The genocide is still ongoing and many things are still developing in Palestine, but we are removing the limitation on only posting things related to the operation Flood of Al-Aqsa to this thread, you can now freely post over Lemmygrad again.
Please don't stop talking about Palestine.
Due to popular demand, please keep all posts about the operation to this megathread, sitewide.
Words cannot describe the rage I am feeling right now. Palestine's liberation is such a fucking softball, and if people can so easily cheer for their genocide I frankly don't know what to do with myself in the US.
Apologies for the 'Dear Diary' type post, but I really just don't know how to alleviate this intense feeling.
It's not just the US. Seeing the people around me either not give a flying fuck about a literal unfolding genocide – or cheering it on… how am I supposed to look these people in the eye again? Help them? Why? I'm sickened by them. Never stop explaining, sure; but how does anyone need this explaining?
If we end up seeing a huge massacre of Palestinians, I will never let these people forget. To not be involved in politics or the news is one thing, but to be and to still support Israel is something deeply troubling and I don't need to be your friend or family after that.
This is definitely a make or break litmus test for who I want in my personal circle. I still have some friendships with ignorant conservatives. I will even tolerate anticommunist shit-takes from some friends.
I can and will strike from my life any and everyone who "stands" with this fascist project as it genocides an entire nation on live television.
Israel has already killed over 1500 Palestinians in Gaza, over 500 children.
S'ok brother i come here to see feelings like yours expressed. It's a relief, i promise
