Whoops, already posted.
Sorry, my mistake. It feels like the recent flare up was more recent.

From my memory I have no idea where the ‘children maced’ accusations are coming from. A male fascist protected behind a line of police brandished a weapon at antifascists nonviolently protesting, and got a face full of mace in response. It was accurately targeted, and even the police with their backs to the fascists who the stream sprayed past were unaffected. There was a fascist woman who brought her children to protest alongside people sieg heil’ing who harassed the police until they arrested Leif while lying about the context of the action.

But the way this is reported in the western media is as though one needs a PhD in Middle Eastern studies to understand the basic morality of holding a people in a situation in which they don’t have basic rights including the right that we treasure most the franchise the right to vote and then declaring that state a democracy

Disproportionate is an understatement.
Meduza has good reporting on this too.
Not included but relevant is the prominent journal editor fired for endorsing a satirical article from The Onion about Israel-Hamas conflict.
That’s correct, Caroline Kwan is not a TERF. The TERFs referred to in the title are the ones ‘protecting a very specific idea of what a woman is’
