    Watching the slow rollout of multiple genocides while the world does nothing (or supports them) has really pushed me over the edge. “Never again” was bullshit, the ruling class was never opposed to genocide. If anything they’re in favour of it so long as it pads their portfolios.

    The world has seen the mass slaughter of children and a significant portion supports it doomjak. You rightfully call it genocide and these ghouls will argue that it’s “ethnic cleansing” (as if there’s a difference) because Israelis aren’t herding people into cattle cars.

      CW: suicide

      spoiler

      This whole ordeal has caused me to start considering suicide in the future if/once things get really bad or beyond repair. The world has shown that it’s never going to get better, that it’ll likely be destroyed instead of improving in any tangible way. That things are only going to get worse, and there is no light at the end of the tunnel, except the one coming from the sun as it engulfs the Earth in a couple billion years, finally freeing whatever’s left on it from the evils of the U.S. Israeli permanent ethno-supremacist empire.

      It feels like we’re in a story or setting that’s written by a Fascist, and the Fascist wants the Nazis to win, and that’s what they’re writing. To try to oppose this is like characters in a story trying to oppose the will of the author. Any “victory” by leftists is only for the sake of building narrative tension before the Fascist author pulls a deus ex machina to have the Fascists win over and over again until the end of time.

        CW: suicide/self harm

        spoiler

        Unfortunately I definitely get what you’re saying, I’d rather go out on my own terms than on theirs. I’m not suicidal (anymore) but if they’re going to kill me anyway I may as well go down swinging.

        That said there are a few bright spots out there, as dim and hard to find as they may be. And even if it is hopeless we still have to fight. I’m not doing the fascists’ job for them and taking myself out, at least not without taking some of them with me
