Zohran’s latest statement is disgraceful. It hides behind the language of morality while reinforcing the same frameworks that dehumanize Palestinians.
He begins by calling October 7 a “horrific war crime,” centering Israeli suffering as the starting point of the story. That framing erases the decades of siege, occupation, and systematic killing that led to that day. It makes Palestinian resistance seem like senseless violence rather than a response to unending colonization.
He follows with mourning for Gaza, but only after reaffirming that Palestinian resistance must first be condemned. This is what passes for “balance” in liberal politics: treating a colonized people’s fight for survival as a moral failure while describing their annihilation as a humanitarian tragedy.
By calling for “diplomacy, not war crimes,” Zohran implies that both sides are equally guilty, softening the reality of a one-sided genocide into the language of “conflict.” He refuses to name power, which is the easiest way to protect it.
Invoking “universal human rights” sounds principled, but it empties the struggle of its political meaning. Palestinians are not asking for abstract ideals. They are demanding freedom, return, and liberation from a settler state built on their destruction.
At a time when Gaza is being erased, statements like this do not show courage. They show complicity.
Holy shit, this post is insane, both Hamas and Israel are bad. Israel is worse for committing genocide. Hamas is a terrorist organization that if given power would take away rights based on religious beliefs. Israeli citizens, like any civilians, don’t deserve to be randomly killed. Zohran is right on the money here. This isn’t him moving right, this is actually the most damaging take to the hegemon.
Y’all are psychos and FBI plants.
How does this make us fbi plants? maybe splitting up the left? maybe you shouldnt put the victim and the perpetrator on the same level?
It takes a real rotten piece of shit to condemn people fighting to escape a fucking concentration camp, while peddling Israeli propaganda as justification for why they should be condemned.
You are so embaressingly uneducated on this matter, and there’s really no excuse at this point for it, so I just hope you go fuck yourself.
Palestine has the right to defend itself
Imagine calling a resistance to a genocide ‘terrorists’ and equating them with literal genocidaires.
You would have been on the side of Germany in 1930-1940s.
Hamas is imperfect but good actually you fucking dumbass.
Idk bruh, one side is literally fighting against a genocide. Also, none of this is new, if you have moved to Israel in the last 90 or so years you are absolutely complicit in the occupation and genocide.
This is of course assuming any of our opinions, especially Zohran’s, actually matter to and are inherently damaging to, the hegemon, which is hilarious. Opinions, especially weak shit both-sides hand-wringing do not damage the hegemon. If it was actually dangerous they would kill you.
Shut up libshit
Ouch, you got me. Put that in your report to your FBI boss. I’m sure you will get a raise.
Fucking loser I regularly get fucked with by the FBI go shove yourself headfirst in a dirty toilet
