So people are exercising the 1st Amendment right in a way that she doesn’t like and now she wants the FBI to investigate them. All these politicians are the same. Democrats and Republicans.

    You can easily see the trolls working hard on fx Lemmy. All those users that are talking about how Israel is breaking the Laws of War while not having any comment history regarding Ukraine.

    Because the conflicts are nothing alike, and in the case of Ukraine the US is helping the victim but in the case of Palestine the US is helping the aggressor

    So yes, the Russians are working social media hard. It doesn’t matter if you’re pro Israel or pro Hamas to them, as long as you don’t talk about Ukraine.

    To over 300 millions Arabs and over 1 billion Muslims, Palestine is very personal in a way the Ukraine isn’t. Similarly for hundreds of millions in the Global South who identify with the struggle of Palestinians against colonialism. But more importantly, what’s going on in Palestine is many times worse than anything that happened in Ukraine.

    * The graphics are a couple of months old, things have gotten much worse since then.

      You just argued that the Palestinians had a higher level of suffering than the Ukrainians and therefore are more entitled?

      Holy crap…

        Accusation in mirror. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accusation_in_a_mirror

        I never claimed that Palestinians are more entitled to anything, not sure how you inferred that. You are accusing me of something western media is guilty of. I do remember when western media claimed Ukrainians were more important than other people.

          Yes you did:

          But more importantly, what’s going on in Palestine is many times worse than anything that happened in Ukraine.

          You compared the level of suffering (“many times worse”) and claimed Palestinians being entitled (“But more importantly”).

          Can you confirm that you agree that Russia attacked Ukraine on the 14th of February and that Russia purposely tortured and executed civilians and on top of that has kidnapped Ukrainian children. Furthermore, do you agree that Hamas, on the 7th of October, targeted and killed civilians in Israel?
