    if this is delusion then I don’t wanna be sane. if opposing genocide means I’m insane then I don’t wanna live in your reality.

    may your blood-soaked hands eternally haunt you as you wake up from your nightmares every day and you can’t tell the difference between dream and your “civilized” reality

      Opposing genocide you can rightly do, I share that sentiment.

      And never have I defended the genocide in Gaza.

      Christ.

      Is it really. REALLY that difficult to think: “Oh, genocide is bad. But we also shouldn’t use vandalism”

          Your voices? Your money? Your attention?

          Please consider those before you start going apeshit, thanks.

            My suggestion since early 2024 has been to birthstrike: no more births in the U.S. and other complicit western nations until the children of Gaza are safe and Israel has been held accountable for their heinous acts.

            This is especially relevant because younger people are the ones who are: most angry about this, the most politically disenfranchised, most applicable to a birthstrike due to biology.

            People shit on me and my 100% legal, non-violent / non-destructive recommendation. To the point where I’ve had posts and comments removed and even faced bans. So I’ve simply stopped recommending it.

            This isn’t apeshit… Apeshit is wanton destruction. This is a calculated protest using red paint and thought-out messaging.

            Also, why do we care about defacing a building when the same action has meaningfully called attention to complicit US media? NYC is cleanable; dead children in Gaza are non-recoverable.

              The pearl-clutching over some relatively minor vandalism in response to the mass murder of tens of thousands of civilians is really out of touch.

              Since people seem so fucking concerned about property damage, maybe we need to start discussing the “vandalism” of all the homes and other buildings in Gaza. Actually, I’m not even sure I would be comfortable doing that ironically as it would feel very disrespectful to the human victims.

            Lmay maybe we can sing them a song and send flowers /s

            BDS exists for a decade and they’re murdering people harder than ever. Honestly, recommending useless solution to a genocide is being complicit at this point
