Lawyer that had a 1/3 life crisis.. Now I copy-write for e-comm brands. Passionate about ALL human beings + puns & slam poetry. Yes, I rant about geopolitics.✨
@AbujomaaGaza
From the bottom of my heart, I am just so, so sorry.
I know words are meaningless in the face of this cruelty but my heart is broken for you.
We have failed you, your beautiful son, your wife, and all of your people. And I am so deeply ashamed, on behalf of humanity.
@jakeshieldsajj
I know it’s so minor in the grand scheme of things, but Theo Von being on the right side of history and not some Israeli shill is one of the only damn things that gives me any hope at the moment. I love that man

I can’t wrap my head around the fact that ANY human with a beating heart, irregardless of race, trauma, political or religious beliefs could look at the sheer sadism and depravity of war crimes being committed on a daily basis against the Palestinians…and think the core issue

I beg your FINEST pardon?!
Have you got links to read more about this?
If there are stricter rules for criticising the behaviour of a foreign country, then your own- that’s a massive issue.
Truth is stranger than fiction, my god
@alon_mizrahi
I feel like i’m going insane. I live in New Zealand, and none of this is spoken about nearly enough. No political figures expressing outrage just ‘calls for a ceasefire’. I’ve been told to think about something else/ that this doesn’t affect ‘us’.
This is about humanity.
@fr0gan
I’m really shocked at some of the comments on this post, I thought the exact same as you did. It was incredibly dismissive of, in my view, the single most important issue going into this election. This response in front of those directly impacted? smh
@kennardmatt
Compassion. Human decency. Basic morals
Where are they? Where are the sanctions ? The condemnation? Why are the Western leaders either silent or still funding this? Why are they giving 30 minutes of standing ovation to a war criminal?
There’s no going back after this. Ever.
@Cancelcloco
I have to say, the timing is really something in itself. Maybe i’ve been way too agressively red pilled, but I do wonder, what this is supposed to distract us from (other than the massacre this morning)
Also the reaction of the crowd behind him?! pretty damn nonchalant.

I’ve just had the absolute privilege of reading this post, DIRECTLY after watching Kamala’s speech in full. What a rare piece of algorithmic gold, and an insanely good juxtaposition that illustrates this point in full force.
Thank you for putting my feelings into much more
@adhdjesse
For me it was simply access to treatment after being told for many years that I was ‘too intelligent to have ADHD’ and ‘There’s no way you would have gotten a law degree if you had it’. The stigma and lack of understanding by psychiatrists aboht adult ADHD is wild in NZ
@ori_goldberg
It just keeps getting worse by the minute too. A group of people PRAYING were also targeted… over 100 casualties. The headlines?
There are pretty much none. Oh, the BBC started their reporting with “Hamas-led health ministry say 72 died”
I don’t have the words for this
@ecomarxi
I’m so sorry that I’m spamming the comments on your posts today, but I’m feral with disgust (more so than usual) with the brutality my eyeballs have seen over the last few hours. And the silence.
Genuine question to you, and your followers with empathy & decency- how are you
@adhdjesse
They saw an objective achievement like my degree but weren’t interested in the fact I derailed my entire life, burned out til the point of exhaustion, missed almost all lectures and terms requirements and only got there by creating enough chaos to factory farm dopamine.
@Gaza_Psych
Sending you immeasurable amounts of love from New Zealand. I can’t put into words my respect at the bravery, strength and adversity you show each and every day.
I wish desperately, every day, we could stop this sadistic depravity, but until then we grieve with you every day and

I thought I had a grasp on humanity. I thought there were values common to us all- irregardless of religion, beliefs, race, socio-economic background.

I wonder how the mainstream media intends to portray this, after this was NYT disgustingly disrespectful take when this story broke.

Thank you for the reminder 🙏That was my exact first thought…
Followed by the sickening/ harrowing second thought of; how much are ‘they’ going to ramp up the incessant slaughtering, whilst the general public and media are preoccupied by Trump’s ear?
Never been more desperate
@alon_mizrahi
Thank you for responding. I hope you know your writing has been the ONLY safe place I’ve found anywhere online, and helped me feel less alone as I look at the world through a completely different lens. Please don’t stop 🙏

This is such a nerdy side note, but the production quality/ editing of the video was sleek. Feel like it adds to the psychological warfare 👌

FFS. ‘Brand new’… Because EVERY women’s dream is to remain and feel like a virgin forever 🤡
For a subset of society desperately trying to be accepted as a ‘women’, they’re damn great at spewing the same sexist, misogynistic rhetoric we’ve fought against, forever. Urgh.

I actually feel you on that front- there’s nothing worse than social justice warriors that are ‘performative’, and just want to feel better about themselves. I’m sorry if i seem like that. I’m just processing.

@Darkiora
@derJamesJackson
It blows my mind how agressively pro Israel they are too. It’s at this point illegal to hold a pro-Palestinian opinion or stance on anything.
I read an article a few ago that talked about how outrageously fearful Germans are about anti-semitism, it’s become an obsession. Even
@21WIRE
And, for the hundredth time today, I have to say…
My god- whatever they put in the Zionist kool-aid it must be one HELL of a potent brew.
I can’t get my head around the cultish worship, and complete degradation of basic morals- as well as the inability to be able to see
@caitoz
I swear Caitlin, every thought or feeling I have that weighs down my heart and soul, you manage to put it into words, context , empathise and help me feel more human and that I am not going insane.
I owe you for the immense amount of therapy money I believe you have saved me so
@alon_mizrahi
I am so DEEPLY ashamed of my own country (New Zealand). I didn’t even feel a shred of relief when this announcement came out because it is absolutely too little, too late.
In fact, in the last few months our Government has removed any neutrality we had on our foreign politics
The utter strength, humility, resilience and compassion of the Palestinian people, in the face of this senseless sadism, simultaneously inspires me beyond belief- and… breaks my heart more.
I see it every day on here, but I’m sitting here crying my eyes out right now, as I got
@kennardmatt
The humility they’ve shown in the face of inhumane depravity on a truly unfathomable scale, is the single most inspiring display of humanity i’ve ever seen.
@SoniaSikka4
@ecomarxi
Its beyond comprehension.
If the sadistic depravity and slaughtering of innocents wasn’t enough to make me lose my mind- it’s that WE, the Western democratic nations’, the ‘free world’, ‘fundamental human rights protectors’ are allowing this to happen without criticism,
@mehdirhasan
The silence, particularly in light of today’s brutal massacre in a humanitarian zone, from Western media outlets is absolutely deafening.
The level of sadism and depravity is beyond comprehension. This isn’t human 💔

@caitoz
You are absolutely correct on this, and this EXACT point is the one that makes me feel like I’m losing my grip on my sanity.
It’s genuinely shocking- because the way they are behaving so brazenly and boldly about their intent and agenda is working against their OWN best
@caitoz
I’m ashamed to admit that I wasn’t as educated about the invasion of Iraq. Was the level of depravity on par with what we are seeing in Gaza currently? Was the propaganda just as lazy, and ridiculous? I did a deep dive on some wikileaks documents, but alas I don’t think I

@Partisangirl

@ecomarxi
I don’t often rant. I should be used to it by now.
But my stomach is in my throat, this has made me absolutely feral with rage. Septic even.
Every single fucking day I see a level of depravity that surpasses anything I’ve ever heard of.
It’s an insult to humanity, just how
@alon_mizrahi
1/ Another brilliant, yet harrowing take. I don’t think that the depths of the psychological warfare inflicted on Israelis is spoken about enough. It’s easy for me to sit here & think “how could any human support something so evil and cruel”, but there’s so much more than that.
@caitoz
Please, can someone more versed in this, tell me what kind of kool-aid and mental conditioning leads to a complete erosion of every single fibre of basic moral deceny?
This is unfettered worshipping of the leader of a foreign nation. This is the most blatant display of cultism

Side note: This is the first video i’ve seen on the Internet in months that genuinely made me smile. A raw bit of humanity. 🙌🙌
@alon_mizrahi
Diplomatic, succinct and correct take as always, Alon.
I’m so sick of anti-semitism having a seat at the table, because it’s completely symptomatic of the current genocide- and even more so- the silence and support of this from our ‘democratic’ leaders.

@Royce_Europa
I agree with you… My secondary theory is that he’a behaving like a man in complete and utter denial, that isn’t willing to come to terms with the fact that his worldview and belief system, was built upon lies. Especially when the stakes (his public profile) are so high.

It’s gotten past the point that ‘plausible deniability’ could be claimed. It’s past the point of sane. He’s made it clear on multiple occasions to his own people & propaganda machines that the ‘hOsTaGeS’ aren’t a priority & just a Pawn piece.

@ArarMaher
It’s happening here (in NZ) and in Australia too. And it just defies all logic and basic moral decency. I still can’t believe we’re supporting this, justifying it and condemning of any criticism of these deplorable, barbaric war crimes.
A little side note on Canada situation.
@skywola
@caitoz
I know, i’m learning that everyday. Luckily (or not) I did get a huge awakening working in Cambodia, trying to get some justice post Khmer Rouge, so how deep the depravity goes in every direction- and it taught me a lot about US interference, bullying, hypocrisy and war

@alon_mizrahi
Nothing proved this fact more in plain sight, than Kamala silencing, then removing protestors at her rally in Michigan with “If you want Trump to win, just say that- I’m speaking”
There’s been countless examples of this rhetoric from both sides of the swamp since.
