All the righties in any other situation would be screaming that protesters blocking a road should be run over.
I don't really agree but perhaps we should respect their wishes this one time. ๐ค
All the leftists in any other situation would be applauding protesters taking direct action.

It seems hypocrisy depends on context, doesn't it?
You think I care about some little masturbatory gotcha play, but no - innocent people are suffering and these fucks are trying to keep them from basic necessities like food, water, and medical supplies that have pointedly and explicitly destroyed by Israel - fuck em, take em out.
Apples =/= oranges, no matter how hard you try to run circles around it.
Like I say, hypocrisy depends on context.
You're using a tragic situation your own little masturbatory gotcha play on right wing on what right wing people say about your protests. Interesting how you thought that was ok, isn't it? ๐ค ๐ค ๐ค
