      Same as you guys. You where nowhere to be found when the last one without her tried to break the siege

      I’m sorry I, a random dude in the Midwest, didn’t know about a thing happening in the Mediterranean that no one told me about. I’m so ashamed. /s

      What exactly is your point?

          My point is the greta derrangement syndrome you only care about the flotilla when she is there and she is not you don’t care

          It’s not that people don’t care. It’s that people don’t know. That’s my entire point. Media pays more attention because a name people know is involved.

          If people aren’t talking about it, other people won’t hear about it. That’s why “famous” people get involved, to bring attention to it.

          “Greta derangement syndrome”?

            No, he said “greta derrangement syndrome”, not “Greta derangement syndrome”. The difference is he doesn’t know how to fucking spell :D

              Of course, but her being there brings more visibility that the previous one didn’t have.

                I love that she is there but i would like to hear credits for all of them. For example Chris small who never new about him before was the most abused by the idf

      Then it sounds like it should be celebrated that someone with significant presence on the world stage lends their name, bringing the news of this flotilla to further reaches.

      It’s hardly my fault if news about the previous one did not reach widespread audiences. I would have loved to have followed it, too. I simply never saw anything about it.
