And boy do they get butthurt when you tell them that they're privileged.
I got one person really indignant with me when I called them privileged because they were pushing accelerationist bullshit about Palestinians being genocides because they didn't have to deal with the results of their rhetoric.
I've seen the same in someone I know personally. He's a pacifist, and being against funding Ukraine is at least consistent with that, if completely shortsighted and demonstrating how pacifism is an end goal, not praxis that we can do right now. He's also smart enough to realize what a losing argument that is and focuses on Palestine instead.
