My point is that, every country has their share of atrocities, some more than others (US being one of them), the difference is whether they allow their citizens to freely discuss and criticize them.

@EngineerWernher @Esqueer_ 30% of youth in the foster system are LGBT. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure that the percentage of youth that are LGBT are nowhere as high as 30%. Similar disproportionalities happen with homeless youth too.

The Rwandan genocide happened during a civil war when the RPF was fighting the Hutu majority government. Would you deny the Rwandan genocide happened because it "wasn't unprovoked"?.
they genuinely believe that what is happening right now in Gaza (aka an actual consequences of an attack on Israel) is comparable to the Holocaust (aka a genocide that happened actually completely unprovoked).those people cannot get dumber.

@souljagoytellem I still don't get the argument people make in favor of the Houthis. If Israel had colonized/engaged in prolonged bombing campaigns against Yemen then the argument would somewhat make sense, what exactly had Israel done to Yemen when they put "curse on all Jews" in their slogan?.
