    I feel like Cassandra 'cuz I keep getting downvotes whenever I speak true prophecy or ask people to use hindsight to reckon with why their judgements were incorrect.

      There is a blue flavor of the MAGA mindset. Just say don’t want your tax dollars supporting an active genocide and watch those downvotes pile up

        Ignorant take.

        Huge post yesterday about Israel blowing up a water facility.

        All the comments “durrrr, another one? See it’s genocide!”

        No. It’s the same one fifteen other people have posted about it’s still based on an unverified second-hand “report.” Still doesn’t give enough details to verify underlying story is even based on real places or events.

        It’s Iranian- and Qatari- sponsored lawfare, seeping into the media discourse through repetition. And it really drowns out the handful of legit war crimes and murders that have occured.

          It’s okay to be wrong. You can still change. Extremism in Israel is off the rails. The Israelis themselves are showing you the crimes they commit.
