They're not allowing aid in, hence the famine in Northern Gaza.

It's a genocide.

No one is saying it will. Lots of folks in leftist spaces advocate for getting in the streets, unionizing your workplace, and organizing in socialist organizations. If you're a socialist, it's time to find a socialist organization to join. Can't find any local chapters? Start your own. Don't like any local organizations? Join one and work to improve it.

Fucking hell, didn't know about that. Someone should drag that fucking piece of shit into Lake Michigan.

At least there's the Haymarket Memorial out in Forest Park.

Being Nazis wasn't a deal breaker for America. Nazis were filling out the Madison square garden at the time.

I mean, I sort of did, but only because OP mentioned the series by name giving me something to google. Before seeing the comment I had no clue this was referencing an anime.

Do I have to start watching anime so that I don't become a cultural hermit?

Ehh, I disagree. A counter example; I'd bet money that folks in England know more about our country than we do theirs, especially when it comes to politics and current issues. I'm pretty sure most Americans wouldn't be able to name the British PM or even what party is in power there. Everyone there probably knows Biden is the president and that he is a Democrat.

Also, Al Jazeera publishes in English, I don't think language is the primary barrier. American media just generally doesn't cover foreign affairs all that much (and when they do, they generally do a shit job).

Send this shit tier meme back to 2016.

From the ANSWER coalition? Yeah I doubt it. ANSWER has close ties to the PSL. The folks who were demonstrating with ANSWER against the Iraq War are now demonstrating with ANSWER against the genocide of the Palestinians. They're not Democrat loyalists.

Are you using a vibes-based threat model?

Probably something about not having all your eggs in one basket.
