i cannot emphasize enough how important it is to feel sick and disgusted and angry and sad whenever you see what is happening to Palestinians. it means you are not desensitized to the atrocities and violence Israel is doing to them, and that is absolutely crucial. they are not numbers, they are people who are as deserving of happiness as anyone else. i know that for some people, their first instinct is to look away but Palestine deserves to have their voices heard even if what they’re telling you is uncomfortable.
