I tried to convince a person I know is a liberal today that like, changing the "current regime" in the Whitehouse will not stop what is happening and that this shits not gonna just get better and there no "weathering this crazy phase."

And it basically made me realize that.... We're doomed. These fucking people. They will just pretend like everything is fine until they are being shoved into an incinerator. They really just cannot fathom that things won't just "be ok." It honestly was part of what spawned my entire rant here.... I just.... How? How can people be so god damn delusional? I am actually going insane. I can feel my mental faculties snapping a little bit more every time I interact with them.

There is an epidemic of "someone will do something and save us, we just have to hold out." Across so much of the people I see. On here. On Reddit. IRL. And it need to be broken. Shit is bleak and I'm tired of seeing people hide from it. The world is bleak and it's abandoned Palestine and nothing is more awful and disgusting than that. Nothing is more enraging that people not accepting what is happening. Thinking it'll all be ok. It's fucking not. No one is coming to save them, no one is coming to same us. We have to save ourselves, and maybe, if we hit enough people in the face with that, we won't be alone in doing so. People need a wake up call. People need to top hiding from it.

And Israel will absolutely nuke Gaza on its way out. It's one of many reasons no one will do anything. China isn't going to get itself nuked over it. They aren't stupid. I am not in the "China bad because do nothing" crowd. I get it. And I accept the bleakness. The world leaders have pretty much quietly accepted they will let Palestine die to prevent global nuclear war. My gripe isn't that China isn't doing anything. They do what they can. I am sure of that. It's that damn I could go without seeing shit like their ambassadors going on about how great their trade relations are with Isn'treal and how great partners they are and all that shit. And I can see why people form the opinion that they are just sipping mimosas while all this goes on.

My issue wasn't that China isn't doing anything. I get it. I wouldn't get my countrymen in a war, and probably nuked unless there was no other possible option. Certainly not when Isn'treal would just nuke Gaza on its way out anyway. It would be starting WW3 and not actually save anyone in the process. But damn some of the optics and statements they make really make you feel disheartened, and pissed off. When I see big statements by the ambassador praising their trade relations and how they are such good partners and yada yada, it can get rather infuriating. "Oh, so glad you got those priorities right there buddy. So glad you are such happy trading partners with the genocidal child rapists. Good for you."

Imagine your neighbor is regularly beating their wife and raping their kid in front of the whole neighborhood and then you make a comment at how great their last BBQ was. That's what it feels like and IDC what people say or how they justify it. It's fucking sucks and I will say it fucking sucks.

This would involve an immediate reaction by the west and probably end up being almost as bad as taking physical action in the long run. It would only really hurt China and China isn't going to take actions that hurts itself. It's not in their playbook.

Yeah I feel like, BE's takes on China are pretty shit on the regular but honestly I would be lying if I said I didn't feel like this sometimes. Most leftists on this site have agreed at one point or another that China's international policies have a history of being.... Not the best, but the second you criticize the lack of any real support for Palestine, all of a sudden you get a 10 pages essay about why their strategy of inaction is 10D chess and how they have to keep doing business with Israel and having their politicians literally praise trade deals with them in order to somehow eventually prevent the single last Palestinian child from being murdered.

Like we get it, they can't really do shit because the west, and none of us is ready to die in nuclear hellfire. It's the simple truth, but damn if they don't make it come off like they really just don't give a single shit about stopping it.

As bleak as it is, in my personal opinion, Palestine is doomed. The world will fail to do anything till it's too late for them. The only powers that CAN stop it, have all but blatantly admitted they won't. I know this will piss a lot of people off, and we should all still support them to the last, but I just don't see this genocide being stopped in time.
