In a news media environment that doesn’t want us to know/remember that a genocide is even happening in the first place, archives like this will preserve the record for future generations and ensure that the victims of this slaughter are not erased from history.
What trajedy, i hate to see it, i know its happening, and yet i cant help but carry on with my day to day, compelled to work, so i can keep the house and food and safety of myself. Its an immense guilt. Ive thought about quiting my job and liquidating my stocks, and unbanking - starving the economic war machine of at least my self, and put me on a path that only the ones who commit can follow down - but then i thought about the reality of then being homeless, insuranceless, etc in the us, and its ever growing political instability - and i just cant choose that, and its aweful that i have to make that choice at all, and its a trajedy im not selfless enough to meaningfully help beyond just the invisible “thoughts and prayers”
If in 50 years im asked what i was doing during this time, im sure to dissapoint and be viewed as an enabler of these horrors
I dont like how that makes me feel, and i think its important that im uncomfortable, i hope it spurs change in myself - which then hopefully leads to change in the world
Is it even possible to organise online then irl to get big enough and not be ignored?
I was thinking earlier this year, that it is immoral to pay taxes right now. The only thing that money goes towards is causing strife elsewhere. We have to take out loans to do anything useful or productive domestically.
+1 on that
