I suppose I should have used ‘slacktivist’ or ‘armchair anarchist’, but I felt the implication that you’d be doing what you’re demanding of americans (were the political situations reversed) was enough to muddy the distinction between the three incredibly important terms. I also felt those two were more directly insulting, and liable to be wrong (you might be involved in your local politics IRL), so I chose to avoid using them. Please, let us litigate further this topic I’m sure we both care about instead of talking about something like: how easy it is to demand other people die for a cause when you can’t be asked to do the same.

For context: I’ve been shot while protesting for Palestine once already, and the IDF ripped out my babysitter’s spine with a bulldozer and left her to drown in her own blood while she was protesting. What’ve you done in in your time, exactly, that’s putting your body on the line?

^{edit: bulldozer, not backhoe}
