Between this and musing about online trans activism being counterproductive, seems Ms Wu has been replaced by reactionary body snatchers.



The absolute moron above you had just suggested Palestinians are digging up dead bodies to make Israel look bad ffs.

If you want to take about reactionary bullshit


That's not what I said but you're right. Hamas terrorists who rape, murder, torture, mutilate, and abduct of children would never lie to the media. That's a step too far!

She's a rather infamous lefty activist, tommy.

It seems the only qualification for being an activist is having a Twitter account and too much free time.

Now we wait for the moment of clarity when she realizes the actual root cause of the anger is having half your country taken from you, followed by 75 years of conflict, watching your territorial claims vanish. The “build a rich life…” part is spot on, but “Israel’s right to exist” is not the obstacle here. Every one who watches this today has the benefit of hindsight. The time for some kind of international community to go in and begin rescuing Gaza was like 20 years ago. It’s basically been a giant refugee camp for a long time. Things fester and decay. I don’t understand arguments that hinge on Palestinians in Gaza being anything other than angry and fragile right now. And they have no leadership at all. I don’t think Wu’s take captures any of that.

Did we? If hundreds of Black people take the to the streets in support of Donald Trump, I'll start worrying that he's got their best interests at heart.

Israel’s official defence over the mass graves is, “Sure, we killed them all, including the ones whose hands were zip-tied - but we didn’t bury them!”


Tell us again it isn’t a genocide ?

Just to be clear, protests against Israel are fine… even when they include language like “Israel must be abolished”. This is protected speech.

If a dual citizen Israeli-American gets referred to the Hague for alleged crimes carried out in Israel, do we still get to invade the Netherlands?

Really grim thread. It’s worse than first thought.

People are so set on each side, that nothing will change that. Even if all the claims from the other side were true, it still wouldn't change anything in the minds of the opposition.

Also on both sides there is an information war, so whatever propaganda or false information is out there, it quickly gets swallowed up as true.

I'm no lawyer, but I'd call that a delusional post.
