For mental health reasons, I had taken myself out of most political topics. But lately there seems to be a surge of talk about Palestine and Hamas (forgive me if I spelled this wrong). I do know it’s something to do with land rights, but it also seems to be so much more at the same time. I’m not trying to start any fights. I just want to understand. Thank you.

    Palestinians are denied human rights by Israel.

    Israel prevents formation of peaceful political groups in Gaza, but allows Hamas as “preferred opposition”.

    This supports Israel’s goal of genocide against Palestinians and provides a convenient excuse for bombing civilians.

    If you checked out for mental reasons, do yourself a favor and keep checked out.

    If you want to know news events look at a couple diverse news sites. They’ll do a much better job of informing you than social media.

    But somehow this post has the vibes of purposefully starting this social media fight again. Too many things you know for someone checked out. Too naively suggesting “something to do with…” that’ll rile up people. I call bullshit. Go back to Reddit!
