That’s a great way to look at it if you’re coming from a place of privilege where it doesn’t affect you directly. The Palestinians don’t get to say “it’s just a trend”. It’s not just a trend for the immigrants being rounded up in concentration camps. Or for the homeless and mentally ill Trump has just declared will also be rounded up. And for the LGBTQ who are soon to follow.
And the destruction of the environment we all rely on to survive isn’t “just a trend”.
You’re only able to have the luxury of thinking it’s a trend because it hasn’t affected you. Yet.
Ok, sure. I do want to point out that I simply answered the question. I don’t deny my state of luxury yet also don’t feel that this bout of whataboutism is entirely warranted.
