The fluid movement between leftist issues is certainly weird (BLM > Trans > Palestine), but there also seems to be another strange component, specifically about how dark someone's skin is. To many these days, dark skin automatically equates to oppressed, while light skin means oppressor. Never mind that 160K Israelis are from Ethiopia, I(insert useful idiot) know that Israelis are white oppressors.

The charge of genocide always makes me chuckle. Previously I thought, of all people, writers would know what it means. But most blindly go along with the prevailing narrative. Hamas's stated intention is to kill all Jewish people(would be genocide). Israel, on the other hand, could wipe Gaza off the map tomorrow, yet sends their citizens(who all serve in the military) into harms way specifically to minimize civilian death. Useful idiots advocate for Hamas and the Palestinians who repress women, kill or jail LGBTQ members, were video'd celebrating 9/11, are allied with Iran and other dictatorships and all wish death upon America. It's like I have a front row seat watching Rome crumble.
