“We are displaced. We were in the north and they told us to get out and go to the humanitarian zone. They said go south of Wadi Gaza. We went south of the Wadi. We didn’t leave in the first displacement. This time we couldn’t stay so we came here,” Ismail Abu Sharakh, an eyewitness to the Wednesday strike, told Drop Site as he pointed to destroyed tents at the site of the attack.He held up a wad of shredded banknotes residents had pooled together to buy a makeshift water line, nothing more than a thin pipe with protruding hoses leading to various tents. Remnants of the Israeli munition lay next to a small crater where it made impact. The surrounding tents were ripped and torn through with shrapnel. Bloodstained mattresses and bits of flesh lay on the ground.

in reply to Peter Link • • •the entire gaza situation is disgusting display of the ruling class' power to genocide yet another group of indigenous people into irrelevance and it's sad to see that nothing has changed about their power since the days of manifest-destiny & cities-of-gold and even more depressing to see the overwhelming majority who are unwilling to rise above the democrat-vs-republican/tory-vs-labour/socdem-vs-afd/renn-vs-rn intentional misdirections that the ruling classes created for them.
i struggle to buy into the m/l & maoist theories that everything will play out eventually in the end, since it carries with it the inherent required acceptance that i will never get to enjoy such a society and that i must endure the asshattery from the overwhelming majority caught up in those intentional misdirections.
the collectivist balm contained in those socialist theories for this social wound is ineffective if you're like me; someone who's barely tolerated by your community due to unconscious neurotypical biases and it makes me wish that those theories could be updated to include a modern day understanding of psychology so that i can find my fold.
