    Is it weird that I feel bad for the Israeli population right now, even though they’re mostly pro genocide Zionists?

      Remember. The population was polled, about half want to kill every Gazan, and like 80-90% are on board with ethnically cleansing Gaza.

      There are some un-brain fucked in the populace, but it’s probably the most morally bankrupt population on the planet. Some empathy is good, but don’t lose sight of the real and larger group of victims.

      Not at all. They are still human.

      There should be safe humanitarian corridors, allowing settlers to leave Palestine for the safety of their home countries.

      Honestly? I don’t feel bad for the genocidal ones, just the few who are opposed to the horrors that are happening; that said, I do still believe in principles and I would never support the harming of civilians even if I detest them. I certainly hope Israelis at least wake up to their government seeing their lives and well-being as a tool; I don’t believe it’ll lead to empathy on their part, but maybe they’ll try to prevent their government from doing something stupid the next time.
