Redyellowlollypopsbiscuits - Heya :))

sounds harsh, but loneliness is a solvable problem. like yes, there are structural reasons behind it but those won't be taken care of by lamenting online.

"I'm lonely because I'm X Y or Z." no, dude, like whatever issue you're blaming it on is not why. "because I'm ugly" there are ppl worse looking than you with vibrant social lives. "because I'm X demographic," nah, man, there's people just like you, same demographic, who aren't lonely.

it sucks to hear, but your social life is your own responsibility. get off the phone and go find a hobby group. go play some darts. take interest in what your coworkers have to say, quit acting like they're NPCs. can't leave the house for some reason? join a forum, make some friends, have a weekly video call.

engage with your community. it might feel awkward at first, but going to a street festival or farmers market or bar alone is more proactive than sitting around feeling bad for yourself. nothing going on near you? make some flyers for a bookclub or something. your social life is your own responsibility.

Are you actually serious? There are multiple news stories showing Israel has invaded the West Bank of Palestine. That person is probably from there and is reporting on it. Why are Palestinians unreliable, but Israelis aren’t?🤔

The IDF is currently invading the West Bank, the largest since 2002.

The IDF is already attacking hospitals in the West Bank

I keep seeing brutal Israeli attacks against Palestinian civilians, and I keep hearing western politicians talk about Israel's right to self defense. Israel is the aggressor - it is not defending itself, it is continuing its decades-long campaign to kill and drive out indigenous Palestinians to make way for its expansion and ensure its desired demographics. Ethnic cleansing for the furthering of an ethno-nationalist colonial project is not self defense - it is criminal. It is aggression. It is murder.

‘Decades-long campaign’ is the key word here. I feel like I’m on Twitter again🤦🏾‍♀️
