Yeah, i dont give a shit if you've conjured up some justification for it.
"I'm yelling at the nazis there"
"I'm expanding the reach of my good ideas"
You're dancing for 'em and they're getting paid for it.

To paraphrase Tettucine: if you seriously feel someone is about to deprive you of your life, shoot them.

Diversity of tactics means just that. Diversity of tactics. If there is no room for dancing frogs in your revolution, it leads nowhere worth being. If there are no armed people willing to protect those dancing frogs with violence, they will be crushed by the violent.

AND, one person can do both.

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔
One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

This is established world history. Your personal "reality" only extends to the tip of your nose.
Try to gain some perspective before flailing around like this.

You are blind to the fact that everything they have is a direct result of US dollars flooding them since the Nakba,
Funding is control.
Without this control their genocidal settler project would have died in the 1940s, and the world would be all the better for it.

You are missing the forest for the trees. The US pumps billions of dollars every year into their regime, and has for decades. This allowed the regime to create the military force needed for this genocide. Yes, they would have reacted, but without US dollars they would have had machetes, as you said.

So you admit that withholding the means for this genocide would have controlled the manner in which they were able to go about it.
Control comes in many forms, and leads to different outcomes.

What would have happened if biden didn't provide endless bombs and money to the genocide? Do you feel that withholding the means would not have controlled the outcome?

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

Passing through for work, might have to check that out on the return!

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

What radicalized me? Cops murdering a friend of mine with tasers. They took turns on him, went through every battery they had. First time I ever saw a person killed.
"Excited Delirium, his heart just did that. No fault."

Whilst we're on the subject of shocking living things, did you know police departments routinely shock human beings with tasers until they die and chalk up their deaths to a fake medical condition they call "excited delirium" that was invented by taser companies to absolve themselves of liability?

Her Clockwork Orange score was one of the first albums I ever had. Soooo good.
