I mean we already have a climate crisis that's threatening our entire civilization. Do you see governments uniting to deal with it in any way?

    To be fair, a giant lizard is WAY harder to ignore or sell as a hoax.

    we have videos and pictures of a genocide and ethnic cleansing that's literally live streamed into devices in the palm of our hands every other minute of every day, but over 60% of americans still can't recognize it as such.

    Ok..regarding this, I seriously got a text this morning from some political thing that started off by asking, "Do you stand with Israel?" I responded with something along the lines of, "No, I don't support genocide." Which they responded with, "Israel isn't commiting a genocide, it's only defending itself and.." blah blah blah more Israel talking points. It's sickening.

    So it's not just "Americans can't recognize it" as much as a chunk of Americans are getting shoveled Israel propaganda to such a degree it's easier to go along with the lie than face the truth.
