the two sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are NOT Israel and Palestine— it is those who are open to working toward peaceful coexistence in the region, and those whose extremist beliefs and actions contribute to perpetual violence
it is worth asking yourself whether your activism is functioning to amplify and support the peaceful coexistence people, or the perpetual violence people
to be clear, there is absolutely room for vocal protest and activism in this paradigm; it is a necessity
but you need to understand that the total vilification, and therefore dehumanization, of one people or the other will only dig this hole of horror deeper
and if you are only able to perceive the existence of extremism among Jewish Israelis or among Palestinians, but not both, or if you are only able to empathize with the collective narrative of one people, but not the other, then I don’t know what to tell you, except that you have lost your way and have become a tool for those who would perpetuate violence

Nunca tan cerca para evitar que me extrañes, ni demasiado lejos para que me olvides. Solo ahí en el medio, por si me necesitas.

despedida. always.
Era una noche triste, lo recuerdo bien, olía a despedida. Pero reímos como si no lo fuera y nos quedamos tanto como pudimos.
