Pro Palestine Protestors Block Philadelphia Pride Parade

[orange jar]

63. Not very progressive to harass marginalized groups.

And progressives are supposed to align ourselves with people like this? Nah. I support innocent Palestinians, but not these weirdo, anger issues-riddled, wannabe authoritarian protestors. Most people who are neutral/disengaged from the Israel/Palestine discourse are going to be scared of these people instead of sympathetic. Maybe these protestors want that, but how is scaring people supposed to positively raise awareness for Palestine? Don't bother asking them, they'll give you crickets.

This might get me in trouble, but I suspect that some of these protestors who are unable to function like rational adults are so used to crusading against shadow enemies online by using similar intimidation tactics that they think it's acceptable to do that in the real world, too. Too bad for them, but most well adjusted people don't spend their entire week bullying less pure Liberals/Leftists online and are going to roll their eyes at this and deepen their apathy for "the cause." Great job, morons. Now run back to your online echo chambers looking for validation and continue living in your underdog superhero fantasy.
