it's some sort of way for people to show remorse for *being of the historically oppressing class* themselves; as this is mostly a talking point I get from white people (in the American definition; as they usually are Americans).
Instead of thinking about how we can make people's lives actually better, they think of what's "racially just" and what land belongs to what "race", with race being a group of people they themselves have categorized, not the people in question.
This is why Israelis laugh at American pro-Palestinians, btw. Because ultimately, this preference of Palestine over Israel - instead of calling out both - is derived from racism. And the hypocrisy is just hilarious.
(Clarification: this also applies the other way around. Preferring Israel in a situation where both are equally bad; just hate both)
