“Can someone start a GoFundMe for a pride parade in Gaza?”
Say what you will about Tim Pool, but this is a genius move. And the genius move is to show the cognitive dissonance caused by the “Queers for Palestine” movement. https://x.com/timcast/status/1717160252037046391?s=46
Don't take your cues from grifters like Tim Pool. Dude's classic shtick is that he is a disaffected liberal but somehow ends up siding with cons on every issue of the day. People are dying in this increasingly bloody conflict and this grifter is putting out gotcha statements catering to his base. Independent journalist my ass....All of em are grifters and people who parrot these idiots are so gullible that it's sad.
I think he’s pointing out the cognitive dissonance in the statement “queers for Palestine”
The only cognitive dissonance here is from Tim the grifter who can't grapple with the thought of a group supporting peace in Palestine, even if Palestinian people are against LGBTQ. Or...may be Tim can grapple this thought but is playing idiot to his crowd for engagement.
This is a dumb argument which fails to grasp basic logic. LGBT folks who support Palestine are not doing so because Palestinians also support them. Instead, they are supporting Palestine because they believe Palestinians are oppressed - even if Palestinians themselves hate the LGBT. Under conservative logic, the only reason to support someone is if you get some benefit in return 😂
And liberal "logic" is supporting people that wish to kill you. Quotes intentional.
Uh, yes. That's exactly unironically correct. They may wish to kill us, but they still deserve to live. They won't be able to kill us anyways. What's the exact issue here? You do know that half of the world wants to kill us, right? Do you think they should all be put to death? Conservative "logic" - quotes intentional 😂
Human rights are human rights. If you think people have to share your religious, social, political beliefs to be allowed freedoms of movement and freedom of independence then wow I feel bad for your lack of empathy. Gaza has been the worst humanitarian crisis for decades and half its population are children.
I don’t think they view i that way. Because if the queers for Palestine were in Palestine, they would be murdered in cold blood just like the babies Jewish babies in Israel.
So you only have empathy for people that share your beliefs? You contribute to why this country is so divided.
