Probably should be protesting the terrorist organization of Hamas and not supporting them...
They are a cancer that needs to be removed in order for everyone to live in peace.
I agree. As one of the seemingly few here. Crazy how biased Lemmy is on some topics.
I know several Jewish people who told me that they're going to vote for Trump and the Republicans because they're the only ones supporting them.
I know several who said they wont
I know several Jewish people who voted for Trump in 2016. People are willing to do all kinds of terrible, short-sighted things for flimsy justifications.
The really funny part is, it's not like Biden or the Democrats have even been supporting the protests (outside of a small handful like The Squad and Bernie, the latter of whom isn't even really a Democrat).
Can someone explain for the unread what they are doing that caused someone to "break it up?"
I understand PROTESTING but were there justifying instances of damage, looting, violence?
Please, if you're just as uninformed as me don't comment. There's enough people just shouting shit these days.
Why don't we all go join them? (Don't want to hear your excuses I'm not accusing anyone)
Maybe we can start something.
Would love a list of protests happening in campuses near me. Not sure how to find that info.
Because fuck this nearly century-old ethno-religious blood feud.
If peace-loving people on both sides got together and decided to institute a single government that upholds the rights of all, this would end tomorrow. But they don't. Because the reality is both sides would prefer to wallow in their anger and hate than actually solve the problem.
I'm not gonna waste my time protesting for Israelis to unilaterally impose their way on Palestinians, and I'm not gonna protest for Palestinians to unilaterally impose their way on Israelis. And no one is asking me to protest anything else. So there's no solution, it's all just a big waste of everyone's time.
