Before you get on your high horse that's not what I said.
I said that a lot of these people are protesting without having a common cause on what they are protesting for. And that it is creating deep fractures in our society.
But don't let a fact get in the way of your keyboard rage, grab your pitchfork, jump down the throat of anyone who you think is pro Israeli, and make sure to throw in a WW2 or Nazi reference.
Or perhaps consider that your response is exactly what I was talking about, and it's this kind of rant that is dividing us.
I encourage a good discussion, sharing of ideas/opinions, perhaps you'll change peoples minds but instead you resort to a "you're wrong and I'm gonna call you names"
And for the record, I still haven't said I'm pro war cos I'm not. What I've said is I am disappointed in the people in this country with how they have responded to it.
Wow, internet person... I never ever called you names or said you are pro-war.
I'd rather have a not-so-clear-about-the-issue protester than whatever excuse for doing nothing you are proposing.
Dont let perfect be the enemy of good.
