this is by no means some kind of profound realization but the reason people can still stick their heads in the sand and pretend that palestinians aren’t actively facing complete genocide despite countless pieces of photo and video evidence is that arab people (and those who are assumed to be arab) are assumed to be inherently barbaric, untrustworthy, conniving, and violent. the world is okay with an entire civilization and culture being wiped out because “they must have deserved it” for fighting against colonizers. we have libraries worth of evidence that the iof is perfectly comfortable with murdering innocent civilians, but this evidence is immediately deemed as falsified or exaggerated because all arabs are liars in the mind of the genocide denier. or they must have done something to provoke having their people completely wiped out. ask yourself why you immediately determine that evidence of arab suffering is fake or justified. ask yourself why you can look at scorched, mutilated, decapitated arab bodies or watch bombs rain down on arab communities with such flippancy. no religious or ethnic group has a monopoly on suffering. unforgivable violence can be enacted by those who view themselves as perpetual victims. i genuinely implore you to take time to examine your biases and the racism that has been engrained into our culture.
