So you agree that that is the publicity stunt part, which the activists can then use to shine yet another light on the evil that is the Israeli government.
Let me ask you this, what are you doing to make the world better or shine a light on things?

Yes, that is very often the point of activism.
Like not long ago we had a string of climate activists basically vandalizing random art and monuments. People called it great activism (especially here on lemmy), because it got attention. Even though these actions obviously couldn’t have any direct impact on the core problem that was protested.
So I think this flotilla is already much better activism. At least they are trying to do something meaningful, even if the attention is the main objective. I feel like you somehow think that I disapprove of this action. That’s not the case.

I write comments on lemmy.
Yeah I’m confused.
Have a wonderful day.
