They were marching for Sudan last weekend, decent numbers, relatively speaking.

 

Weird how one genocide is more cared about than another.

What an absolute tit

Who, me?

 

I was there, as I have been for the vast majority of the Palestine marches, and the regular ones outside the UAE embassy for Sudan.

 

You?

Give him his dues, he was sharing memes on the internet and trying to belittle anyone who wasn’t as ‘active’ as him.

 

He’s doing a great job, the scamp, a great job.

The Sudanese people are a little to African for him to care about.

I get that, some Arabs, don’t recognise the Sudanese/Nubian/Egyptian Arabs as they look down on them.

 

Wild racism.

[Planet Origi]

Don't recognise them as what?

You see my friend you need to make a list of all crimes in the world and allocate the exact time and attention to each and every one of them to be seen as a decent human being. It is not enough to just say that you condemn every war crime every where in the world. 

I am personally a cunt by definition, so I don’t really bother with these distraction attempts.

 

Now back on topic:

Well said. Respect.

You answer my question first, and I’ll be more than happy to answer yours.

 

Thats how conversations work.

Thought it was obviously you. 

 

 

 

I went to a few marches but was falling over myself to vote this guy in...give me a pat on the back.

So nothing, but empty gesture posturing and an insult when you’re called out for doing the grand total of fuck all.

 

Righto.

 

As you were, you’re doing a great job.

I can only speak for myself, but I love pictures of videos. It stops us hearing anything in context or the next line, which may or may not be about Israel needing to stay within international law.

Planet Origi throwing about the ‘mong’ insult again.

 

Absolutely disgusting.

The problem with the self appointed the modern ‘The Left’ is that they’re impotent in the face of anything which challenges their world view as the self congratulatory circle jerk they live in makes it impossible to see nuance, or angles, or shade as they’re spoon fed more and more contrived ways to perform self flagellation in their pursuit of being right.

 

They’ve never been in the trenches, so to speak, and come from a privileged world of anonymity and no accountability.

 

‘T’was better for in my day’ we’d say, if it wasn’t still mine/our day.

 

They’re just screaming at clouds, and invisible enemies, while assuring themselves of virtue through echo chamber feedback, while the world continues to spin.

[Bruce Spanner]

Actually this seems like the right place for this.

 

We have a dilemma at the minute with our daughter.

 

My wife is North African Arab, so my kids have this as their cultural heritage.

 

The kids school has quite a few Israeli kids in it, it’s in North London. They’re not Hasidic and in the main the parents seem fine.

 

A few weeks back the kids were invited to an end of term party at one of the Israeli kids and it was fucking weird, flags are everywhere and a real nationalism vibe. We decided our kids would never be allowed there again as we don’t want them exposed to it. They are regular attendees at marches and protests with us so have an understanding, but we tell them this is what we as a family believe and school is separate.

 

My daughter’s best friend is Israeli and has made a few weird remarks when she has been at our house about ‘The Palestinians started this’ without prompt. We’ve met the parents a few times and while not people we’d go out for drinks with they seemed decent enough until the last few weeks where they have started talking about ‘Home’ and how they can’t wait to get back and weird comments about supporting Isreal at the Olympics, which came across really heavy handed.

 

They have arranged a sleep over party for their kids birthday and were really in two minds about if we let our kid go as we don’t want her exposed to that shit, but at the same time don’t want to interfere with her childhood friendships.

 

Any advice? 

[Bjornebye]

Shitty situation that Bruce. Maybe ask the kids what they want to do and go

with that. Interrogate when they get back (assuming they want to go) then you’ll know what to do next time. 

[Jairzinho]

Speak to the cunt parents.

Daughter is obviously really excited and that makes it worse as we don’t want to come across as arseholes. 
 

My wife’s big thing is that my daughter will overtime develop her own political ideas and may question us on why we allowed her to associate with people who, potentially, support/tacitly support genocide.

 

I imagine there were a lot of conversations like this around apartheid.

We have and for whatever reason they have really started giving off ‘off’ vibes recently, maybe that’s us being over sensitive or not is the question.

 

We have very deliberately never brought politics into it, but it’s getting more difficult as we knew they were Israeli, but obviously had no idea about their beliefs.
