I consider the religiosity to be the cancer that validates this cruelty.
People were persecuted under the banner of Christian religion, by the Nazis. Settled land was then taken by those persecuted people under the banner of Jewish religion. People were subjugated and displaced under the banner of that religion. Some of those subjugated people formed a terrorist group under the banner of their Islamic religion. On and on.
Religion taken seriously is and always has been a cancer. Power is the reason for bloodshed, but religion creates the ultimate, unchallengable rationalization for it, and has through all human history.
No one cares which pokemon you want to pray to, when you’re willing to kill or otherwise harm anyone else in the name of your favorite pokemon, fuck you.
Israel shouldn’t exist as a religious state. Neither should Saudi Arabia, or Iran, or Vatican City.
No amount of conditional soup is worth the cancer that is organized religion. Without that, the Israelis would just have to say they like the land they stole and want more, and Hamas would have to declare they killed kids over getting their land back. Suddenly, the intentionally obfuscated conflict becomes clear once you remove santy clause and Thanos as talking points that have to be taken seriously because “respect my faith.” When real people are dying in the name of your faith, Fuck your imaginary god and all their lush history and traditions. A single life has more value than all your spooky scrolls and voodoo holy sites in all religions put together.
Like, I don’t agree with the politics, whole situation is filled to the brim with war criminals, but I must shitpost
Hamas is stored in the balls
no matter who you agree with, Hamas is a cancer. They’re not on anyone’s side but their own. They don’t care about the people of Gaza
