Suppressing Pro-Palestinian Speech is the New McCarthyism
Suppressing Pro-Palestinian Speech is the New McCarthyism
The crackdowns on pro-Palestine protesters recast protected speech as harassment, and have little to do with protecting Jewish students from antisemitic threats.
You're free to say what you like here, until they start to lose control of public discourse.
Supporting Palestinian citizens is fine.
Opposing Israel’s aggression is fine.
Supporting literal terrorists (Hamas) is not fine.
Promoting antisemitism is not fine.
Promoting Islamophobia is not fine.
Supporting innocent Israelis is fine.
Supporting Israel is not fine.
Amnesty International does not call Hamas a terrorist group. Reactive violence is an expected outcome towards an apartheid state. Who are you and I to decide if supporting Hamas is good or bad, when their people have lived in the dark for seventy years, and counting? When basic healthcare, education and right to self determination was snatched from them?
And if you weren't aware of this before, Indian communists have kidnapped and slaughtered high-ranking officers from the colonizing states. We are proud of their actions, in fact we brag about it, and make movies too. Should have thought twice before colonizing and treating people like trash.
Fuck that, I stand with Hamas, I stand with Hezbollah, I stand with Ansar Allah, the only people in the world fighting to defend the Palestinians from their own destruction. Fuck this fence sitting. When a genocide is being perpetrated, I will not condemn the people fighting to make it stop.
