We must point at the blood on the hands of every person who didn't vote for Kamala Harris for the rest of their worthless lives. It doesn't matter how many vulnerable people suffer; obnoxious edgelords posting from their comfy bedrooms in the West don't care
(Link to thread)
Remember: the ends of the horseshoe meet with MAGA and tankies thinking "it's fine for countless people to die for the sake of my ideology."

what gives the lie to “silence is complicity” or its cousin “silence is violence” is that people are silent about tens, hundreds, thousands of atrocities happening right at this moment because they do not know they are happening/there is simply not enough time in the day to condemn all the evil in the world.
do you think the people saying “silence is complicity” really believe what they are saying, which implicates them too, or do they feel entitled to a stranger’s take? is it a way to build coalition or bully people? is it, at best, a poorly thought out phrase (and there are many such cases!) or is it lying through teeth?
does anyone really believe that saying the right words absolves you? that that’s all there is to it and nothing more?

Huh, it’s almost like the president of the United States can’t unilaterally force two autonomous, independent parties to agree to a ceasefire. But I was assured otherwise for a solid year and a half by everyone online who screamed "ceasefire now!" and ignored when a certain group repeatedly rejected those ceasefire offers. Hm! It's almost like I made a post way back in November 2023 saying that the people acting like the president could just end a war in the Middle East with a phone call were no different from MAGA believing Trump could waltz into a room and get world leaders to listen to him by acting like a big, tough guy. Hm, hm, hm,

Why is there a post with 31k notes talking about the US indiscriminately bombing Iranian civilians. You do know the US only bombed nuclear sites right, specifically a nuclear site hidden under a mountain. Like this is completely separate from whether you think the US should have gotten involved or not it’s just a really ignorant stance to take.

@AshagerAraro: It's bewildering to see a privileged woman from the West, protesting in support of the tyrannical #IRGC regime that brutalizes its own people and strips them of their right to protest. She enjoys the freedom to protest here, yet supports a regime that takes that right away from its citizens. The hypocrisy is staggering.
@blackjewishmagic: And can we talk about the racism of low expectations and the white savior syndrome!?!
This is classic white savior syndrome - believing she knows better, feeling entitled to intervene, while ignoring the complex realities faced by those suffering under such regimes. It's a form of racism of low expectations - the unwarranted assumption that oppressed people in the Middle East must accept these conditions as normal, or even that they deserve them. She would never be willing to live under the IRGC's brutal rule, but from her perspective, it's somehow acceptable for others to do so. She doesn't see them as her equals: she sees their suffering as just the way things are meant to be.
