    No, I heard your gotcha. But the reality is standing to the side telling people “I told you so” is just sticking your head in the sand. You are enabling a worse genocide just for the sake of moral masturbation.

    You might as well tell the people feeding the homeless they are “accepting homelessness” as well. Amounts to the same bullshit logic.

    But when Trump enables a full scale genocide, you can pay yourself on the back and say “I had nothing to do with that”.

      There is no worse genocide. It’s already supported to the hilt. You just support it.

      Probably shouldn’t have done that, huh?

      Go ahead and try to redeem your soul and see you can become a benefit to society instead.

          I have no trouble sleeping, as I have been consistently against genocide and demanded better. It was y’all who took the gamble and lost.

          May you someday redeem yourself after doing some self-reflection.

            I too have been consistently against genocide, I have protested, I have called senators, I have donated time, money, medical supplies, and food.

            I didn’t gamble and lose, I fought the best I can, and will continue to do so.

            I hope you do more than “demand better”, because all your demands amount to is pissing down the backs of Palestinians and telling them it’s raining.

                You are willing to cut off your nose to spite your face. Unwilling to see the bigger picture that your actions support a worse scenario beyond the single issue that your actions will have done nothing to help.

                You know, around the point you mistook me for a liberal, I realized something. Nowhere in this thread have you shown an once of concern or sympathy for Palestine. You have only tried to admonish others and pat yourself on the back. If I knew nothing else about your character, that would be enough.

                Live well, maybe one day you’ll find the redemption you prescribe to others.
