No clue how some of you try to track the events of major conflicts. It just all seems like a stew of piss and vomit designed to spread disease. I can hardly read the NYT, guardian, wapost, etc. at all, much less read their war coverage. War itself is bad enough but adding in the perspectives of western analysts is just masochistic. I never want to hear a liberal of any kind mention hamas ever again. Im so sick of the measured intellectuals and their gratuitous condemnations of #violence ever again.
I had to cut way, way back in the past week or so on all such media consumption. Even without the infuriating and callous ‘analysis’ of mainstream Western commentators, the raw facts are too painful for me to be in constant contact with them and still function.
Obviously I’m still following things, and still trying to educate myself and others. But I’ve got to limit my exposure to content, especially to video, of constant updates of ongoing events or I’ll just completely hyperfixate and shrivel up. Emotionally, it’s too much.
