-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

JVP has consistently pushed anti-war messaging instead of pro-Palestine messaging. They were some of the earliest to call for a ceasefire - paternalistically, long before this was something any Palestinian org called for. They demand peace, not justice. They aren't even anti-Zionist.
They do have people who are acting in good faith and very committed, engaging in direct action with high chance of arrest. It's just still the liberal idea of action and effectiveness. A lot of their actions are about asking members of Congress to support a ceasefire and that sort of thing.
They're basically exactly what I would suspect a "civil society organization" to be, like the kind Soros loves to fund. Liberal to the core. But still useful in their own way, situationally.
Local far left communist has revelation that an organization called "Jewish Voice for Peace" consists of Jewish people voicing their desires for peace. More at 6, right after this sponsored snippet from Applebee's
Fun fact about JVP is they have a ton of non-Jewish members but also yes this is true lol.
