It doesn’t matter anymore. Really it doesn’t. Palestine granted freedom to the world. Freedom to finally see what our world truly is. The playground of the powerful. Those in Gaza I feel are actually lucky, it’s what happens now to the rest of us that worries me. We can’t go back as a species anymore. We can’t go back to humanity when we have excused the most brutal genocidal regime and allowed them to do what they want. This is the end now. If and when power shifts, the brutality will be tenfold. There are no rules anymore. No laws. No respect. Gaza showed us the monster, and the world either turned their face or accepted the monster with open arms.

Have you read history? We're in the "relatively" quiet happy times right now, and it will probably stay that way until the day we all turn to glass.

But fuck the genocide tho, and fuck anyone who pretends its justified.

Yeah, people didn't really have to bother justifying their atrocities back in the day.

Actually they did. That is what a lot of “history” is. White washing the horrible.
