It’s depressing how popular this view is, high school classes are not enough to learn about the world and in general we need to unlearn this idea that only knowledge that will make you an economically productive cog in the machine is worthwhile because we all suffer for it
If we hate the cost of college so much, let’s get rid of all gen Eds that are unrelated to a major. Why do I have to take a music class when my major is meteorology? It makes no sense and is a huge waste of money. HS is for broad education, college is for specialization.

When a 19 year old Zionist soldier is killed in a country w mandatory signup from the age of 18, they want us to treat them like a child/civilian, when they kill a literal 7 year old Palestinian boy who was simply existing, we should excuse them bc maybe Hamas was close by

It has become normalised to see Palestinian prisoners released emaciated and unkempt, matching testimony of systemic denial of adequate food and other basic rights.
The beloved Omar Assaf, my high-school Arabic teacher & a wonderful community organiser.
He was just released from Israel's prison camps after six months of "Adminstrative Detention" - meaning held without charge or trial, like 5210 other Palestinians kidnapped since October 7.

How are we supposed to coexist with those behind something like this? Why are Palestinians supposed to have zero survival instincts and pretend that Zionism is an acceptable ideology to live with, when this is the result?
These are testimonies of Palestinians who thought they heard children and women screaming for help in Gaza's Nuseirat refugee camp, only to realize that the cries were coming from an Israeli drone broadcasting distress calls to lure them out so it could shoot them.

Just so we could have a talking point about how anti-Palestinian Germany is, I’m worried we’ve oversimplified the history.
Israel doesn’t exist BECAUSE of European guilt, the guilt is a retroactive justification.
It exists because of imperialist interests in the region.
I still can't wrap my head around the idea of Israel.
So, a bunch of white germans kïlled a bunch of white jews.
And somehow the solution for this is to take land from and colonize a 3rd middle east nation, who were not party to the conflict.
The gall of Europeans.
