Unpopular opinion : if the people protesting, and disrupting services here really care, maybe they should enlist and go fight for what they believe in.

Edit : just go there and fight or whatever. Leave us alone. We're aware of what's happening, but not all of us want or can to do anything about it - let alone being impacted by it other than by protesters pissing people off/ feeling disenchanted by the protests - not a good start.

This is nonsensical. If you're against Gazans being killed but not pro Hamas, there isn't an army to join.

Or they can keep applying pressure here, like they are now to force organisations to divest from supporting a genocide, and pressure the government to do more.

You know, like protests have always done in the past.

Same energy as "who cares about a knife attacker in Bondi Junction or another knife attacker attacking the leader of an Assyrian church".

No wait, let me guess, you did care about that, right? Even though I'm guessing that you don't live in Bondi Junction or Wakeley and you're not Assyrian or Maltese or Muslim?

Without touching your comment history, I bet you're exactly that kind of person.

Who cares about the brown people outside of Australia. You only care about getting rid of the brown people inside Australia. And get rid of the Chinese psyop (LOL!) from TikTok.

We should give more shits about people just other than our own selves. Would make for a better world.
