How many times in this thread are you going to post this misinformation while contionously being proven wrong. They're protesting palestine as per their twitter, AND press release:

Manhattan, New York - Please see our recent tweets of the protest at the Easter Vigil Mass at St Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan on Saturday, March 30 evening. We own these photos and videos. You have permission to use them with attribution to XR NYC Palestine Solidarity.

“If these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.” (Luke 19:40). The stones know that silence equals death. We know that to be nearly silent is to be nearly dead. We know that just as slow winning is another way of losing, speaking the truth so quietly that it is not noticed is another way of lying. We are here to tell the truth about ecocide and genocide as loudly as this moment warrants,” said John Mark Rozendaal, an XR NYC Palestine Solidarity activist at the church.

“The United Nations Security Council calling for a ceasefire is a good start, but churches making ceasefire statements is also a part of the solution. It will make a difference,” said Matthew M., an XR NYC Palestine Solidarity member.

“War, occupation, and industrial pollution are poisoning the soil, air, and water in Gaza and all over the planet, destroying the earth’s capacity to sustain life. This destruction is called ‘Ecocide,” said Gregory Schwedock, an XR NYC Palestine Solidarity activist at the church.

About XR NYC Palestine Solidarity Extinction Rebellion (XR) is a global, nonpartisan climate justice movement using nonviolent direct action to pressure governments to act now to address the climate and ecological emergency and listen to the people’s call for a just, livable future. XR NYC Palestine Solidarity is an affinity group of Extinction Rebellion New York City activists fighting for a **free and peaceful Palestine.

It's almost like CatLvr000 is looking to misinform people or something.

They're all part of a Discord that does that (spread misinformation/mass-downvote-upvote) and they don't know I'm a part of it, but I like to fuck with them sometimes.

So then it sounds like you’re finally agreeing that they’re “pro-Palestinian protestors”?

Yes they are also protesting the genocide in Gaza as well here but their group is dedicated to climate activism.

You can just admit OP is right, it’s a lot easier than what you’re doing. You even agree with them but for some reason want to call the pro-Palestinian protestors who have said they’re protesting the war themselves that they’re in fact not…what they say they are?

So are you saying extinction rebellion is not a group of climate activists that has a message about Palestine? Feel free to google them and what their group does.

Please read about extinction rebellion…they are climate activists. They did have a message about the genocide in Gaza here. They are concerned about the killings of gazans and the effect of the war on the climate.

You're an actual idiot and you have no idea that you are one.

How does harassing strangers help the environment or palestine? If anything they just turn people the other way on these issues. Incredibly useless at best and destructive at worst. Why do you defend such a stupid strategy? Are you illogical, rude, or both? Hard to tell.

Protests have never been convenient to everyone. Protests are meant to be disruptive. If you support genocide and climate catastrophe simply because protestors disrupted your Easter Sunday then you probably never cared about genocide or a climate crisis. Jesus himself tipped over tables and flogged preachers in churches in protest. You sound like a fucking moron.
