    Israel is doing a genocide, the us and its puppets are funding or arming the genociders, and Europe is banning protests of the genocide.

    Western capitalist hegemony is a fascistic death cult that will destroy us all unless we destroy it first, and every day we don’t millions are condemned to horrific deaths

      I really wish I could have a permanent record of everything every liberal has ever said so I could easily demonstrate how full of shit they are in 10 to 20 years when they all collectively deny ever having supported Israel through the Palestinian genocide.

        I'd say, "It's the Internet", but these days institutional powers seem to be able to convince even Internet archives to remove shit that's too inconvenient for them.

          To believe this is uncommon sentiment would be naive

              what do you call walling in 2 million people and cutting off food water and fuel then bombing the shit out of the walled enclosure? Israel is doing genocide right now it doesn't matter if its official or not

          Isreal is currently perpetrating a genocide against the Palestinian people. Kind of hard to argue they don't want to when it's exactly what they're doing.
