Disclaimer: I barely know what I'm talking about. I'm just putting some thoughts out there because I'm honestly confused about some things. These are the words of someone who can barely understand what anyone is saying and also trusts no one on the internet. I've accepted that I am too stupid to understand this conflict and no matter how much research I try to do, I will never understand any of it. Believe me, I have tried. These are the ramblings of a confused idiot who is out of the loop on everything and will never really be in the loop.
You can add your own thoughts or disagree. But don't yell at me for my thoughts. I've tried to educate myself, but that has failed. But I still want to throw some thoughts into the discussion using my limited understand of everything. I will likely be turning off notifications to this post if too many people shout at me for not understand shit or agreeing with them, so probably don't try to change my mind. Just say what you want to say and add your own essays in the reblogs.
~~~~~~~~~
I've been trying not to say too much about the Israel-Palestine conflict (not just Gaza, but in general) since it's so complicated and messy and I'm not informed enough on another country's massive, decades-long conflict for me to feel comfortable commenting on it. However, I have had a little nugget in my brain that has been bothering me for a while now. A common Zionist argument I occasionally see is that Palestinians aren't actually "indigenous" to the region of Israel-Palestine, and that they are invaders. They came from somewhere else to live in that area, and therefore aren't "the true people of Israel." But I find this argument rather silly and a bit hard to believe.
First off, and I'm not even saying this as an argument against Israel, but isn't the whole point of Jewish mythology (mythology is the technical term) that Israel is "the Promised Land?" As in, the end point? The final destination rather than the start? Maybe I'm confused and need to brush up on Jewish mythology, but from what I remember, the Hebrews came from a different region in the Middle East, then migrated to the region where Israel is. Therefore, they didn't exactly "originate" from there either.
It's also kind of hard to believe that there weren't already other people who were living there already. And then Abraham and his family moved to Egypt anyways due to drought, and the Hebrews were there for hundreds of years before coming back to Israel. And by the time they'd come back, a bunch of other ethnic groups had already made their homes in Israel, as people had been doing likely long before Abraham and his family first came to the region.
And even if Abraham and his family originally came from that region, Abraham already lived in civilization. Civilization still existed there, and people were still living there. Abraham was basically part of a different ethnic group before he created the Hebrews. Therefore, the Hebrews would be from Israel, but so would all of the other people already living there who weren't descendants of Abraham.
Whether or not you believe that the region belonged to the Hebrews by the will of God, all those other mfs were still living there first. You can say that you own the land because God said so, but you can't truthfully say that all the people who were there before Abraham was even born are not native to the region.
Even if we're not looking at Biblical accounts, realistically discussing archaeology and patterns throughout history leads us to the conclusion that there was no singular native ethnic group in Israel.
It is well known that Israel has had, like, hundreds of different peoples who have lived there at different points throughout history. It has switched around a lot of times, and has definitely had multiple ethnic groups living there at the same time. It is a region that has historically been diverse, and many have called it home.
On top of that, who is to say that Palestinians aren't actually also natives to that region? I've heard some people say that the Palestinians are decended from Arabs who invaded the region, but is it really true that all of them are of Arab decent? Again, this area is incredibly diverse, and I'm pretty sure it was ethnically diverse even before Israel was founded. It's unlikely that
Also, haven't the Palestinians been living there for thousands of years anyways? Because in that case, I'd say it's questionable to declare a pretty diverse group of Middle Eastern brown folks to not be native to a region they have been living in for hundreds/thousands of years.
Especially when a large number of those who moved to Israel when it was founded (refounded?) back in 1948 were of white European decent. I believe that Israel is still the homeland of the Jewish people, but is a white Jewish person whose family has been living in Europe for hundreds of years really more native to the Middle East than a brown person whose family has been living in Palestine for hundreds of years?
Like, I see these white ass mfs sitting here saying "I belong here more than you" to these brown people who have been there for generations. This statement is not about Jewish folks who have been living in the Middle East for generations, mainly just those of European decent who declare that the land belongs to them more than those who have been there forever.
I still believe that the Hebrews should be considered "indigenous" to Israel, but to say that they are more indigenous seems disingenuous when both groups migrated to the region. No one group has ever been the true native group of that area, and I feel that either side arguing that the other is not native to the region is full of shit.
We don't know who is native to the region. We barely even know if Israelis and Palestinians each are made of singular ethnic groups. So I feel like declaring the "One True Indigenous Group" is pointless and redundant to the discussion. Either both are or neither are. Shut the fuck up.

"How would Newsies and the Barbie movie be related"
Shon Greenblatt played Oscar Delancey in Disney's 1992 movie Newsies, Arianna Greenblatt, his daughter, played Sasha in the 2023 movie Barbie, therefore Sasha is Oscar's daughter

I feel like if you're a member of the Batfam visiting Jason is like making a social call in a Jane Austen novel. He makes tea and then you sit down and complain about your relatives.

Okay, so I have to look a bit more into this, but I'm like 80% sure that when Zeus chains Hera when he hears her sreams he let's her go. It's not like he was taking pleasure in it or anything. But it's also been a while since I read the Iliad, so I might be misremember stuff.
To be honest Zeus I feel like would be more hurt to do that to Hera, but he has a reputation to uphold or something like that.

Cat owners of tumblr
I don't have a cat, but I'm considering getting one in probably the next year or so if I can afford to. So I'm a little curious; do cats learn not to bite or scratch too hard in the same way that dogs do where if you yelp like a dog would if it hurts then they know not to do it again? because I know that when my mother's first dog startled me and I yelped like a puppy he never snuck up on me again... So are cats the same or do they learn to play gently a different way?

Some little Haku-Koku nonsensical super messy talk
Want to see & read some huge nonsensical mess? Then, welcome!
Ok... thinking about this... can't stop doing so, really....
Tumblr media Tumblr media
........ Huh? You have a one just like it? Or... is it the 'form-shifting' trick that made you not realize what it is from the first glance? (bye-bey to my little 'white' crane red Haku fantasy, haha.. this thing came to me just now...! The crane shape thingy seems connected to 'Tsukasa' specifically?)
Tumblr media
Was he shocked upon realizing what red koku truly is & who it belongs to OR from hearing Tsukasa's voice? Hmm... well..... um...... red koku was used in there right....? Don't know how to say it.... shouldn't it turn out like this....?
Tumblr media
Or..... it's not the fire thingy nor that thing that gets red Haku to react... maybe this is the catch?
Tumblr media
Is red koku used in the process of changing the rumors in some way...? Alongside the mysterious radio? Hmm... and it's cool... Hanako's knife was able to cut red koku... while Teru's fest and exorcism stuff did nothing... why is that?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Though, it's cool it did a fiery show right after both things happened. In one of them... it was indeed too cool... revealed someone... too fascinating to say the least....
Tumblr media
Gotta say... I love that little pose of his... red koku looks cool in there, unlike in the Teru one... and... I have to say... such a cool first introduction... woooh....! Ah... talking a bit more about Teru in this situation... when he fought Hanako in the past, he separated him from blue Hako... so he won't become 'not an evil spirit' as Hanako puts it... on the train... he was already using it... yet Teru managed to work around it somehow?
Tumblr media
He could work around blue Haku... yet couldn't work around red Koku... well.. it was Hanako using it... not blue Haku itself. Ah... speaking about that... what is blue koku for btw? We've never seen it in some 'special' use of its own before? Does it have some special use we will learn in the future... make you think...
Ah... speaking about Tsukasa (a yorishiro/ a sacred thing) a bit more... later on... Nene was able to do some damage to him... why? Is it: 1/ She is a special priestess/kannagi as it was said so... she purified him in some way... but... can a yorishiro be purified? Is a yorihsiro even considered an evil spirit? ........... 2/ Because it's Nene (being the current kanagi) ...  she can work around yorishiros just fine... not only by peeling off their 'seals' ..... 3/ Or... he (and red koku) was just too weak by then... ehhhhh........ -aaaah... while Tsukasa was supposedly asleep in Hanako's boundary... were his kokujoudai asleep, too? ehhh... too little is known about these things....
hmm... won't lose anything so let's think about this as well.....
Tumblr media
............ who are those with 'unsealed Hanako'? Haku (why not white?) ? Koku? Both fused together? ......... too confusing.... too confusing......
................. The mystery of Hako & koku is truly something...... * will share this fun thought that came to me some time ago, Tsukasa & Amane are twins... 2 halves of the same thing... hmm... in that light... wouldn't it feel nice if Hako & koku were like... 'twins' ... 2 parts of the same thing...? thing is... they are 4...... the 2 blue together & the 2 red ones together??? ...........
Tumblr media
Don't really want to include the anime stuff in here but... this thing is too hard for me to ignore.... for some reason.... Soooo.... Have it before I leave.
