#they are a good savior and yt person when they’re actually furthering colonialism and the belief that marginalized people can’t take care

something so evil and insensitive with people saying that they want to (and even petitioning to?!) “adopt” palestinian children as they get displaced, harmed, and forcibly separated by their families during all of this like no way that’s your first thought rn

#people especially yt people want to be the first ones to adopt some ‘poor disadvantaged youth’ from a developing country to seem like #they are a good savior and yt person when they’re actually furthering colonialism and the belief that marginalized people can’t take care #of their own children and everyone ‘must’ need saving #adopting palestinians and taking them away from their homes just for them to live in the west that facilitated the destruction and genocide #in their homeland??! #and then nobody wants to adopt the same white children in thr american foster care system😭 #just plain evil #every palestinian child deserves to have a safe normal life with their family friends and community #the news about the 39 premature babies having to die without oxygen is just so upsetting really #🪐 speaking
