      That’s because, just like the day before 10/7, no one outside of FA circles was talking about Palestine.

        Why was the Football Association talking about Palestine? Weren’t they too busy defending obviously wrong refereeing decisions? 😛

      The entire Arab/Muslim world was being constantly targeted by Americans who wanted them all dead after 9/11. I remember lots of pro Israel “wipe out those ones too” talk about Palestine around then. Heck, you guys were even going after sihks just cause of their head covering. I was an adult then and remember those first few months, Americans wanted brown blood

        Americans are not a monolith, dude. A lot of us have grown up well-aware of the Israel-Palestine conflict, among other nuanced conflicts in the Middle East. Plenty of Americans have not forgotten about Ukraine, either. Quit scolding people on a website likely populated with much more liberal users. Jesus Christ.

          You are a monolith to us, the people you colonized, fucked, killed and used as pawns. I don’t give a fuck about your minority of good people, when your entire government ran around the globe fucking everyone, now suddenly I’m supposed to get behind you guys cause you act like you’ve changed

            First of all, I’m being pedantic here, but America never colonized a middle eastern or Arab country. I get your point, but calling America colonizers is just putting a hat on a hat.

            Second, you sound just like the ignorant assholes in America who were harassing Sihks after 9/11. Stupid and full of hate.

            We’re a monolith to you because you do not have any interest in reading anything about our deadlock legislative body over literally the shit you began this argument with. Grow up.
