PSL deserving no credit for the public consciousness of Palestine because they "didn't found ANSWER" or whatever, vs PSL having "hijacked" ANSWER 20 years ago.
Well, I guess you're not really saying much of anything then. You seem to be implying that PSL is a marginal figure in the Palestinian solidarity movement in the US. You're saying their role in a protest movement is that they... "have a loud voice"? In a discussion about public sentiment around Palestine? These positions are inconsistent.
No, you're implying that PSL deserves an outsized credit in the Palestinian movement and I countered that idea by saying they have an outsized voice because of their loud self promotion through an org that they strong armed during a split from another group - but a majority settler org seizing an outsized voice and taking up more space in an anti-colonial movement doesn't mean they deserve credit. PSL is notorious for taking up space in movements organized by other people for self promotion and otherwise not being present in the actual struggle. You don't want to comprehend this info so you dismiss it but that doesn't do your argument any favors
