Don't you feel it's a bit counterintuitive to call someone tonedeaf for being unaware of "International Day of Solidarity with Long Term Anarchist Prisoners", something that more than 99.9999% of people are likely unaware of?

Wouldn't you be better off, say, helping build awareness of such a day instead of simply berating someone for not knowing about it? At the moment, you're teaching people to treat it like a joke.

Western liberals aren't aware of it because they've segregated themselves off from the folks in their community most subject to political prisoners.

But then lots of Western Liberals clap and cheer when an anarchist group gets raided by the police and dragged off to prison.
