No JKs goal was to get Amnesty to pull support for trans people, which she succeeded at.

Now it’s our turn to use our voices and throw our weight at Amnesty to do the right thing.

If Amnesty is incapable or unwilling to care, it must fall.

That seems very radical. Why entirely abolish an organization that generally fights for the greater good, just because it failed once or a few times? What is going to take its place?

Because next time it will be gay people.

Next time it will be Muslims.

Next time it will be Black People.

Next time it will be Women.

Because Fascism does not stop and must not be tolorated.

Ok cool. We'll do something while you do nothing. 🤝

Tearing down amnesty international is not doing something lol

[–] LemmyPlaceDN@europe.pub 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Have I ever implied that nothing should be done? Of course we need to fight for change. I simply doubt that axing the entire organization is a good solution. That would be like fighting your potential ally.

We're not axing them, we don't have that power it's just rhetoric. We're pressuring them. They need to know that the general public will NOT stand for billionaire bigots sticking their ugly noses in our affairs. That's the position we're in now because THEY caved.

You're punching the wrong people. Way to "do something", jfc.
