Holy shit, my friend, put a content warning on posts like this. I don't want to read about maggots eating a kid alive after getting repeatedly hit by explosives.

I disagree. When it comes to Gaza hospitals we should assume the worst and not turn our eyes away because it is uncomfortable.

This is something we are all to a degree responsible for by not burning our respective imperialist states to the ground.

Fighting the urge to throw up because the article brought back vivid memories of things I've seen and experienced isnt, "Oh, you're uncomfortable; agree to disagree!" content. Don't minimize people's lived experience.

My overall point was that the words Gaza + Hospital were warning enough for me.

Yea that's why I initially didn't cw it. And because I wasn't sure what words to use; barbarity of Israel is difficult to put into words.

Bad take, lots of people have trauma here. What's the point of harming innocent people? Plus all it does is drive people with trauma to the fringes, they will leave places they don't consider safe.
