Hey, our ‘progressive’ party is doing war crimes.

Oh my god, could you fucking commies shut up and fuck off???

I am glad his performance convinced you to do stuff, may it lead to you effective forms of protest that is actually what we need to help our imperfect world.

People that wouldn’t be fired up if it was done to block legislation?

If you were given evidence of starvation conditions and cutting off of aid from before Trump took office would your opinions on this change at all? Like genuinely did you start paying attention when you could use it against Trump?

Neither does talking for 25 hours, blocking legislation does.

I am open to being convinced it was more than performative, mind sharing the context that makes it more than a show, and instead that it is tangible effects on the fascist machinery of the current state?

“Raising awareness” activism has been such a pernicious tool of pacification for the current era.

Wouldn’t it get more media attention, spread a more encouraging message to do this when there is literally any legislation that he is stopping?

Criticizing praxis of those in power is valid and good, and it’s incredibly frustrating to see democrats remember that they can do things like this only when it doesn’t actually have any tangible effect.

It’s not devils advocate if I just disagree with you.

Kiddo I am an atheist, settle down.

Religon is always the probelm, it’s a control mechanism from thousands of years ago that is no longer necessary in our society, but this dangerous tool is just left lying around for any con man to take advantage of.

Colonizer mindset

Lol someone’s pissy.

I know your position, and share much of it. But I’ve also grown enough to learn that religions exist in many forms, many are cults and evil, but blaming the issues in Palestine on religion is a childish diversion. They were choosing between that and fucking Argentina when deciding where to found Israel and felt it more important to have a foothold in the middle east.

Religion was the excuse.

Settler colonialism is the evil, religion is the excuse.

Can’t stop, won’t stop

Sounds like weakness to me comrade.
