If you can’t muster a single word in support of justice for Palestine, maybe you don’t have a moral leg to stand on when it comes to Greenland. Ever thought about that?

@aral I'm thinking about it, thanks.
Although I have had words of support for Palestine and against the genocide perpetrated by the Israeli powers.
At the same time, I don't understand your moral leg. After you have helped elect Trump, what is your moral leg?

I do remember you recomending not voting for Kamala, and recommending to not vote. Explicitly.

But not easy to go check your timeline. You have 57,431 posts in 3,207 days, about 18 posts per day. I'd have to go search your posts around 500 days ago, or about 9000 posts of scrolling.

To confirm the tone on this subject you can consult this thread of yours where I commented:

@aral We have politicians in the "United" Kingdom who will say in a single breath that the people of #Greenland should have self determination but that the people of #Scotland should not.

@aral yeah I am still waiting for all the fediverse posts about poor Venuleula and their sovereignty.

It's different when they are brown, just sayin'.

@CartyBoston @aral

sadly true.

Palestine Action
Venezuala Action
Ukraine Action
Greenland Action

common denominator, all the aggressors have active or tacit US support. (and others) Europes hands are not clean either.

@Thebratdragon @aral I'm just typing, like everyone else, this place is so valuable to me.

I think Gaza and Venezuela are different and Gaza a *much* worse reflection on America because it enjoyed wide support.

Who, specifically, are you referring to? Which prominent European has refused to say anything at all in support of justice for Palestinians? I suggest that you have to go pretty far to the right to find any.

@duncan_lithgow Ah, you’re likely right: I should have said actions, not words.

Fair call, that broadens the pool considerably.
