Kind of but it's more that he's saying leftists are very stupid for caring about other people and he's very smart because he makes decisions based on charts. Everything the egg says is really "and that's why I'm smart and good"

I was watching a bunch of steve1989 MRE review videos, a few weeks ago, and the IDF one was just so bad - it was basically nothing but cans of plain tuna and maybe some instant coffee.
Steve explained it's like this because Israeli soldiers can nearly always order pizza instead.

This is kind of what I'm thinking, based on the loving 15 minutes of PT a day, among other things.

They have tried to make the Army palatable, because everyone has to participate in it and they don't want that experience to effect their voting, by removing as many "Army" parts as possible. It's really just summer camp.

However, the parts that remain are in dire loving straits, so I guess you could say they traded a functional conscript military for a politically and socially undisruptive one, the result being if they actually have to go to war everybody has to eat cans of plain tuna and the Gaza division is overrun on the first day of the war.

It does target a certain type of Canadian liberal, couple of months back we actually had fundamentalist muslims and our chuds protesting together against the LGBQT2S community and all sorts of debates where had. Also, apparently those warship heading to Israel contain over 12k troops

I never understood the "girls allowed to go to school" argument for Afghanistan when Canada's most famous battle, White School, destroyed a school. That's on top of all of the ones we bombed, naturally.

Are women in Gaza going to have more jobs once the entire society and economy is destroyed? Is it better to be dead than unemployed?

The demonstrations are important as an epistemological exercise. If the public sphere is completely dominated by pro-Israeli interests, then the only possibility of pushback to that comes from mobilizing a physical presence in public. It's important to maintain a political counter-narrative rather than allowing private interests to completely control the public space. Anybody who thinks demonstrations are pointless because they don't have an immediate policy outcome, doesn't understand the ideological struggle within the political process.

That's very nice and academic, but can we agree that the needs of the Palestinians is somewhere closer to the "immediate" end of the spectrum?

Consciousness building is well and good, but we've seen enough peaceful protests lead to no positive outcome or worse be co-opted into supporting the status quo, that you have to wonder at their efficacy.

There is:

1) No central organization that can make demands to consolidate the gain

2) No leverage or disruption forcing a concession.

Compare and contrast a strike.

The "Gazans are homophobic/anti-feminist, checkmate leftie" people seem to believe that women and gay people in Gaza are immune to Israeli JDAMs.
