    This would be even more powerful with sources provided, but for now I will assume it is correct on face value; I am appalled by the handling of all this by our leaders. Only when a fraction of the people of Palestine are still alive, have politicians began to speak up, all at once, as if they were given a green light from somewhere(one). The whole situation stinks like hell on earth.

    Apologies will not suffice to amend what our leaders have permitted to happen these days. Darkest times, I truly wish and lightly hope, that those primarily responsible will be held to account. Those who supported it, but did not actively participate, re-educated on the simple fact: Why it is NEVER, EVER, OK to kill another, for difference of belief.

      i had a discussion last night with someone who wanted sources and then dismissed them anyways and it makes me wonder where the balance is in having sources and wasting time in preserving them.

        There is no one right answer, check who you are talking to and whether you consider that person worth your time…

          unfortunately, it’s not possible for me until i’ve already started the time investment.

              It’s the downside to socializing primarily w people who share most of the same minority identities you have; it makes it so that they’re usually aware of the indoctrination that they’ve ingested since birth, but I keep running into the clueless ones somehow.

              I’m retrospect, it should have been a warning sign when he told me that he was a veteran.

                Signs are always there. Are you open to sense? Or just want to gamble and dive? Follow your instinct. 😊

    These monsters treat human rights violations like the cost of doing business. Absolutely disgusting.

    It’s not the place for this but fuck social media and everyone that is more interested in pandering to algorithms than reporting the news. Fucking say sexual abuse. Why are you hiding it behind a fucking initialism.

        We’re talking about sexual assault here. When you censor and refer to it as SA, you’re minimising the gravitas of the crime. It’s very much a crime committed or at least sanctioned by a state. It’s manipulation. Hamas invited the UN to investigate accusations of them sexually assualting prisoners. On the other hand we’ve seen evidence of Israel sexually assaulting prisoners and there’s no action or sanction. This is allowed to happen because key words that we’re rightfully appalled by are initialised or censored, so we don’t see it as bad as it is.

        But as I said, this is an issue that extends just beyond this particular incident.
