I've been on the fence about buying one, worried about appropriation. I'm as white and male as they come. I take it I'm wrong in my worry based on this? Happy to wear one out of solidarity even if it gives someone a small miniscule feeling of support.

(USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

you are fine to wear one. it’s not appropriation.

it’s support, i am of Pakistani origin, and i am going to wear mine more often.

edit: please use it like a scarf, i don’t want internet friends to get shot. I love you all.

The U.S. doesnt even care about mass school shootings within its own country. Its not going to care about this.

Whenever one happens with dozens of deaths, the only thing we focus on is protecting gun rights.

Its been loving me up all day and I havent found the words for it.

Theres been one off snipes and shootings of Palestinian civilians (and I hate that I can say that)
But something on this level? to round up a bunch of people even the Israeli government wouldn't have the balls to claim as combatants and just execute them?

its beyond the pale.

Even among bombings that take dozens of lives, and wipe out families, this atrocity stands out.

A bunch of white Zimbabweans moved to Australia in the 90's when Mugabe came to power. They didn't know how to do basic stuff like cook for themselves or work a washing machine because they had black servants to do everything for them. One Zimbabweans tried to order some random local Aboriginal men around like they were servants and it didn't go well for him.

They're going to go back to Brooklyn and Long Island and make New York worse

fwiw this isn't what happened, no-one was driven out and historians now think that it wasn't so much a colonisation as a shared coastal culture that developed at the same time due to trade links

Nah that's not what I meant, I meant from the american and canadian media perspective. Myself I am pretty close to completely emotionally broken by this entire genocide and can't sleep at night, but obviously i am in no way a victim compared to the Palestinians so just not posting bout it

I remember reading a book by the canadian UN general romeo dallaire about his experience in rwanda and how broken and devastated he was. Can't imagine how bad that was. It sucks

im way too nihilistic to believe me witnessing anything helps anyone but i think it helps to share the information that is coming out of gaza as a group because it's both very traumatic and also people are actively trying to make you feel insane for believing any of it, even though it's completely documented on film and photograph testimony from credible witnesses, historical examples to compare to, military knowledge etc.

It's especially weird because the other version of events is just "Hamas spends trillions in aid on baby-powered doom laser, IDF reports." It's been nice to have a source of information that contains some amount of actual information while the official line has gotten crazier every single day

Unless the school massacre becomes a big deal in Arabic news media to the point it forces a crossover into western news, you're probably never going to see it on 24/7 cable. So don't stay up looking for it. If it is reported on it'll be "alleged" and the victims will be "women of military age" and "persons below military age."

There are no strategic targets to bomb and terror bombing was objectively counterproductive. Netanyahu is pleading for excuses to lose.
