I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate

This is why MLK is the only non-violent activist I can stand.

At least he cared

You're suggesting they modify shipping lanes and refueling stations to go all the way around south america instead, just at the drop of a hat?

EDIT: Africa... Whatever. Same concept.

Maybe you missed this image attached with the post.

They are copying the things "the adults in the room" are saying because if you tell yourself you agree with the things that are happening in the world beyond your control, it feels less like you are powerless. I like to think its a coping mechanism for powerless people. At least i hope so, and that most of the people i see just bloodlessly and coldly disregarding human life arent doing so knowingly....

Maybe that's my own cope talking

Unfortunately, there's not much we can actually do.

It's not so much people care more, it's that rich people care more about losing money. Disrupted shipping costs the rich game points (aka $€£). They also have the ear, (and purse strings) of the elected officials.

I've been watching the shit the Israeli government etc (I try not to lump the Israeli people in with their psychos in charge) have been doing, for 20 years. I've yet to figure out what can actually be done to help the situation.

Is demanding that America stop funneling weapons to Israel a moderate stance? Because that's what I said. Is there a specific part of my comment you take issue with or are you just gonna wave your hands and act fed up?

I'm one of those "don't half ass shit" people. We (all of us) tend to have enough resources to do more but pick and choose out of convenience. Stop the genocide. Don't attack people trying to make a living. Don't deprive others out of resources, including the right to live without oppression.
