I didn’t want to direct this question to Americans specifically because, at this point, other countries have shown support to Israel in one or the other way. If my country was financing this, I would be taking the streets. Shit, I’m right now in the hospital but all I can think about is protesting anyway just to feel I did something to stop this madness.

Are you doing something about this? Are you feeling unsettled? How do you feel about all this mess?

EDIT: So, buying Chinese stuff takes the USS Gerald Ford to Gaza’s coast. Also, TIL that that chocolate my cousin gave me when she was 20 and I was 5, (delicious stuff!) made me a slavist-ish. The fact remains, this genocide is being paid and supported by taxpayers money; of course, I was hoping that most of us didn’t pay taxes wishing for this. Thank you all for your responses, some of them were hard to swallow.

    Depends on the genocide.

    No it literally fucking doesn’t. Doesn’t matter what happened before or what happens after. Genocide is never justified. Fire hot. Water wet.

      Considering this guy just slapped the label genocide on to thr question to evoke a moral reaction I think its fine to say depends. It wouldn’t be an interesting comment section if everyone agreed. In ww2 the us dropped Teo bombs on Japan and basically said surrender or we will destroy you. This show of force and threat of genocide was justified in my opinion.
