    Por que no los dos?

    It costs me nothing to have compassion for those suffering and dying. I can condemn horrors while feeling deep sorrow. Every news article from this region will be tragic for a while.

    Don’t let terrorists crush your humanity.

      So then you say “I condemn those who murdered the babies” not a version of “they had it coming”. Which is what you’re saying if you read this and post “I feel bad for the people who killed them”.

      It’s the opposite of losing humanity when you can condemn murder. That is called accountability. When you excuse the murders that is victim blaming and shaming.

      For someone who is arguing for both and, you have a hard time with nuance. It doesn’t help you see clearly. I would argue that it is your humanity that is lost - numbed. You’re afraid to feel the true pain of this and acknowledge who did it.

        No one fucking said that. No one here is sympathizing with fucking Hamas despite your best efforts to conflate them with the Palestinian victims. The “innocents that are going to be slaughtered because of this” aren’t the people who killed them.
