If you’re disabled like OP calling the police is dangerous. They will not understand OP’s disability and will make them do stuff that will harm them. It’s better to look for local mutual aid organisations specialised in people with disabilities.

God you people are disgusting. If there was one woman here she would’ve left after seeing your comment.

Nothing, just don’t assume that everyone refusing to vote for a genocide supporter is privileged and don’t speak for me.

I’m trans and so fucking sick of people here using my existence as an excuse to support/ignore genocide. My rights are not more important than those of Palestinians and anyone saying that they support me while killing brown muslim people abroad will not get my support. The interesting part is that Harris won’t even plainly say she supports trans peoples rights, she has to dance around it and say it in the most vague meaningless terms. You know that trans people are the next in line to be thrown in front of the bus by the dems.

It’s not just an embargo, it’s a criminal blockade that every UN country except the US, Israel and Ukraine has agreed should end.

We do! I remember your username because I’ve seen you post good takes in a sea of genocide defenders attacking you.

Whataboutism is not a serious argument.

Russia is helping with an effort to create pressure to stop a genocide and the US is helping commit the genocide.

Morality did not suddenly appear with international law and international law does not define morality now. What an ignorant take. ‘Property rights’ are made up by western colonialists to oppress indigenous peoples.

Native Americans should be given back their land just like Palestinians.

This is a weird comparison. Native Americans were the victims a of horrific genocide similar to Palestinians now.

The critique I have on people who say that is that most people don’t organise because they feel like they already did their job by voting. I don’t care if and how you vote. I do care if you don’t do anything about the fucking genocide.

You wash because of the pesticides.

Rich people know that they are exempt to most rules and sometimes they just want to impose them on others.

The Palestinian genocide has been going on for decades.

If the European council has enough evidence to call what’s happening in Ukraine a genocide, then they should have more than enough information to call what’s been happening in Palestine a genocide even before Oktober 7th of last year. They didn’t need a ICJ ruling for Ukraine, and they don’t need one for Palestine.

I’m commenting under an article about the European council why would you assume I’m in the US?

We don’t all have friends in Gaza, most people don’t which is why they are so good at ignoring what’s going on there.

Comparing the Palestinian genocide to China’s repression of Uyghurs is minimising the absolute horrors that are taking place in Palestine. Uyghurs are being repressed and China is violating their human rights, they are not being slaughtered.

The Palestinian genocide is funded by the West. Mostly by the US but the EU and my government is also complicit. I, as a EU citizen will always press harder on crimes that are committed in my name.

What a nonsensical comparison to make. There’s no denying the incomprehensible horrors Palestinians are put through by Israel. From carpet bombings, to denial of humanitarian aid to the killings of humanitarian workers and journalists. The Palestinian genocide is one of the most well documented genocides we’ve seen with literal confessions of Israeli politicians and lawmakers. There is no excuse for the support from European governmental bodies to Israel.

I’m not advocating for ignoring anything. I’m stating some obvious hypocrisy which worries me because I have friends in Gaza who are being systematically murdered and denied access to food and hygiene. I want the governmental bodies that represent me to recognise those horrors and to stop funding and legitimising the perpetrators and I will never stop talking about it.

No idea what you’re on about. The destruction of Palestinian cultural heritage is 100 times worse than that of Ukraine so the council of Europe recognising only the latter as genocide shows how little their declarations mean.
