I saw a video of a child in Palestine, with such pain in her eyes. She was handed a lollipop and there was just pain. How does one look away, ignore or excuse this genocide? Take a look at the faces of victims of mass killing and genocide through history. There have been so many since the advent of photography that there is no short supply of them.
The US voted. Whether you voted 3rd party to try and break away from the limits of a 2 party system, or chose the Democrats in hopes that it would keep Trump out, I can't really say anything in favor or against. All that I hope is that regardless of your choice, you have not forgotten this genocide that we bankroll against our will. I hope that once the new day comes and a different supporter of genocide takes office, that you will remember this unspeakable horror and push for its end and the dismantling of the power that doubles down in its support.
Genocide is that horrific act that we have grown up learning is the worst that humanity has to offer. If you do not oppose it with every ability at your disposal, then question why. If you find yourself justifying it, educate yourself and take a good hard look at those that share your view and whether that is truly the company you wish to keep.
