Mmmkay. Prove it.

Can’t prove a negative. Prove it was a result of protests. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. Also… I asked first.

I’ll be waiting.

Can’t prove a negative.

Nobody asked you to.

I asked first

No, you didn’t.

You said “proof that protests work”

Where is the proof. Provide it.

you said:

This had nothing to do with the protests.

Where is the proof. Provide it.

I asked first...

Can’t prove a negative. You should prove that protests cause this. Provide it or walk away.

You should prove that This had nothing to do with the protests.. Provide it or walk away.

I can’t prove something didn’t happen kiddo. That’s not how this works. You claimed it did, the onus is on you. But- you clearly have nothing so…. Thanks for playing. We’re done here.

Deflect all you wish. This is pointless, and over. You can’t support your claim with any proof so it it’s dismissed.

Blocking you now. I’ve no need to discuss anything further with someone like you.

You can’t support your claim with any proof so it it’s dismissed.

God damn, you're so mad that Biden listened to the protesters you hate because they oppose genocide.

God damn, you’re so anti-Biden that you seek out anyone showing any understanding of nuance to troll them.

All I said was there is no proof. I never said I have hate anyone because they oppose anything.

You REALLY need to stop following me around and putting words in my mouth. Maybe get a life. Find something to do. Trolling isn’t your strongest skill here.

God damn, you’re so anti-Biden that you seek out anyone showing any understanding of nuance to troll them.

I just said Biden did a good thing: he listened to protesters.

All I said was there is no proof.

Uh huh. Can't have those protesters thinking that they're effective. Can't have them noticing that the needle fucking moved.

You're. Spreading. Propaganda.

You REALLY need to stop following me around

You're not in a position to talk about following people around. You kept spamming "I knew who posted this" every time you saw return2ozma post something that wasn't as pro-genocide as you would have preferred.

Biden's actions are pretty clearly NOT a reaction to the protests.

We know this because the protests have been going on for a while now and Biden took no action whatsoever.

It DOES immediately follow THIS news, and my suspicion is this is what caused the change in policy.

March 27th - Israel uses US supplied bombs to illegally attack Southern Lebanon, killing seven aid workers:

April 2nd, Biden reportedly "outraged" over the attack that killed seven members of World Central Kitchen.

Now he's saying no, we aren't giving you weapons for Rafa. The last thing he wants is more dead civilians with US supplied bombs.
