The worst part about it is that, once you know this, every interaction you have with people saying “bibi is a monster” shows you just how bad faith almost everyone involved in the discourse is. After two years of flattening gaza to raucous cheers, unprecedented land grabs in the west bank, and an unprovoked war against iran you’d think people would have looked into a single government official beyond the prime minister to inform their analysis of Israel’s motivations, but no.
It’s just another empty platitude people can walk out as justification for sitting on their hands while unlimited war crimes play out, day after day, commited by thousands of individuals from the top of the government down to iof privates. No critical thought necessary. Same as the liberals blaming trump as the sole cause of America’s issues. It demonstrates either a lack of awareness or an unwillingness to engage with the larger systemic issues for the sake of avoiding the premise.
I would say these people should be ignored but its more than half of the people in the discourse and like 99% of the people with any real power. Idk what to do about that.

I say the only thing to do is to get angry. Get so mad you go to your window and shout "I’M MAD! I’M MAD AND IM NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANY MORE!’
Awh man what is this from? I want to say Monty python but I’m scared of losing 45 minutes trying to find it
Edit: I never would have guessed it
