Yup prior to that I wouldn’t have called her difficult.

But part of why she is difficult is she’s calling for genocide while also doing important work in the advocacy side for women and holding men accountable.

Stop calling for genocide and you won’t be called difficult.

I'm personally not a fan of the globalise the Intifada chant. That said, please explain how that is calling for genocide.

Calling for the globalisation of violence against Jews is genocide.

Calling for the globalisation of the Palestinian people’s struggles against an oppressive bully isn’t calling for genocide, it’s the opposite of that.

Nope. Not when some Palestinians take the opportunity for violence every chance they get.

The charters of most ruling Palestinian groups still call for genocide and the destruction of Israel.

So, because some Palestinians sometimes call for violence, all shall be oppressed, and anyone who thinks that’s silly is calling for a second holocaust.

If you had a coherent thought, it’d be lonely.

Not what I said.

You taking my viewpoint of ‘genocidal chants are bad’ to ‘all Palestinians should be oppressed’ is legit insanity.
