rewatching 3rd life lately

tags update: israel is now 5th. egypt is 8th, with lebanon, human rights, and middle east trending under it. collonialism and US politics are trending as well

context on why egypt is trending:

on this day(april 8th) in 1970, at 9:20 AM as a part of operation priha, israeli air forces bombed a primary school in a village named bahr el baqar(in el hesenia center. in the east of sharqia governate).

the attack resulted in 30 children killed. 50 children and 11 staff members injured. and the school building becoming rubble

after the attack, at the time israelli minister of defense moshe dayan stated "maybe the egyptians put elementary students in a military base" despite no military activity existing in the area, the "human shields" lie is THAT old. bahr al baqar was just the perfect combination of "damages from bombing it would push the egyptians into a ceasefire" and "not known enough for people to fact check our bullshit"

operation priha(tl;dr)

operation priha was a series of sorties by the israelli air force against mainland egyptian targets to stop egypt from fighting during the war of attrition. bahr al baqar was NOT the only one, on february 13th they bombed an industrial plant in abu za'abal(qalyubia), killing 80 workers. in addition to a long list of egyptian military and navel bases.

DON'T STOP TALKING ABOUT INJUSTICE

Tell me when you get bored. A story about doses. [x]

I posted this on twitter and had a variety of aggressive ableism thrown my way.

This is a story about changing what I can in spite of what I cannot for the comfort of my loved ones. The thing that others find to be hurtful about me is that I like to spend time in silent solitude. People who love me often feel hurt that I tend to solve my own problems instead of leaning on them.

When we spend too much time together, people find my neutrality to be concerning, and it becomes too much for people to be unable to read me.

To show the people I love that I enjoy their company in ways they can understand, I pool my energy together to be high-energy, peppy, and social. Since this is not my natural state of being, it takes effort, which can only be expended in small doses. I amplify the things people like in me while filtering out everything they dislike about me when I am in their company.

I change my behaviors for those I love, but at the end of the day, I cannot change my neutral state of being, which is the thing that they want most out of me.

This is a story about me accommodating people in the best way I know how, not the other way around. I would truly appreciate it if people don't misconstrue this anecdote as me asking for dismissal of hurtful behavior when in reality, people find hurt in the fact that I simply exist, and I must change for them.

Someone Worte that he could not stand to see the Palestine flag anymore.

Sorry, but not sorry

Free Palestine

I am not done yet

Only way to stop seeing this flag is when the oppression is over.

So you are tiered of this? you can end it, stop supporting Zionism!
