@RashmanTheHorse@workertenant Multiple actors pronounce Free Palestine at award shows. There is a clear analogy to the recent Superman film. Several presidential 2028 contenders are clearly tailoring messaging to contend with anti-Israel sentiment. Im not seeing how movement cannot be co-opted so far.
@RashmanTheHorse@workertenant Genuine question: and what way did you determine that anti-Zionist politics could not be co-opted in the same manner that you describe BLM as have been?
@Lou_E_Blank@mathyu_junior@SassyE I know you are really hoping that someone argues back-and-forth with you. And I hope you get that. I’ll just let you know. It’s really easy for someone to live on one side of Southern Ave, and then move to another and move back. Have fun.
@Lou_E_Blank@mathyu_junior@SassyE I’m black, so the line between living in DC and Prince George it’s very porous. I hope you find someone to argue more about this. Have a good day.
@mathyu_junior@Lou_E_Blank@SassyE Also no one from DC or PG has ever been impressed by NYC comparisons. Folks been doing it since the 70s, and it’s always a big who care.
@mathyu_junior@Lou_E_Blank@SassyE You’re arguing with someone who doesn’t leave their home regardless of city or suburban living. No need to waste headspace.
People who are ultra keyed on elections need to keep in mind life is happening elsewhere for the vast majority of people around them. I know it is helpful to them to have this perspective. The urgency you feel can easily come off as annoyance, if you don’t learn to dial it back
@TheChiButterfly@JDWenzel The owners of stores that kill their black customers are not monolithic or consistent with fascistic behavior.
But the other black people I may argue with on twitter? Basically Hitler.
@BeltwayGreg@WMATASoldier@cuneytdil@SBunnWard8 But you mentioned the fountains running as an effect of the Hawthorne Effect, itself a dubious claim of behavioral modification, so what aspect of NPS being watched was the catalyst?
@idshsnsnsn Why would a communist use “Woke 1” as a framing when we already have terms for the very phenomenon they would want to critique? There is probably all these converging convos because it’s revolving around a phrasing that is imprecise and insincere in nature.
