“NO MORE WEAPONS. NO MORE WAR. CEASEFIRE IS WHAT WE’RE FIGHTING FOR”
7,000 Palestinians are already dead and over a million more have been displaced. Israeli leaders continue to openly use genocidal rhetoric.
We desperately need a ceasefire now.
i have not been able to stop thinking about this question since @autostraddle received it, and i really think that @theheatherhogan did an incredible job answering this with both compassion and necessary honesty:

The Harvard Study of Adult Development began tracking the lives of 268 Harvard sophomores in 1938.
It is considered the longest running study on adult life, health, and happiness.
Here are 3 powerful findings everyone should know:
In summary:
(1) Family time is limited—cherish it.
(2) Friend time is limited—prioritize real ones.
(3) Partner time is significant—never settle.
(4) Children time is precious—be present.
(5) Coworker time is significant—find energy.
(6) Alone time is highest—love yourself.
If you say "never again", think:
"What is my own moral responsibility as a bystander of evil?
What has my reaction been to acts and expressions based on antisemitism & other ideologies hatred?
What can I do, to make our world a better & safer place."
And then, start doing it.
At Auschwitz we see the end of the process. It's important to note that the Holocaust did not start from gas chambers & murder.
The hatred developed from marking a victim who could not escape its fate, from words of prejudice, through legal exclusion, violence & dehumanization.
