It really bothers me thay they use pro-palestine language, when what this is about is being against genocide.
What?
Being pro-palestine is not at the cost of anyone or anything else. There is no meaningful difference.
Are you drawing the line of what is acceptable to protest between protesting for an end to genocide and protesting for the rights of Palestinians to govern themselves, rather than be at the bottom of the hierarchy in an apartheid government?
No, I'm criticizing the reporting language.
Anti-genocide and pro-Palestine are the same thing in this case.
I think you meant they are labelling the protest as pro - Palestine, rather than anti - genocide. But it looks like you are annoyed that anyone would say things that are pro - Palestine.
