    Yeah, I think the problem with winning a moral or propaganda victory with the West is that in 6 months the attention of the average Westoid will be drawn to the next global incident and by the next genocidal flareup you’ll have to start from zero again with most Westoids.

    That being said, I feel like there’s some sort of change coalescing in the Global South, spurred on in large part by blatant Israeli hypocrisy in opposing a ceasefire.

      A true propaganda victory in the West is hard to imagine, yeah. Maybe it’ll be possible to make a sustainable change in attitudes towards Israel, but even if that happens the Western governments have shown how little public sentiments matter to them anyway.

      Oh! Another benefit is this demoralizes the occupation forces. Soldiers are less likely to volunteer for a war they consider pointless and cruel, which could result in personnel shortages. Also, you know, fragging

      … Maybe? idk
