he’s doing what all right wing populists are doing these days; latching onto a popular movement and using it to both improve his popularity and divide his enemies
You’d be hard pressed to find someone to the left of Bernie Sanders who doesn’t support Iranians protesting the right to not be killed for wearing a hijab improperly.
I’ll also grant that that Hamas probably killed a higher percentage of soldiers on Putin’s 71st birthday than Israel has Hamas members since then.
This is a fucking unhinged comment, beyond you using “Putins Birthday” as a dogwhistle for October 7th. Comments like this do nothing but make the Pro-Palestinian anti-Genocide movement look pro-Hamas.

I don’t think this is exclusive to right wing populists.
He’s simply congratulating the side he supports. Biden showed support for the Iranian protesters.
And before someone responds “um actually, Biden is as right wing as Clarence Thomas,” Bernie Sanders showed support for the Iranian protesters too.

fair point!
Doesn’t Iran fund Hamas?

The rate of civilian to soldier deaths on October 7th are the exact same 2:1 ratio that Israel is currently being criticized for. Both governments are shit when it comes to murdering civilians and neither should be praised.
some of them are.
Seems weird to be so anti-Genocide you end up supporting another Genocidal group.
Presumably you wouldn’t stand next to a Nazi who denounces Israel’s genocide.
Would you stand next to an Islamic fundamentalist doing the same?
Like Nick Fuentes and the other Nazis that have praised Hamas? No, I wouldn’t, there’s certainly a better way to advocate for peace than by standing next to someone who would do a Holocaust 2.0 given the chance.
Why do I have to agree with or work with Hamas to want a Palestinian State? That’s like saying I have to agree with “6 million Germans” Nakam. to criticize the Holocaust.
I’m not.
