Can someone please calmly explain how blocking a freeway across an ocean and a country on a different continent, is supposed to have any effect on a political issue in the middle east?

    Last time I was held up by these people, I was on my way to try to pick up my dog’s cancer medication. So no, I don’t sympathize with them.

      Will that’s the point of protests to remind people like you that there are a genocide happening and you government is supporting it.

        It’s all performative. Everybody knows what’s happening there. They didn’t bring attention to the genocide; they brought attention to themselves.

          That’s the point of protests to remind politician that if they dont hear the demands they will lose votes.
