Joy Metzler left the Air Force as a conscientious objector over U.S. support for Israeli atrocities in Palestine and joined a 40-day Veterans for Peace hunger strike for Gaza. She says it is crucial we escalate our protest to stop genocide.
Walking outside today had as much impact as what she did. 🥹 She’s gonna write a book next. Go on the tour circuit. Good times. Maybe I should do some diet and exercise for Gaza. We can make it a YouTube channel. The Gaza Diet. It’s just where you’re hungry for at least an hour before you get to drink water and have saltines.
Serious question. What do you think is something that I could do that would have more impact than pretending to be on a hunger strike? “Actual hunger strike” is not on the table, I’m not dying for anyone but my cat. And ideally not a felony, but I’m open as long as I can get away with it.
I’m not entertaining your “serious question” because I reject the premise. You know things exist. You’re on lemmy. You’re in the politics sub. You know the answers. You just choose to not accept them, without trying. And I don’t care. But that makes you a joke of a person for criticizing someone who is, at worst, virtue signaling for money. Which is such a whatever “crime”. Find a real issue to get mad about on the internet. Lmfao.
Wow yeah your English went down the tube fast. So, I’m guessing you’re not from the states and don’t know the kind of bullshit “thoughts and prayers” nonsense we have every day. Which is why you were mesmerized by her bravery. You just don’t know what kind of USA bullshit she’s doing
I’m not telling you to do something, I’m saying that this person is demonstrably doing more than you, and that is an objective fact. 🥱
