What was mqts take on the Charlottesville protest?
A bunch of people traveling to protest an art fixture being removed is probably not a great comparison to people protesting the death of tens of thousands of innocent people?

Hamas is 99.99% responsible. There are some people who are supportive of the Palestinian cause who have pointed this out. But they are very few. I think anyone who wants to help the Palestinians should be pointing out how much harm Hamas has perpetrated.

Palestinian children didn’t massacre and rape innocent people.
Actually no. I wouldn’t vouch for the people, but I stand for their right to protest.

Looks like National Rally going to finish 3rd, if the exit polls are correct

The left-wing alliance the New Popular Front has come first in French legislative elections, but failed to obtain a majority of lawmakers needed to control the National Assembly, according to an exit poll.
The predictions from Ipsos represent a setback for the far-right National Rally (RN) – which saw its hopes of an absolute majority shattered by tactical voting and candidates strategically withdrawing.
The New Popular Front (NFP), a hastily formed coalition of socialists, communists, greens and the leftist France Unbowed party, is set to take between 172 and 192 of the chamber’s 577 seats, Ipsos predicted.
It’s followed by the Ensemble coalition of President Emmanuel Macron – which Ipsos predicts will get 150-170 seats, a significant fall from the 245 it gained in the most recent 2022 elections.
Despite topping the polls in a first round held on 30 June, Marine Le Pen’s RN National Rally likely came third with 132-152 seats, which, if confirmed, would dash hopes of installing Jordan Bardella as Prime Minister.
No, that’s a terrible straw man argument. But there reaches an amount of dead children where you have to wonder how well they’re doing at their stated goal of minimizing casualties because the math just ain’t mathing.
Wasn’t this supposed to be the proof that making your election about migrants was the top pillar for winning elections?
Over 13,000. Without October 7, that number would be much lower. The line for when Israel deserves blame is somewhere between 0 children and every child in Gaza, and I think >10,000 in less than a year is too far.

What good is there in protesting an authoritarian extremist group? It’s the same argument as protesting police brutality but not protesting crime. You protest the “good guys” not living up to their end of the bargain.
Yes, it's so much better to protest the people who didn't start the conflict.
This war is Hamas' fault. Israel has a right to take out Hamas. Israel can not stop the war just because cowardly Hamas is hiding behind innocent people.
Like I said we didn't that this ridiculous thought process during WWII.

Again, when is it too much? Is it your position that Israel could kill every Palestinian in the name of eradicating Hamas?
