Motaz Azaiza Saying That He Felt Guilty About Only Being A Journalist Is Probably One Of The Saddest

Motaz Azaiza saying that he felt guilty about only being a journalist is probably one of the saddest things I've ever seen.

He does so much for the people of Palestine, especially Gaza. He is our window into the horrors happening in gaza. Him and so many other journalists and photographers risk their lives everyday, just so people can know what is going on.

They are surrounded by death and violence and the sadness of a desperate people.

Him saying that he is guilty for only be a journalist is similar to most of us. We sit in out homes, on our phones and laptops, reposting and showing the world what these Palestinian journalists do. I feel guilty that the only thing I can do is type these words and repost on insta, because even with that, there are still people dying. There is still no permanent ceasefire.

But we have to stay strong. It has been working. People have been protesting. They have been calling their legislators, their state representatives. They have been boycotting. All of this is working.

The Palestinian people are relying on us. These journalists create a window into their life and it is our job to expand it. It is out job to shout so loudly, that all the world will see the plight of Palestine.

Keep reposting. Repost all of them. Follow the journalists, tell your friends to follow them. Tell the world about the warriors of Gaza and Palestine. Make their work worth it.

so you know that official art that Wakui made of south singing?

Yeah that one. It reminded my friend of that one place that nobita from doraemon went with his friends and she sent me these

And so now I think - even though it’s a very small chance - that wakui did this on purpose and I find it so funny and amazing and cool.

like imagine he used to watch it and loved it and then was like “lets remake that one scene” and he did. Like. That’s so cool.

HIORI FINALLY GOT SUBBED

Boycott Disney. Boycott McDonald's. Boycott Starbucks. "Oh but it won't work, it won't do anything" Yes it will. Boycotts have worked before and they will again. Think of the Montgomery bus boycotts. Think about American women boycotting imported British goods during the revolution.

Why do you think popular media is so quick to discount boycotts as ineffective? Could it possibly be because they work? Could it be because major corporations understand that they work and are scared? Could it be because boycotts have historically been utilized by marginalized groups to assert their views and fight for change within a conflict in which they have no power?

Do not have give in to the apathetic nihilism of "nothing I do matters, so why bother?" That is exactly what oppressors count on. Be critical of the media you consume. Ask questions. Look to history. Boycott.

Honestly I was just thinking the other day about how annoying it is when people, mostly Israelis, call this a conflict. Then I found this post and it explained everything perfectly. So here you go, this is also for the people who at times maybe cant find the right words to explain why "conflict", is the wrong term to describe whats happening in Palestine.
