What the fuck is wrong with your brain that you think people being sympathetic for human beings who are being mercilessly murdered by an oppressive regime is suspicious? Suspicion of what, Matt? What the fuck is wrong with you, Matt?
Quite a lot of American conservatives (and libs, but MANY conservatives) cannot comprehend having sympathy for someone not part of their 'in group'.
Showing compassion is weak since people are supposed to pull themselves up, and helping them is either detrimental towards them 'developing those skills', or condescendingly insulting, or both (we won't talk about the 'if they're too weak they deserve it' freakshows). Never mind how they got there in the first place, or how deeply screwed they may be. Or maybe just showing compassion regardless.
People are "obsessed" with Palestine because it's been blatantly obvious that this very thing, this genocide, has been (at least for a lifetime) just around the corner the whole fucking time! Wholly funded and supported by the very states that it's "strange" people are obsessed about it in (just say white peole you fucking racist)! The most recent phase of which alone has been ramping up for longer than the entire Nazi rise to power, WW2, Holcaust, and fall of the Nazi regime! This has been the plan, the agenda, backed by our states for longer than I've been alive! And it's often seemed like the only things holding it back have been opposition in backer countries and the potential geopolitical fallout! People are obsessed because it's the most brazen, openly planned crime against humanity in a century and the absolute bottom of the barrel, lowest bar, simplest moral test imaginable! If you can't meet that standard you have no moral compass and your values are genocidal white supremacy, that's it!
By the way, noticing with Tlaib that White America is doing that thing again where any POC person who is expressing righteous anger over an injustice gets painted with the “irrational anger / hysterical / unhinged / crazed / hate-filled / etc” brush. Only white people are allowed to get mad, usually at grave injustices like “being told a wear a mask in a shop” and things like that. Death to America.
Used to be that wight men had passion and righeous fury, women were hysterical and POC were plain mad. Now that wight women have been well co-opted to the mainstream, it's gauche to call them hysterical.
I was taken to the holocaust museum three times as a kid and got a very clear message: Never Again. The fact that the victims aren't Jewish this time is irrelevant.
What a piece of shit, also love how he starts to explains the plight of the Iraqi christian community which, in his words, was pushed to the brink of extinction by the american invasion.
Didn't you support that invasion from the beginning Matt, you grovelling motherfucker? Didn't you write articles supporting it? Didn't you scold anti war protestors then?
How do you know they don't care about other things, Matt? Maybe they are responding so passionately because it's happening right fucking now and they just saw a pile of dead children in a video? Maybe that has some kind of radicalizing effect? If you're so concerned about other plights unplug your router and rattle some off for me. No cheating with Google. How about your ass tells me what the kids should be caring about. Terminally lib brained fuck.
So what is it that makes it sus? You gonna start peddling the digital fentanyl are turning the kids pro-palestine Matty? Or are you going with the old reliable "the left is antisemitic"? Because you're not adding any conclusion here.
He isn't just implying that caring about causes is suspicious (well, not entirely), he is saying that caring about this specific cause this much is suspicious.
What is he suspecting lies behind it though? China, Russia or Antisemitism seem to be the most likely answers as he is a turbolib who doesn't understand why having your countrys leadership full throatedly endorsing an ongoing genocide that they're instrumental in perpetuating is a cause of outrage.
This made me go look up the Kohlberg stages and made me think that yes Heinz was correct to steal the drug from that price-gouging chemist and I hope he really fucked up his chemist's shop ransacking the place to find it and the chemist has a fucking heart attack right after writing down the formula
How the fuck are people like this able to function in everyday life? Does he have any friends? Family? Who would willingly be around someone who is so emotionally undeveloped he can't understand the concept of empathy?
he literally has no concept of how to actually feel emotions. if you told this dude your dad died rather than showing any empathy i garuantee the most he could muster up is "it makes sense you'd be sad your dad died"
If Matty knows one thing really well - it's how to not get ratioed. I bet he rewrote tweets in that thread over and over and over again to get just the right "I'm just spitballin' here..." tone. Phrasing is key. It trumps content by a mile. People don't use their critical thinking skills enough to see and understand how vile he is.
What he's saying is right there but people still manage to miss it. All they need to do to understand is change the phrasing. He's saying "Why do any non-Palestinians care about Palestinians in particular?" If Trump fascism begins - Matty is ready. All he needs to do is go mask off and he's good to go.
