Reblog If You Stand Against Order, Civilization, And Goodness Itself

Came across one of the saddest videos from Gaza today. I actually don't know if it's from today or not, but it's of a father saying his final goodbye to his baby over video call. The baby was killed in an Israeli air strike and was held by his uncles who were lamenting with the father that his son was born during this genocide and was killed during this genocide without his father, who's working abroad, ever meeting him. The video ends with the father, through a grainy video call, crying and begging his brothers to kiss his son for him over and over.

Out of sheer curiosity I decided to go through the comments, perhaps I was subconsciously trying to give myself sometime to sit with this unimaginable agony before scrolling to anything else.

What I saw was that the majority of the comments were all the same, just multiple iterations of "how is this ok?" and "how can anyone find this ok?"

But here's the thing: this is obviously not okay and millions of people around the world have collectively made it very clear that this is an abhorrent genocide that we are witnessing unfold right on our screens. "Not ok" is the most hollow way to describe it.

At this point in time, it is desperately crucial for your focus to shift. It has been six months of this ongoing carnage. We know this is not ok and you need to stop appealing to the minds of those who think otherwise and get to actual work.

Instead of regurgitating the same empty and powerless question of how could this be ok, we really need to be asking different questions. Instead of projecting with your "I don't think this is ok and I wonder how come you don't", perhaps invest in asking harder questions and start looking for actual ways to mobilise, aid, organise and put in meaningful work towards stopping this genocide or at least bringing more attention to it.

Get to work and quit asking stupid questions in the face of atrocity.

not only is this guy trapped in a musical, he’s also trapped in a timeloop apparently

From AL Shifa Hospital earlier: The little boy is screaming:

"I'm scared, I swear I'm scared I wanna go...."

This is too much for a child to experience.

His screams would never leave my mind, ever.
