That is because you are too cowardly to understand a necessary solidarity between US citizens and Palestinians being slaughtered by primarily US weapons. There is no future for anyone if we cannot drive the wedge of empathy into the machinery of mass death, the Palestinian Genocide is simply a preview of our fates (how many US police departments have trained with the IDF? The answer is a lot) if we do not demand it stop with everything we have.
Shame on you for taking the easy road out and reacting impulsively when the truth is too uncomfortable for you to think about critically.
People will treat you the way you treat others, so let me ask you how do you think people will treat you for being toxic towards people speaking out against a genocide we are complicit in and could stop?
Cool, you win the moral victory while this country is literally torn to pieces.
Congrats on winning!
Great thanks, what do you win for condescending the humanity of Palestinians at a level that bankrupts your intellectual capacity to empathize with people being slaughtered at a mass indiscriminate scale by your countries weapons, money and diplomatic cover?
What you win is the same future for all of us, fool.
