Obviously. It wouldn't be a very good ultimate answer to life, the universe, and everything if it wasn't.

Anyone can pretend to be anything on the internet. It's very foolish to just believe everyone is what they say they are.
Being hard-eyed and critical about things we support is important for learning from any mistakes we make, since we are only humans doing our best. By improving our methods though, we can become even more effective for the future. This is just as important as cheerleading for our cause.
I do not support a total arms embargo right now, I do support conditions on our aid and a permanent cease fire, along with Netanyahu being thrown out and movement towards a two state solution, pushed by an ultimatum threatening divestment.
I do not see evidence that a large amount of leg work is being done. The strategy seems to be to go straight for leadership, trying to pressure them with high visibility action, and less on outreach to suburban American citizens, where the real power actually is. You are correct I am critical, but being critical of the methods and supportive of the cause are not exclusive to each other. I can support innocent Palestinian people while thinking you guys are doing a terrible job of actually helping them.
The recent boat run towards the Israeli blockade was one of the first good ideas I've seen out of the movement in a long time. Half your ideas are counterproductive, which I think we can see in the recent uptick in support for Israeli military action.
Not really, if the value is a large number then the value is a large number.
A lot. The strip isn't saying there aren't many homeless men though, it's saying there aren't many homeless women.
I don't support it, I've said several times now I support divesting from Israel. I'm just realistic enough to acknowledge that you need the support of the masses before you can convince leadership. Expecting a high degree of prominence without doing your legwork first is a recipe for failure, and more Palestinian deaths.
ngl, this doesn't sound like us. Mass reporting and swatting is very much their thing, and we usually recognize the importance of peaceful protest. There was no indication of any threat in the actual tweet that I could see.
The DNC protests were largely above-board, they did their paperwork and were pretty peaceful and honorable. We all knew they were happening.
We would have called it a fling. It's less stable than a FWB thing, but more stable than a one night stand.
I agree that tightened security across the board is smart. But I'm a little skeptical that the set of a tv show was actually all that dangerous and that he was actually told what he claims.
Yeeaaa...there's a lot of homeless women.
I'm reluctant to believe anything on that platform, knowing how dedicated the trolls can be. But I suppose I'll take your word.
