#the news is so fucking horrible #my therapist told me a long time ago that I should take a step back from social media #like a year or two before the pandemic #bc i was in a state of having constant panic attacks that would trigger throat spasms that made it difficult to breath or swallow #anyway I get triggered by constant bad news bc of my shitty nervous system #but it’s calmed down enough where I felt safe coming back to at least tumblr #but god this past week with everything that’s happening in Gaza #me and my partner have been losing it #I don’t understand how we can watch the US gov and Israelí gov literally team up to steamroll an entire people in the span of a few weeks #and I don’t understand why some people find it appropriate to nitpick who’s more oppressed here #like guys hear me out #this might sound crazy #but I think the people trapped in occupied territory currently being bombed and raided rn don’t care about your identity politics #when ppl say that their government are going to another country to /eradicate evil/ in order to prevent another holocaust from happening #um #it’s horrifying #bc capitalism/fascism/hate has justified genocide #via the story of /we have a right to defend ourselves/ #why is it so easy to dehumanize an entire group of people #how did it get to this point? #and tbh I don’t care about the history #this is about how people agree to go to war bc it’s okay if /they/ are the ones doing the oppressing #how you can say /innocent people in Gaza are dying/ and someone else can respond with /it’s not Israel’s problem bc hamas is a terrorist/ #how can you sit there and comfort yourself with this hollow narrative when infrastructure is being destroyed via US funded bombs #their water supply cut their bodies catching diseases #a call to denounce the gov for their actions is not an antisemítico stance #people are dying people are dying people are dying and we keep saying never forget but people are still dying #I feel like I’m choking #I pray for the people of Palestine and the land and the olive groves
