I know it’s not news to any of us but the white progressives thinking they have a say in every issue is a huge part of what’s wrong with politics.

This applies to a LOT of shit that is not related to Judaism or Israel at all. In fact I’d argue Israel might be the worst pick as an example 💀

Notice how literally ANYTHING can happen (especially in the case of Israel) and white progressives are the first ones to demonize or start talking over the voices(of those it’s actually about). Progressives reposting from TikTok accounts that are anti Israel. It’s collective mania. They speak “for” marginalized communities but actively cause more harm in the name of “political correctness and activism and wokeness”

I never said we’re not it’s just weird to me that white progressives thinking they need to have a say first for marginalized groups and then repost things that are divisive and not anywhere near progressive all in the name of being correct politically.

Reposting is like the opposite of what you’re talking about though, it’s elevating the voices of others instead of your own

Thats one thing but they never mention shit about bombs in other countries. Also they’re the first people to say that anyone who doesn’t align with their views are Nazis but proceed to call Jews and Israelis who don’t support the government there just the people Nazis.

I have noticed tho that they repost videos from accounts that are run by other white people who don’t get their information correct and don’t provide sources. It’s “he said she said”

But you said them having a say is what’s wrong with politics so aren’t you saying they’re not entitled to their say and opinion Having a say first, like before anyone else law, is different than having a say…. We should encourage white ppl, everyone, to have progressive beliefs and to critically think. And to advocate for marginalized groups as long as they’re educated. That’s a good thing

But they’re not educated takes it’s always basically a “if you don’t advocate for this group of people you’re a horrible human being also it’s our job to uplift the voices of the minorities but secretly it’s gonna be in the most offensive way”

I mean some white progressives I know do talk about other countries, others don’t, but when talking about social media like they’re reposting stuff they see on their timeline most people aren’t like actively going out searching for stuff to repost I feel like your criticism of people reposting stuff without sources doesn’t just apply to white progressives but most people on social media in general, and the bias for accounts run by white people is common across the board politically too

Educated about Palestine in the most anti human way by calling violence on a group of people who also want the people there to be safe (most Israelis and Zionists like myself actually do want Palestinians to be safe) and have spent the last two and half years on a demonization campaign in the name of “political correctness”

Do you have any actual evidence that most Israelis want Palestinians to be safe? Because the polling I’ve seen hasn’t suggested such
