This is backwards. The vast majority of people, certainly here on the internet, support the Palestinians. Especially young people, even when you are looking outside of the internet.
Meanwhile, almost everybody seems to have forgotten about the plight of the Ukrainians.
Ukraine is getting way too little support though from everyone, that’s true. I think what they need is weapons and additional financial pressure against Russia, not like angry retweets and memes. Those are pretty much the modern equivalent of thoughts and prayers.
True. I think that sending your representative(s) a letter/email about an issue can increase pressure or at leat awareness of it. Much more than social media posts at least. What do you think? 🤔
I do that sometimes and don’t know if it’s for nothing. Might depend on the country?

I’m not sure if you’re right: https://www.reuters.com/world/us-public-support-israel-drops-majority-backs-ceasefire-reutersipsos-2023-11-15/ – and that’s almost 2 months old, support for Israel has probably not gone up.

I don’t think support of the Palestinians was that clear even a few weeks ago. At least in relation to current events. Opinions were in a lot of flux
Eh not sure about that
I think they’re talking about the tankies, who love Russia and think Ukraine had it coming.
