unlike Americans they're not inoculated against these ideas
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha did you watch the election results in the US mate? The US has a system with a far right party and a slightly less far right party
Saying that Israel has a right to defend itself from Oct 7th is completely equivalent to saying that Nazi Germany had the right to defend itself from Polish resistance attacks under occupation. Please learn about the Naqba before spewing IDF propaganda about the right of Israel to defend itself.
the pflp caused Trump to win
ROFL
Israel has a right to defend itself. So does every country
Why would you even say those words when it's not the case? Israel isn't defending itself, it's committing genocide.
So: start organising to fight fascism immediately. We've been saying this for years: you don't fight fascism at the urns. Unionize, make collective grassroots power, read leftist theory (the only ones who managed to stop fascism in the last century).
The only one who openly supported their genocide was Trump
Funding Israel while talking of "the right of Israel to defend itself" seems pretty supportive of the genocide in my book.
Again, I'm sure you know better as a likely white American what to do about it than the literal PFLP.
If only we had any historical examples from, say, the past century, showing that the way to stop fascism is NOT by voting the socialdemocrats/liberals into power...
May do? More like continually does
Might do? MIGHT do? Have you never opened a book in your entire life?! Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Korea, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Cuba... The list of what the US CONTINUALLY does is endless. What the fuck do you mean "might do"?!
ROFL. George Floyd is one of the few good examples of popular mobilisation in the US and you're using it somehow as a point of how it's bad to protest????
America as we know it, may be over
Stop. I can only get so hard
The war in Ukraine is about to end
Damn, if only we had listened to the people calling for a negotiated peace since the first moment instead of calling them Putin bots...
NATO might disband
As a western European, I fucking wish, but you're too hopeful for that. NATO is exclusively a force for evil, and the only interventions that it's carried out are the bombing of Yugoslavia and the bombing of Libya, the latter resulting in a decade of civil wars that destroyed the formerly most prosperous country in Africa. Extraofficially (not technically NATO), also the invasion of Iraq. How is literally any of that good.
100 years of authoritarianism
The US has never been anything different from that. It's based on the genocide of natives, on slavery of imported Africans, and the decisions made at the government are consistently against the will and the interests of the majority.
Down with the US empire
Wait, you think the US has had independent media at any time?
Wake up. The elections happened. Now it's PROVEN that running a campaign on genocide, on shaking hands with Dick Cheney, and on shitting on progressives, gets you horrible results if you're a dem.
The popular front are fucking idiots
Please, white saviour, explain Palestinians how to liberate themselves while endorsing a candidate that openly supports their genocide.
Congrats, you now have much worse than a dem administration when it comes to that shithole israel
Nothing will fundamentally change in the Israel policy, it's just that now people will start caring because it's orange man doing it instead of genocide Joe
The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine explicitly called to boycott both candidates.
"Oh no, 18 million people stopped voting the Dems! Surely it's the voter's fault, not democrats being genocidal ghouls who can't offer a shred of progressiveness!"
French progressives
voting for Macron
Uh... LFI had wide popular support to the point of being the most voted, what on Earth are you talking about?
Martin Luther King was a well-known activist for Black peoples' and worker's rights. After many years of fighting racism and oppression from the establishment, he shared insights on some of his findings of the unjust opposition to rightful change, which may surprise a few of us who are still learning about his figure:
"I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection."
We've recently seen widespread liberal rejection of grassroots progressive movements such as Black Lives Matter, the protests against western collaborationism in the ongoing genocide in Palestine, and many so-called "progressives" dedicating more time to finding the mistakes committed by non-western regimes than those of their own nations, and calling "Tankies" to those who are a bit further to the left than us. Let us consider if we ourselves are the moderates that Dr. Luther King was talking about, and let's push for the change we actually want rather than bickering about who's "too far to the left"
