This kind of rhetoric (most of it; Hamas is a resistance organization and much of what they've been accused of has been proven false and Israel is refusing to allow any further independent investigations) is exactly what we've all been saying, and it's Marjorie Taylor Greene saying it?

Have I woken up in an alternate universe? Is the Mandela effect happening?

Literally that first part most especially: trying to explain to people by asking themselves to try putting themselves in the shoes of people from Gaza; it's a sentiment I barely see from pro-Palestinian democrats, but now MTG is saying it? Asking people to think about what it's like if they were going through this?

Also I want to mention, cause it bears mentioning, MTG actually spoke out AGAINST refusing Gazan children to go to America to receive aid.

Seriously, have I woken up in an alternate universe?

I don’t give a shit what Marjorie Taylor Greene says. I care even less to speculate about what she secretly believes. She’s a bourgeois politician. They will all say anything and they all believe in nothing. I give a shit what they do. To the extent that she acts to materially impede the genocide of Palestine, it’s an unqualified good regardless of what other evil shit she does, says, or believes.

The idea that people can only ever be all good or all bad and that a good thing becomes a bad thing when it’s said by a bad person is child-brained nonsense.
