Social media is an absolute mess right now.
But I must say that I’m pleasantly surprised to see that many folks are pushing back and acknowledging “how we got here”.

Yeah I should've nuanced that better. We're ruthless with kinfolk but docile when it comes to external actors. I've literally seen situations where one tribe refuses to sell land to our tribe, threaten us with machetes---then turn around and sell all their lands to Chinese, Lebanese at discount.
To attain Power, we need to have visionary leaders in succession setting the tone and guiding the agenda. If they're consistently murdered like we've seen throughout history then its tougher to get to a postion where we have power. Essentially, I'm agreeing with your take here.
Liberals basically gave up and joined the bloodthirsty chorus that's permeated every level since this whole thing started. In canada and Europe they're talking about arresting people if they manifest support for Palestine. This is not normal at all.
This feels like early 2000s when daring to say anything about Iraqi children or against the War in Iraq in the US was career-suicide. They've essentially re opened that playbook.

You really haven't been paying attention. Cacs used make Black lynching photo cards as souvenirs, in the 1900s.

This is literally common sense but that's not allowed right now in the fog of war. This will be like Iraq War where down the road people will express "remorse" for not having stood up to bullying and injustice.
But It will be pointless window dressing because the geopolitical objectives would've been achieved regardless.

Should be frontline imo
It's not like they're going to reap the benefits for the few years they have left

The contrast in reaction to schools, hospital bombings in Ukraine vs Palestine couldn't be more pronounced. Are we supposed to believe that if Russia had cornered millions of blond hair, blue eyed Ukrainians and was bombing them relentlessly---we would all be accepting this as collateral damage??
If this doesn't settle once and for all that there's a hierachy in whats considered a life worth saving, then we'll never get it.
This is the problem with any of this discourse.
Just say you believe Israel over the oppressed Palestinians
You or me aren’t over there living and dying over this rhetoric.
For the record, cacs ain’t shyt. They caused this whole thing and isreal deserves way more smoke than they have gotten over the years. And the USA is complacent in all of this.
But, as a person sitting at home in my comfortable house in my comfortable city the only people i can advocate for are the people who have zero power over where they are and what happens next. I feel for those people, as the rest of the world fights over how they feel about the people that create and perpetuate the suffering.
So just Russia. Biafra and the Jews both lost 6 million a piece in both wars. Mainly children in the Biafran war were lost

I thought we cared about women and children sufferingGive all of Palestine back to Palestine. If they decide to sell any land to the former Israelis then fine and if not...All of those nations that supported Israel will surely welcome them as refugees.
Moving people is not sufferingI thought we cared about women and children suffering
Concentration camps are suffering
