    I have no idea where you pulled that information from. I just love how you completely disregarded my comment and immediately went to politics for your defense. I hope you find acceptance from within.

      White people is used as a mass. The majority barely care about the Genocide because Palestinians are brown.

      They were instantly up in arms for Ukraine when Putin killed civilians 20 times slower than israel. Talked all day about how horrible of a man Putin was and his constituents should assassinate him. Now their own governments are supporting actual Genocide and they’ve been real quiet.

        I’m having a hard time following your logic. You’re categorizing all white people as not giving a shit about brown people because of the way western governments & media responded to the two conflicts? I’m not saying you’re not correct to say racism played a role in the way these conflicts are unfolding but seem to be making massive leaps in logic.

        Having the opinion that people should not vote for Biden if he “doesn’t stop the Genocide” is naive and moronic to the extreme. If you care about Palestinians you should be making sure Biden is in the white house next election because Trump and the GOP is absolutely not going to improve the situation. And I fucking hate that it’s obligatory to say this but that does not mean you cannot criticize Biden or think he’s a shitty president.

        Fucking christ people cannot grasp the concept of nuance.

          It’s not even nuance. Trump, ONSTAGE AND IN FRONT OF MICROPHONES, said that Israel should “finish the job”.

            Bidens spokesperson just said israel isn’t even committing any war crimes.

        “Could it be that people were up in arms about Ukraine because Russia’s invasion was almost completely unprovoked, and they were fighting for their independence from a far superior military power, calling to mind for many people America’s own revolutionary war, combined with strong anti-Russian sentiment from both sides of the American political aisle? Could it be that the majority of Americans are hesitant to speak out now since the power that Netanyahu claims to be fighting against really is as despicable as he says it is and deserves to be wiped off the map, just not with hundreds of thousands of Palestinian casualties, and mainstream media that refuses to acknowledge the civilian casualties at all isn’t helping matters?”

        “…”

        “Nah, must be that all white people are racist.”

          Palestinians randomly attacked those people that colonized their land and put them in a concentration camp. It was completely unprovoked.

          Thank you for proving my point that you are literally incapable of empathy with brown people

            Dammit. Again. First sentence. When dealing with leftists, I have to remember they only read the first sentence.

            All of the nuance of the situation aside, for someone who hates stereotypes it seems awfully hypocritical to paint all those people with the same brush.

              The post was written by a white dude. Nuance his sentence a little.

                What does this comment even mean, genuinely? Do you mean the post you are ardently defending, which, by virtue of having been written by a white person, disproves the point you are trying to make?

                  It means that the poster has experienced disappointment in the lack of empathy of people surrounding him which ancestry has not experienced the hardships of oppression.

                    Bro. I did. You just saw someone criticising one of your opinions and got so angry you forgot how to read.
