    “severity of impact” – a few hundred people made slightly late to things vs. tens of thousands of civilian deaths. How do you type this without pausing to consider how absolutely monstrous you’re being?

      How do you type this without pausing to consider how absurdly hyperbolic you’re being? I don’t support Israel in its war against Gaza whatsoever, I was thrilled to see the war crimes charges against Netanyahu and public sentiment turning against the conditions there but if I don’t support freeway blocking protests in another continent that don’t even attempt to separate out those that support the war, I’m being “absolutely monstrous?” How could anyone be expected to take you seriously here when you exaggerate THAT badly?
