      This post is cynical garbage lol. This image is having a massive impact on people. Dont underestimate the impact of “theatrics”.

      Some of y’all will find a way to be obnoxious cynics about everything. Even an actual Palestinian woman holding a “guilty of genocide” sign in Bibi’s face in the middle of congress. Fuck off tbh.

      ETA: The fact that you actually think adverurism, which I thought we all agreed was useless, would be better than this is saying something.

      ETA2: also how is participating in a Zionist government but not partiicpating at all in the actual Zionism at all similar to working for Lockheed Martin? You have lost the plot completely.

      Unless I’m misreading, she’s literally doing points 1-3 in your list above, especially 3, using her platform to decry this genocide in front of a large audience.

      There are bunch of different tactics that could be used when faced with this situation. Some would make a bigger scene, skip the address entirely, protest and speak out front of Congress during the address, resign. I can see why one could be upset with this decision but she chose to do something and it’s more than any of the other ghouls in Congress have done. I’ll give her my critical support. It takes a lot of guts to stand up to the amount of people in that building - not to mention all the people around the country fuming over her theatrics. that being said - she’s a politician like the rest of em and they suck.
