      I stopped paying attention to it because I’m kinda tired of all the horrible news about everything. I have enough personal tragedies to need external ones. So it was just a general observation: when you escalate a war, the other side will as well. You’re not helping anyone.

        If you’re this ignorant then why did bother commenting with such a flippant remark in the first place? This is not a war. It’s a genocide. For whatever personal tragedy you’re going through it’s not going to compare to the erasure of an entire people. They are being burned alive in hospital beds, bombed, little kids shot in the head by snipers, raped with cattle prods until death, purposeful spreading of disease, starvation. Israel wants to wipe out not just Palestine, but the whole region. Then who knows where else. And you want that to continue?

        Ethnic Cleansing and Settler Colonialism is fundamental to Zionism. Anti-colonialst resistance only escalates in response to that violence. Zionism certainly doesn’t help anyone, it’s a fascist ideology that is antithetical to peace and coexistance. I can’t stand my tax dollars funding a genocide
