    With imperial propaganda over Ukraine, it's easy to metabolize it without seeming like an open racist

    But with Palestine it's impossible, a lot of the western public still value the masks they wear when it comes to race and many liberals aren't comfortable tearing them off just yet to support Israel, even if they're generally supportive and enthusiastic about Israel's warcrimes

    So that translates roughly into a general apathy in the west concerning the genocide, which some leftists have confused for widespread discontent over western support for Zionism, which is an illusion generated by social media and bad poll reading
