Still here, way less inclined to waste my time. I'm just not going to waste my time on the centrists who insist that the left is small and unpopular so we should only cater to the right of the democratic party. They were wrong, we're fucked because of it, but they want a punching bag to try and alleviate their feelings and I don't care to be that anymore.

I'm seeing ton of leftists post about it on the good parts of Lemmy like hexbear. Don't know why libs don't care about genocide 🤷

I don't care what you think. Stop punching left and start punching Nazis

Some of our lefty brothers need to know that no state or social oppression and violence for any reason is acceptable. I apologize for my prejudice. Intolerance to the intolerant.

Pretty sure they probably got deported after Trump signed that executive order to deport pro-palestinian protestors.

They're over here, and they don't want to end up over there. So they probably are staying quiet cause the guy they helped elect wants to send them over there, wherever that ends up being.

because they were all protesting biden and the left, now we can't protest biden and left because he's retired on a beach somewhere.

You could protest trump, i guess.

Realistically, i think the protests just died out when the college students stopped caring, those were the only people actually protesting.

Idk if you know this but there is a ceasefire right now. Most of the protests i went to were in response to some escalation or atrocity: new "aid" package being sent, expansion of the war into Rafah, expansion into Lebanon, ground forces going in etc. People tend to protest against escalation events but we are currently in a period of deescalation.

You should expect to see them again in response to trump's latest proposal, it's not going to happen overnight since this came out of nowhere, or when the first phase of the ceasefire expires and people protest to keep it going.

Also wtf is this aneurysm posting "it went from free Palestine to the Rivera of the middle east in 16 days" what does that even mean? And they say the pro-palestine people are bots.
