I can count 2 people out of 5 who responded to you who said something insulting. Although I don’t generally endorse it as an effective means of getting through to people, it is a trivial nothing next to a narrative that vilifies those who are doing armed resistance against colonial occupation and genocide.
In other words, it’s not about you and overly focusing on those who make it about you, who are tired of hearing the words of zionist garbage, is distracting from the point. You should want to support the cause as best you can because you believe in it, not just because people in its orbit are nice to you. Of course, being nice can be a very effective persuasive tactic for a myriad of worldviews, but it does not in itself mean one is on the “right side of history.” Many a “nice” liberal ends up supporting imperialist wars, so…
You put it way better than I did, and I’m one of the two that insulted him. While we are quipping over feelings millions of innocent people are being starved to death in gaza for simply existing. Do any of us really know what starving feels like? It is fucking horrible.
There was no hamas baby killer, and fuck me truthfully if there was I would observe them as someone who is a part of the most traumatised nation on earth not being able to control themselves, its one of those isntances where between a murderer and a victim there are two victim. But the worst bit is, there was no murderer, just a concept of a person to drum up support from those who are indifferent to endorse the killing of millions
