It may die eventually, but it’s not going to die in Gaza or because of Gaza/Isreal. Give it a few months and there will be another war to focus on and we will see fewer articles about Gaza, just like we see fewer articles about Ukraine.

In places where displaying the Palestinian is banned or restricted (Israel, Germany, etc) people display images of watermelons instead to circumvent those bans.

Thank you! I was wondering if it was some sort of Unicode mismatch or something, lol

Displaying the Palestinian flag is not illegal in Germany. That's misinformation.

In case you're interested what is forbidden: https://www.mdr.de/nachrichten/deutschland/politik/pro-palaestina-demonstration-verboten-illegal-100.html

Edit: someone answered further down. It's a replacement for places where their flag is banned.

Uh... Why is Palestine's flag a watermelon in your post?

🇹🇼 of course. Pelosi's visit was just the warm up. The election of the imperialist backed DPP is too obvious a sign.

I can't wait for Taiwan to become an independent... corpse.

GOOD. If this is what the west allows to happen, burn it down.

And what comes after that? Did anybody have anything to offer that would be a better alternative? Does anybody think that a world order dominated by the lines of Xi and Putin would be in any way better than what we have now?

Absolutely I think any country that ISNT the United States being the “wOrLd LeAdEr” is astronomically and unimaginably better and good.

Or do you like the illusion of moral superiority while your troops go murder innocent brown people?

Russia is in no position to dominate the world, and China would be much better than what we have now. Also, lay off the Great Man Theory.
