side-eyes Gaza

I think there are a few contenders...

At least Ukraine had been able to fight back. Russia's genocide of Ukraine is a mere glimmer in their eye, a vanishingly remote hope.

The Israelis, on the other hand, may succeed in finally clearing all that land for settlement.

The atrocities in Gaza have been ongoing for years, at a slower rate, and there wasn't much push-back.

Worst atrocity in history? Gaza? Don't know much history, eh? How about the Holodomor? Hell, Genghis Khan massacred more people than that.

Yeah obviously "worst in history" is ridiculous. But Gaza is certainly worse than Ukraine, saying otherwise is asinine

Not to mention the world events that brought the Israeli's to that region.

Americans are so easily led that they've completely stopped caring about Ukraine, cause CNN told them to look over here instead!

The Gaza situation has been going on for decades. Americans haven't given a single fuck about it until they were told to, with convenient timing.

Doesn't change the fact that the US has been supporting/funding Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and apartheid for decades since the 60's

Yeah and none of you gave a shit, actually I very much remember post 9/11 y'all wanted Palestine nuked. Hell, the entire Arab and Muslim world. Suddenly y'all love Arab warlords!

Reminds me of my country, you Americans glassed my country to keep Russia out of the Americas, and after you killed half my people, you guys started calling us wet backs, and suddenly your politicians and media are bending over for Russia and willingly spreading its bullshit at home.

You guys will go insane for whatever narrative you're being told to get outraged over

Your anger is definitely justified, American imperialism & Neocolonialism has and continues to devastate and exploit the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, and East Asia. I don't support any of that.

Many Americans are duped by Manufacturing Consent done at the behest of Corporations and the Military Industrial Complex. America does everything it can to exploit nearly everyone, including its own citizens. Shout-out to Knowing Better, Hasan Poker, Noah Samsen, and GDF for good info critical of US policy and history.

I'm an advocate for a One-State Solution in Palestine with Equal Rights for both Israelis and Palestinians.

TIL that the US nuked Mexico… or called Japanese people “wetbacks” or something, not sure.

Keep playing ignorant to the atrocities of your nation

In case you're not aware "glassed" means "nuked" and the only country that the US has nuked, not counting tests, is Japan.

Enlighten me. The US has done some fucked up shit but I’m pretty sure we never nuked Mexico.

Americans lost enthusiasm for Ukraine long before 10/7. Their was never a huge interest. Most Americans were nominally supportive of Ukraine, but it long ago stopped being top of mind.

Sorry Zionists, the days you could quietly cash our checks while you brutalize Palestinians without notice are over. But don't worry. Butcher Biden's got your back, and so does Trump. The American voter has never been particularly squeemish about crimes against humanity and war crimes.

I stop taking your view seriously when you call people Zionist. I know exactly what that dog whistle means.
