I never mentioned voting.

But do explain what a drop of water can do to stop a flood or how a spec of white paint can turn a can of black into the color you desire?

Would you like to try some new metaphors instead?

Yeah, I had a feeling I'd get this kind of response. It's the people's fault for not doing some undefined thing, liberals bad, just electoralism, etc.

Foreign policy is just so unimportant to the vast vast majority of people in the world, but I would guess this is especially the case in the modern west. It's hard enough to mobilize people against something that effects their daily lives.

This is why I specifically mentioned "those who claim to share our values". They constantly lie and obfuscate, bombarding the public through the media. Just listen to some episodes of Citations Needed to start to understand why I don't think blaming people barely scraping by is productive when they're under this propaganda firehose.

Is it the drop of rain responsible for overtopping a levee that causes a flood, or is it the fault of those we entrusted with the responsibility to maintain the infrastructure that prevents floods? Those that told us they shared our values. Those that claimed they cared about the lives of the people living in the valley that was flooded.

You're gonna compare chants at a festival to MLK? Come on.

Look, I agree with their sentiment and want to commend them for using their platform for advocating an end to this genocide. The US should absolutely not be considering it in granting visas.

But, yeah, maybe don't do a chant calling for death to another country's military. Don't make it so easy for them. Make them ban you for simply saying "free Palestine". Don't let them say it's because you made threats of violence. Bring the majority with you, don't push them away.

And the version of that meme is also censored of course.
