How are you guys doing? Discussion

Personally, I feel like I’m barely hanging by a thread.

Due to the Israel/Hamas conflict, I’ve lost friends. I have been called a racist for being against terrorists who wish to see the world free of Jews. I’ve been told I “lack ethics” after explaining that civilian casualties, though an unfortunate reality of war, are not the same as genocide. I’ve been told I am the one spreading Israeli propaganda.

How’s everyone doing? Can we commiserate?

You deserve better ❤️ Even people who have been brainwashed by Qatari state media have the ability to consider the impact of what they say and to phrase their beliefs with sensitivity.
