Cancel culture

I'm tired
That went to the point that I'm afraid of saying who I'm and where I'm from.
So let me say it this way
I'm girl
I'm from Israel
And I'm tired of this bullshit
I want to say so much things but I just can't because I don't want bring politic topics into artfol

Just want to say that I'm proud of who I am, that the media is absolutely toxic, everywhere.
And that I'm not even tired of cancel culture. I'm disgusted by it. Because it Messing with family, it ruining people life's...
Hell- it literally canceling whole country.

Y'know- I never related to character more then now. Remember that last scene in Spiderman far from home? The one where his identity reviled to the whole world and everyone think now his a killer/lier/ "exposed" ?
Well, let me say ya
It's not just film anymore
Somehow it become reality for a literal country.

I'm living near gaza. That right that the rockets aren't shooting on as anymore. It's right that we have a "truce".
But the real rockets are still shooting.
And it's much worse
Then it ever was

So let me summarize it this way
Both sides have problems, and both sides suffer. You can't support one side and completely ignore the other side suffer.
Because people are blind to what actually going on.
And I'm not saying that anybody is right, both sides wrong., And it's all much more complicated then one stupid instagram post is saying that can "explain everything".

So let me just say it like this-
Be careful about what you sharing, it's life destroying.

Imma just say this: I completely disagree with how Israel has been treating Palestine for a very long time. However, that doesn't mean that I should automatically hate every single Israeli or jewish person or labelling every single one as "settlers". That's as stupid as labeling all Mexicans as corrupt, just because of their goverment, or every Christian as a homophobe, just because a few of them are. This also goes for when talking about Palestinians. And I even saw people that I follow on Insta generalize everyone from Israel as "people who take pride in hurting Palestinians" and tbh that must suck a lot.

Anyways, I hope there's a positive outcome to all of this, but for now please stay strong <33

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. The civilians in a country are completely different from the government. You are innocent and nobody should blame you for what evil leaders are doing just because you happen to live in the same county. Stay strong, I hope everything gets better

I’m so sorry. You are not the choices your country makes. I’m sorry the world is angry at the people of Israel when it isn’t up to them that these bombs are being dropped. Stay strong, and if you ever need to chat my dms are open. Take care, and continue to stand up for yourself. You are not the choices your country makes, and I stand by you when you say that.

Hey! Honestly I can relate to feeling of this post a lot, as a Chinese American, especially with the covid situation, I’ve seen a lot of people accuse the entire Chinese population for all of the shit that the GOVERNMENT has done. It’s really hard to deal with, so I can’t even begin to imagine your situation and having fucking bombs and rockets falling right where you live. That shit takes GUTS to even handle, and on top of that, there’s the media and a bunch of ignorant asses who don’t understand that the GOVERNMENT and the PEOPLE are two separate parties. Cancelling an entire COUNTRY of people is wrong on so many levels, like it’s not the citizens’ faults??? At the end of the day, you’re not the one who started this, and you shouldn’t take the blame for it.

I digress. You’re so strong for holding up through this. And you shouldn’t be scared of saying who you are. Fuck cancel culture and ignorant people

To everyone else reading this, if you’re gonna blame anyone, BLAME THE GOVERNMENT. Don’t blame the people who didn’t do anything to start this.
