I find polemics against the "western left" less and less convincing as time continues to prove the western left is far more willing to stand up for Palestine than most of the "global south".

    Western left has so much free time to talk about how important it is to do something, but they won’t do anything themselves.

        Are you trying to do deflect? Like yeah obviously the same critique I said about the “Western Left” also applies to myself and I have no issue trying to contribute to help Palestinians. If you have suggestions on how to help better that is very good and everyone is eager to hear you out.

        You could for example join an organization, avaiable to you, that helps combat the established order, which is the root cause of the suffering. Do you think we live in a comic book universe or something and can get a revolution overnight? It’s gonna be boring stuff like helping your neighborhood clean up, teaching them how to prepare food etc. lol

        Anyways my food is done cooking and I can go eat now. Let’s work on a world where everyone can have something to eat one day. inshallah

          No they were saying that there is no functional difference between the western left not doing anything and AES states not doing anything.

            the difference is that the western left exist in the states committing genocide, the AES live in the states the west genocided before.

                I think it does. Trickle down is real to a small extend, but still westerners are the one who will get the fruits of this butchery. We bare most of the responsibility to do something, i cant blame a guy in egypt.

    i feel like there’s a few more libs ruckin’ around the 'bear lately (past 2-3 weeks), just a vibe but can’t shake the sense that there’s a steady uptick in subtle engagement bait in this effort. rather than generating 200 comment roast sessions they’re tryin their darndest to stir up infighting.

    just a feeling

      Yeah it’s pretty obvious, just don’t take the bait and treat each other with some basic respect and they’ll keep failing

    The Western left only stand the more disaffected they are by the situation. ICE? Romani oppression? Proletarian genocide within their own countries?

    No, I will only pop up if the topic is about Uyghurs

    Stand up for what? The few brave enough to do something about it in the west did it because the factories and responsible people are in the west. What the hell do you want a brazilian to do?

    Stand up where you are
