    Don’t worry - the Terminally Online Leftists will change their tune from “It won’t change the election” to “If Palestine gets genocided by Israel, it’s only fair minorities in the US are genocided too”.

      People will do what they want. I’m queer, neurodivergent, and an immigrant - violence has been done to me and my family for our identity/identities. I am tired of it.

        I love how your argument changes from “Even if we can’t change it we have to oppose it, no matter who it harms!” on Palestine to “We can’t do anything about it and we shouldn’t try” when it comes to potential US genocide. 10/10, no notes.

          I don’t think you know what an argument is? Me being tired of human violence against the outgroup is not an ‘argument’, it is merely my experience.

          I think you might be less good at talking and listening than you are at being angry that people don’t seem to agree with you. This might be why people work so hard to make a world which harms people. That world is definitely what makes me tired of it.

            Yet that experience is what you invoke as a defense when your position of allowing genocide is attacked. Rather sounds like an argument.

            ‘Experience’ is not some magical word that absolves you of responsibility for your positions.

            I think you might be less good at talking and listening than you are at being angry that people don’t seem to agree with you.

            Sorry, I’ll try not to be angry at people calling for my genocide because they think it makes them more morally pure in the future. I’ll meekly accept my genocide, like you seem determined to.
