It’s not going to stop the genocide, obviously, but would you rather they just shut up and put up with it? Would you rather they supported Israel?
This is a show of solidarity.
The more there are, the more emboldened others are to do it too. The more people condemning genocide, the more likely politicians are to do something about it. Particularly if those people have public followings of their own.

What the fuck is with the quotes around ‘genocide’?! Not blaming OP for the source’s headline, but I just can’t believe editors are still playing these games
It’s because it’s quoted from the letter. Even if the article was like 90% text affirming the fact that it’s a genocide, they’d still quote it because that’s what the letter is saying and the letter is the subject of the article
