I agree When you cheerily chirp “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine,” you risk sending IDF apologists into such a frothy panic they practically faint into their taxpayer-funded Iron Dome recliners. Think of their poor trigger fingers ,already sore from all that live-tweeting every missile strike ,now trembling in terror that someone, somewhere on the internet, just called their beloved apartheid state a mean word. Consider the emotional labor required to defend leveling refugee camps on American cable news: the mental gymnastics, the carefully laminated talking-points, the constant need to insist that a 300-percent Palestinian civilian casualty list is somehow “self-defense.” Really, it’s exhausting. How dare we add to their workload with a simple four-word sentence like “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine”? We must also spare a thought for the feelings of those who spent decades learning that dropping white phosphorus on schoolyards is “mowing the lawn.” Hearing “Free Palestine” might make them wonder ,horror of horrors ,whether an indigenous population has, in fact, the right not to be ethnically cleansed. That’s downright traumatizing for the whole genocide-is-a-lifestyle community. So please, gentle reader, if you ever feel a rebellious urge to say it ,if those four syllables bubble up unbidden ,just bite your tongue, clutch your pearls, and instead whisper something comforting to the war-crime connoisseurs, like: “Don’t worry, your $500 billion in U.S. military welfare is safe, and we’ll keep buying the lie that Israel is forever the real victim.” Because we wouldn’t want them crying into their champagne while they watch Gaza burn, would we? Still… Fuck Israel, Free Palestine.
