    I’m not taking a side in this conflict, but does anyone else think it’s strange how anyone siding with Palestine gets canceled.

    I read about the dispute and it seems like Mia was being harassed by a stranger and Mia was waiting to leave the mall. It seems there were a few 15 seconds of silence and the woman started to harass her some more.

    It’s really weird to me that there is so much backlash against people who say anything other than absolute support is Israel.

    It makes me wonder why the narrative is so blatantly Israel biased.

      Considering you’re not even taking a side, you’re already part of the problem. One country is committing a textbook case of genocide and another is the victim and rebelling against it. Not taking a side means that you fear what your position would entail.

      Also don’t give me the “its complicated” nonsense. It is the simplest and clearest conflict in West Asia right now.

      But I thought it was only in Soviet China where people’s views are manipulated by dark forces?

      Capitalism and imperialism, whoever controls the capital controls the narrative, and the livelihood of other people.

    Does ‘anti-zionist’ mean anyone critical of Israel’s ongoing war of imperialism? There have been calls of ‘genocide’.

    However, based on Israel’s actions of the past 20-30 years of displacing Palestinians with Israeli ‘settlers’, there is no question that this is a land grab; genocide or not.

      Israel tries to distract us saying who is more terrorist, or who has more democracy, etc.

      That’s just a smoke screen to their land robbery.

      In 1947 they had bought 7% of palestinian land. How did they get 50% + over night?

      That’s all by killing people and stealing.

      Israel blame even God for their genocides along history (just open the old testament/Torah and see it).

      If they can blame even their God, they can surely also blame Palestinians and their babies.

      What a bunch of low level high tech psychopaths
