Why do we keep catching strays 😭

I don’t understand the motive. I know the West weaponizes us for everything, is it because of that?

Everyone catches strays, like when the LGBT death squad plants their rainbow flag on gaza or the US posts about their LGBT attack helicopter crew. The system alienates and fragments everyone by tricking one group it hates it slightly less than another. If you aren't principled, it's easy to buy into it.

They’re essentially pitting us against each other and some are unable to see it, or at worst they do see it and play into it.

Yep, it's sad and irritating.

for some people it might be that, for others it might just be reactionary conservative beliefs about gender.

It’s incredibly unfortunate and I can’t figure out which scenario is easier to remedy…
