My God Israel supporters are exhausting. I've never gotten used to it. "Wahh, Zohran wants to murder Jews!" "Wahh, the musician hurt the IDF's feelings!" Shut up. Shut up. Shut the whole entire fuck up. Everyone is sick of your bullshit. There is a genocide happening. A genocide. Babies are being starved. IDF soldiers are telling the Israeli press that they're being ordered to massacre desperately hungry civilians at aid sites. There are vast stretches of the Gaza Strip that now look like the surface of the moon. Trump and Netanyahu are openly working to purge the Palestinian territory of Palestinians so the land can be permanently taken from them. Your feelings don't matter. The world does not revolve around you and your feelings. Your emotional response to whatever made up nonsense you're choosing to have a melodramatic tantrum about today is completely irrelevant. Every single Palestinian who died today, individually, matters infinitely more than every feeling you've ever felt about every imaginary phantom you've pretended to feel threatened by. Anyone who has had the misfortune of knowing a manipulative narcissist has seen all these patterns before. The self-centeredness. The hypocrisy. The horrific abuse, followed by collapsing into blubbering victimhood the second the abuse is called out. The aggressive efforts to control the narrative and frame all critics and rivals as evil monsters. It's a very familiar playbook. My hope for our world is that we one day become so emotionally and psychologically healthy that such cynical manipulations stand out like a white cloud on a deep blue sky. That we become so caring, understanding and supportive of our fellow human beings that the needful get everything they require to lead a fulfilling life, while sociopathy and psychopathy become as alienating and disadvantageous as chronic schizophrenia is today. That we become so tender-hearted that genocide can never rear its ugly head on this planet again, and all the abusive dynamics which made the Gaza holocaust possible fade away like darkness in the rising sun.
