I don’t know what to answer to this half word salad, sorry.
No. The occupation will end when the apartheid regime is defeated.
When I say they’re dead weight, I mean at this point they are more useful to the apartheid regime as a stick with which to hit the Palestine liberation movement, than they are useful to the Palestine liberation movement.
The title doesn’t convey what the tweet is saying.
Also, Hamas is dead weight for the Palestinian cause.
And also no Hamas is not based.
The correct message is not “lol stupid libs”. It’s “Hey, you. You’re finally awake”, ideally followed by tips about how to organize resistance.

18·3 days agoCanadian here: it is important to us that you resist your fascist regime. We need you to do that just as much you need to do that for yourselves. It is also extremely important to deeply understand that resistance is NOT a binary switch that flips between “nothing” and “armed resistance”. At this stage in the game, in the US, you guys need to be doing a whole lot more of non-armed and institutional resistance. You need extreme pettiness. Make the trumpofascists pay a price in annoyance every step of the fucking way.
For example, call your senators and congresspeople, even the more radical left ones, and ask them why they are not calling for votes for every fucking little thing that depends on unanimity.. Then threaten to primary those that don’t. RESIST OR GET OUT OF THE WAY.
Then, the question goes to the mayors the ones that bluster with “gtfo ICE”. Why are they not doing road reconstruction in front and round ICE facilities? Why are there no incessant pipe maintenance requests at the sewers and cables and water mains that feed those compounds? RATFUCK THEM.
Then the question goes to the merchants. Why are there no “we don’t sell to ICE” signs on shops around their compounds? Why is it commercially viable to NOT have a policy like that? Why are they contracting work to them? Why is any private entity in the ICE supply chain not being constantly threatened with boycotts and divestment? MAKE IT TOXIC TO WORK WITH THEM.
Do I need to keep going, or do people get the idea?
Beyond that, realize that you have to start small, then build up: https://youtu.be/vvaquOcNEKI Armed resistance is the worst case scenario endgame. Not the start.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•[Video] Unmarked ICE Vehicle Burning.
2·3 days agoI meant he trumpofascists have already blown up marginal deterrence by calling anti-ICE protests terrorists. If you’re going to be persecuted as a terrorist anyway what’s there to lose for actually escalating violence?
Fucking dangerous idiots.



What a ridiculous thing to say. And what a stupid way of doing politics. This is exactly how the Zionists are losing the antisemitism narrative and you want to flip it over and push this to the Palestinians. Just like the Zionists fall on their faces by conflating Israel with Jews, you are trying to conflate the Palestinians with Hamas. What a profoundly misguided thing to do.
The millions of Palestinians who do not want Hamas to be the leader of anything do not owe your little fantasy narrative anything. And the millions upon millions of people who have been protesting the genocide do not owe an oath of fealty to some right wing Islamist faction anything.
It’s really telling that your last few posts have been about NY progressives not cowing to your campist fantasy. You’d rather attack the few holdouts of progressive politics in the US and see them become internally divided and fail. You’d rather align with the Right to harass Mamdani with cheap shots that make you look like the pure ideologue than to actually do the quiet institutional work that will actually position the anti-apartheid movement better.
Your moralistic pronouncements “if you do that you don’t do that” that make political positions sound like personality failures are silly and ridiculous. What a stupid thing to say that if someone doesn’t support your favourite Palestinian faction they are pro genocide. What arrogance. You personalize and normalize vitriol in politics, you make it toxic and discouraging to anyone disagreeing with you. Go cosplay 19th century German academic invective style all you like but this isn’t how any of this works.
The genocide will not end because of whatever Hamas does. The genocide will end when the anti-apartheid movement in Zionist bases of support succeeds in cutting off that support. And if you think support for Hamas is how you do that, well boy oh boy.
