I probably don't spend all day thinking about my coworker's grandpa because I didn't kill him. However, since the US is using our public money, how could I not care? Those are bombs built in my country, by my government, being dropped in my name. I literally spend every day focused on what my Zionist government is doing. It keeps me up at night.
Maybe this is a limitation of my ability to care. I care more about dead Irianians than I care about people in the US being forced to pay higher gas prices. They're finally feeling a fraction of a fraction of the pain that we have inflicted on the world. Fuck em.
It's a good thing literally no one is asking you to care about people paying higher gas prices lol
You're asking me to care about people who have it too hard to care about the little girls we blew up.
You're going through this effort to explain how it isn't really their fault that they're myopic little treatlerites, they're just smol beans who don't have time or energy to care about anything or anyone but themselves. It's bullshit. They could find the time to care if they wanted to, but they don't because it's hard and yucky. They just want to focus on their own little lives to the exclusion of everything else, and I hate them for it. I'm glad they're suffering at the pump. It's the only way to make them care.
All right then
