Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
I told myself I wasn't going to get wrapped up in any fights over this conflict when it started because no one will ever back down, and I've already gone too far. See it as a cop-out if you like, that's fine, but I cannot continue one way or the other.
My stance on this conflict is:
"I'm German. I'm gonna sit my ass down and shut the fuck up before I accuse Jews of genocide."
The Israel government isn't "Jews" and to equivocate them is unironically racist. Right now the Israel government is committing a mass genocide against Palestinians. There are many many Jewish people that don't support this. They are literally attempting to make Israel an ethnostate by eradicating the other people that live there.
If you have any ethical thought processes within you, take them and follow to the logical path that the genocide of the Palestinian people is wrong.
This is not a “fights over this conflict”, Palestinians are being murdered in the thousands. Genocide must be prevented, especially when the US is directly funding it in a very significant way and has the influence to end it. Hence this protest vote in a completely safe 2nd term incumbent Democrat-only primary, which is another attempt to try to get those in control of the US government to heed the will of the people.
Is this a grandparent forward?
Maybe you should change the US policy on Israel. Your election and millions of voters who will sit at home depend on it.
