Strawmen and baselessly accusing anti-authoritarian pacifists of being tankies won’t convince anyone that waiting 164 days to call for an end to a genocide is in any way acceptable.
Most politicians will play it safe and stick with the most popular opinion for their voter base, or just stay silent.
Sanders, AOC and the protesters helped to turn the tide, which is the reason some politicians speak out now. Those new voices will continue to change public opinion, force others to speak out and apply more pressure.
You rather want this not to happen?
I thought, getting people and politicians to agree that Israel needs to be stopped was the goal?
And why would it be “too late” while Palestinians are still dying?
Oof, lemme just tell the living Gazans dont matter bc the same lemmy tankies as ever dont find them useful to their narrative if we help em. 😪
That’s nowhere near what I said and you know it.

Ah yes, the underdogs of the current ruling party of the unites states turned the tide
You’re right, it was the communists on Lemmy.
We should probably ask those who died.
They don’t seem to matter to their elected leaders, otherwise this all would have ended in October.
They’re people, it’s fucked seeing them being used as human shields and political pawns.
