so I guess if you describe a decades-long international crisis involving multiple world powers as "complex" then somebody on tumblr is gonna be like "umm where is the complexity here?" to try and gotcha you?

and then you realize that their idea of simplicity is based solely on declaring who is morally at fault, and having decided that and posting about it online they're relieved the burden of ever conceptualizing an actual outcome to everything going on, because their activism begins and ends with identifying the "good guys" versus "bad guys" and not talking about what the fuck is supposed to happen next, and definitely not addressing any of the actual core political problems or history therein that have enabled this genocide

#this happened because i posted articles on houthi human rights abuses and cautioned against maybe not uncritically declaring support of them #is it really that difficult to a) agree that this is a genocide and the israeli government is to blame #and b) the people directly opposing them are actively engaged in their own human rights violations and should not be championed on #with the blind simplicity of cheering for a sports team? can we not do that? #this is what i mean by complexity ffs it's not difficult to understand #israel / palestine
