This is exactly why it is so critical to change the politics around Palestinian’s right to self-defense. If this happened in Florida, the homeowner who stole the invader’s gun and shot him would be hailed as a hero. In the West Bank, he’s a terrorist.
@NathanJRobinson i bet a lot of this is in the tone the ppl are speaking to him in as well. they are not being condescending, they are calmly telling him the facts. when ppl feel they are being lectured to, they are less receptive. they are treating him as human and he is passing on the kindness
@barbarismcrit when i saw this tweet from him, my first thought was that it was written like some quote that would go hard in a high school classroom 60 years removed from the actual event. but he is here now in reality, not watching some runaway train in the past!!
Ossoff: Who won the 2020 election?

once casually dated a guy who very much portrayed himself as woke to women. in conversation, he reflexively related the letter h to hitler in a context that made zero sense, which i had never heard a person do, but immediately i was like ah ok i know what you do on the computer
They always think they’re subtle lol. If someone asks you your politics and you sound insincere and like you’re BSing it’s easy to assume you’re trying to hide something.
@DoritoBoland85 i think this comes from them growing up on an internet that was full of the “kids these days are doing x, y, and z wrong” media that has always existed and internalizing it as a value judgment against millennials rather than the normal backlash against who’s young in the moment
