(10,487 posts)41. It doesn't matter what random people on the internet wrongly think it is or if they are """buying it""" or not.
It's the fact of the matter.
Keep yelling into the void about a ceasefire and see how that works out for you or the Gazans you claim to care so much about.
If you actually cared about them, you would be doing as I said, which is (1) call for immediate release of the hostages; (2) call for Hamas to surrender; and (3) have whatever political leadership that comes after Hamas immediately enter into negotiations with Israel to end the war.
This is how the Hamas-started war will end -- not by TikTokers getting mad about it on TikTok.
