Best I can offer, move to Palestine I’m sure those guys aren’t talking about the war as everyone else is.

you have to play their game:

"I just find it really emotionally exhausting to speak on because I just care so much and in order to protect my mental health, I have to request that we not speak about this in a casual way because of how important it is to me."

then when they continue, you attack them for being insensitive to ur mentulz and announce you'll have to temporarily disconnect to not be further triggered.

they have dog whistles you can use that says you're on their side enough you don't need to be actively converted.

Genuinely helpful, thanks!

"So what are your thoughts on the genocide going on Gaza?"

"Oh my God it's so terrible but can we please not talk about personally triggering topics right now, I'm under a lot of emotional stress right now due to the ambient transphobia and misogyny in this country"

it's sad I've heard variations of that with just whatever topic switched out. lefties are extremely protective of their mentulz and will consistently use it to drop out of any tough conversation.

if you mention you have a Palestinian neighbor or classmate or something, that's a top dog whistle that you care "enough". I wish I was joking but my landlord did this in convo and they're the worst kind of leftists.

As long as you performatively remind everyone how much you care about people across an ocean who you can't do much for, you don't actually have to do anything and u can claim le victim points if you are vaguely involved in knowing a victim (or a distant relative of one).

I just tell them outright that I don't give a fuck. If you're abrasive enough then they'll be put off and leave you alone, it weeds out the idiots. If not then you know who you're dealing with and you can be friendly.
