I really really hate this prioritizing of Palestinian children. Of course Palestinian children being killed is a tragedy and a crime, but it's 100% as tragic as any other Palestinian being killed. I feel like the narrative reinforces the idea that Palestinian adults are all legitimate war targets.
Yeah, I know, I just think that's fucked. I think that kind of age-based valuation of lives is just the other side of the same reasoning that people would use to say covid isn't that big a deal because it only tends to kill very old people who don't have much life ahead of them anyways.

I think people just generally think it’s more sad when children die
