    That is an extremely shitty and inhumane take. We have exactly the same ties to Yemen and Myanmar as we do to Israel and Gaza as we are all members of the human race. Protesters on another continent aren’t making any direct or indirect change. That is being made by the aid workers who are willing to go overseas, not by keyboard warriors like yourself.

      People like you really suck. “Oh, your not actually over there helping? Oh, well your worthless then and anything you do to try to help doesn’t do anything.” You can completely fuck off with that noise.

      And no, we don’t have direct ties to Myanmar or Yemen, and thus protesting on it really wouldn’t do shit, hence why so many people are protesting to get Biden to stop ONE OF OUR BIGGEST ALLIES from continuing an active genocide. We can’t all drop everything we’re doing and travel to an active warzone and help, but at least people are trying to get our government to do something.

        Glad that you think the Yemenis and Burmese are not human. I have no idea how people like you look in a mirror let alone survive daily life. BTW, where exactly did I say anyone was worthless? I did say protests here are not helping the situation overseas but that is a far cry from calling anybody worthless. Why are you projecting? Do you feel worthless?

      I was excited. I thought I might learn something new about the conflict in Myanmar. Then this came out…

      as we are all members of the human race.

      And now I pity you.
