    god i just don’t give an absolute shit about what israelis are going through rn ngl. i feel bad for like, jewish people who aren’t settlers that are worried about their families, but wanting anyone to empathize with people who live next to an open-air mass concentration camp is ludicrous.

      like, if you live in america, next to a federal prison, are you like, surprised if someone breaks out? no, that’d be insane, you have to accept the nature of the carceral state in some way if you are constantly materially confronted with it.

      edit: specifically, everyone near such an unstable situation as caged human beings knows that it’s analogous to standing by a bomb. it will eventually go off. the question is just when, and how you’ve prepared yourself for it, and what happens next.
