I get when visibel white folks message me to apologize for not speaking up about the genocide in Palestine earlier/at all, but that still leaves a reality in which brown folks and minorities took all the flak for years of doing the right thing. Late is better than never, but there's more you can do.

I genuinely feel like to a lot of people I've just become "one of those guy that yells about a genocide we all see but why are you yelling about it, you can't stop it anyway" while I'd fucking love to be posting about video games and industry news and a non-genocidal eurovision and all that

I understand the math that they're doing doing - it's easier to be "non-political" and then later say "I was against it all along". I get it, they have that luxury because this genocidal Israel with its US infinity money and weapons cheat aren't coming for them and theirs as of yet

So yeah, if you're one of those "sitting quietly on the side", go fucking support some people that are taking the hit on this on your behalf. Buy their game, their book, fund their crowdfunding campaigns when they get fired - if you're going to shut up at least fund resistance.

I don't know, it's infuriating. So many people with nothing at all doing everything they think of, and so many people with everything they could think of doing nothing at all. This isn't just on Palestine, either. This is on trans rights. This is on abortion rights. On immigrants' rights.
