I'm in the middle east, and it fucking sucks.
We have like 2 genocides going on right now, and the rest are autocratic dictatorships that persecute/massacre their people. Especially minorities. I don't like the democrats, but republicans are even worse. They're going to turn Jordan, palestine, lebanon and syria into rubble. Fucking hell. And they're going to fund the Sauds/gulf monarchies more.
Life's unfair, there's not much we can do about it here. But you can; please, protest all you can.
2 genocides in the middle east? I know what the first one probably is, but what's the second? Please enlighten me.
Signed: an ignorant european.
The genocide in Sudan. iirc the US is the only one yet to have declare it as such, but looking it up it's clear that the horrors and massacres that happen there is 100% a genocide.
France, Israel and the UAE are funding the RSF, who are barbaric, genocidal scum. The group came out of the janjaweed,who already have committed the darfur genocide two decades ago.
The RSF rape, ransom, murder and torture civilians and commit ethnic cleansing. They are less than scum. To put into perspective how bad they are, 100 women committed mass suicide, because the RSF was coming to their village and they knew they would be raped.
What a great day to be alive... Well I am sorry that us europeans are either apatethic or impotent...
