remember this, when Biden tries to take credit for a "ceasefire" or "brokering peace" early next year. He gave Israel carte blanche to commit genocide as long as they don't f*ck up his re-election bid by dragging it out too long.
We should stop acting obtuse about why people are so unbothered by the death of brown people
We knew why when Ukrainian reports said “this doesn’t happen to people like us” when Russia was attacking them
We knew why when the media portrayed the Middle East as war torn and undeveloped, and middle easterners as thieves and terrorists.
We knew when the United States felt it necessary to invade Lebanon and Iraq and kill their people in the name of “preservation”
In their eyes, war and death are not only reserved, but expected for a specific kind of people
I have spent days grappling with the fact that i didnt have even ONE great peach this summer. If i die before i eat another truly amazing peach that will be my only outstanding regret.
