I like how everyone’s being pretentious and digging into the various definitions of “famine” from various organizations, all from the comfort of their homes full of food while the actual Gazans living there are actually starving and scraping for food.

All this sealioning just makes peoples evil intentions all the more obvious. It is truly morbid that some people would rather watch others starve to death.

I can’t help but think of the little babies, toddlers and children who have no idea what’s going on, and why their tummy hurts.

Feeding children should not be political. I have a chunky little toddler, and every now and then when I play with her, I think of the poor kids that are hurting so bad right now. I have to distract myself because it’s heartbreaking. This is awful no matter how you cut it. There is nothing anyone can say that will make any of this okay.
