A lifetime of western propaganda is hard to break. It’s been hard and confusing but finally, the utter hypocrisy on what is really going on in Palestine has really opened my eyes. It really is a hard pill to swallow. The west have just lost the plot completely. I hope more people, will realise the truth before its too late for humanity.

    I try to ask people how israel is different from Russia, taking lands from another country because they believe it belongs to them. I get told that it’s completely different

      It’s not. A lot of people here seem to confuse anti-western and anti-captialism with pro-russia and pro-china and will on one hand decry the evils of western hegemony and imperialism, while simultaneously using the other to jerk off autocratic, authoritarian, capitalistic regimes elsewhere. The idea that one can be anti USA imperialism and anti Russian/Chinese imperialism simultaneously is completely unfathomable to some.

        Well, I can’t convince you for all I know, in regards to at least China (its fine if you support Vietnam, Cuba, Bolivia, you must at least have some sort of critical support for some socialist and anti-imperialist countries)… honestly, just go ask Dessalines for his views…

        If he wouldn’t want us here, we wouldn’t be what we are today
