In one of my trans spaces there is a trans man who is Jewish...and he has single handly proved how 1. Intersectionality is a thing and 2. Everyone is susceptible to propaganda.
On the first week of the genocide he shared a Daily Wire article from Bari fucking Weiss cause it was against Palestine. (If you don't know, weiss is one of the most influential terfs. She's up there in harmed cause to trans people)
He then proceeded to put the most vile disgusting shit on his Facebook. Had to mute him because of it. Did a check in today to see if maybe he had figured shit out yet....not only is he sharing weird fucking shit now, but it's along side those normal Facebook things like "We must speak out against oppression", "we must always be loving to other people", and "there wasn't any safe spaces in the world so I decided to become that for other people".
I honestly keep him muted for my own mental health cause...how? Like, I've read plenty of theories I *know* why. But...why? It gives me 2020 flashbacks.
I hung out with this guy a few times before the genocide. He's a nice enough person normally...
All of this to say. The best way to not fall down these rabbit holes is to understand a very important thing.
YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO THIS SHIT
The only way I know to not become one of these people spewing hate and getting sucked up by the bigot/fascist machines (and cults for that matter, but cult think being more wide spread then people think is another conversation). Is to understand that anyone, no matter how "smart" can fall for shit. It's the only vaccine I know to brain rot. Always seek the truth. Always seek with a open heart while drawing the line at people actively doing harm. Understand you are not immune to propaganda and the lure of a easy way out.
I want to clarify too on how to know when it's time to take a side. When people bring up Hamas, the phrase "Lady Eboshi is wrong" is the first thing that comes to my mind. Hamas doesn't matter, because they wouldn't exist if it wasn't for the terrible treatment of Palestinians.
Israel is wrong.

River: Can't you just stay with him Vy? Please?
Vy: He is fine, River. I do have other patients you know.
River: But what if…
Vy: He is fine and healthy and well, River. He is not Rylan.
River: I know but…
Vy: Healthy dragon with healthy egg needs a happy and calm nest. Not a panicking husband hovering over him.
River sighed and nodded. Vy had told him this so many times, yet it was only yesterday where he had been hovering over Lucas until the breaking point. He had even managed to make a comment of the heart revealing too much, which had ended in hours of talking and getting an almost heartbroken dragon back to smiling once again.
Vy: Is he nesting though?
River: Not really, I guess the closest is that he is hogging the duvet when we sleep, it’s kinda cute really.
Vy: Fascinating.. That and his eyes.
Lucas: What’s fascinating?
River: You hogging the duvet sunlight. -he winked at Lucas who blushed.- And your eyes. They are truly mesmerizing.
Lucas: I kinda miss my normal ones, but they are growing on me, if that’s something I can say.
Vy: Yes it is. -he smiled at the young dragon.- Now, home you go, and call me if you need me.
He had told them earlier that incubation was anything from three to five months, then it was a longer wait for them to hatch. He knew River and Lucas had made a room for the little one, and a place for the egg in their bedroom. It had surprised him a little that Lucas showed no nesting tendencies, but he was also not close to his dragon side, so there might simply be a disconnect there.

Not a Muslim Christian or Jew. If you’d asked me 75 days ago I would have told you about beautiful churches synagogues and mosques I have visited..about the beauty of Jewish culture and philosophy…
Now when I say you can’t commit genocide against children and their religion is irrelevant you call me antisemite.
When I say settler colonialism has no place in the world you call me antisemite.
When I say killing babies in the nicu and starving millions of people, when thousand or more children have had amputations without anaesthesia. Even with excellent anaesthesia people with amputations experience severe phantom limb pain…you call me antisemite.
Well I am now wondering do you call yourself human? Brother? Sister? Mother? Papa? Nana? Opi? Omi?
How many dead babies before you realise I actually thought so highly of your religion and traditions and so poorly of how women were treated in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran…
You’ve destroyed my illusions about democracy, religion and the world. I condemn your actions excusing genocide and ask again…
Where is your humanity?
Have you ever tried to resuscitate a dying baby? Just 1 is heartbreaking enough…and thousands are dead now.

you know, in theory she could achieve cross-spatial travel because that's a thing her people figured out how to do (water portals!). idk how well it'd work on a dimensional scale though.

starting to think im a bard of void instead of being a knowledge class. i have the whole bardic crisis thing (oct 13 2013. sunday) the whole opposite aspect thing before that (Gifted Kid TM where part of my personality was bring smart. is very lightcore) and just how i seem to destroy everything i touch.
my aversion to lying and how terrible i am at it because its on a physical level in my body and i have to script it in advance (yes this is mostly autism) and not liking to keep secrets and being a blabbermouth. destroying void.
destroyed by void. getting FADED with weed. self isolation and most of my time being spent gaming or on the computer/phone. my awful terrible recurring dreams (dreams are void) that i have a fucking tag for. but the horrors have become almost mundane with how repetitive they are in my dreams and thats why i dont call them nightmares

you ever consume media which has that specific feel to it of like. the world is flawed. the characters are People. they do questionable and unhealthy things, but they are people, and they are good. it’s about how they are disheveled with ugly appearances and horrible habits. it’s about how they speak rudely but familiarly. it’s about them welcoming a newcomer, and supporting each other, and how they are people who care for one another. man.
