Save The Planet, Or Something


Haec declamatio in tres partes dividitur.



  I:

"Will you surrender now?"
 
"No! We're not all dead yet! Keep bombing!
 
("Sheesh, what is it with these people?")
 
["Look everybody! TheJews(R) are committing GENOCIDE!"]
 
"So have you have enough yet?"
 
"No! We'll resist until you kill us all, you genocidal Zionists!"
 
So who will win this game of Levantine chicken? Will everybody in Gaza die before Israel runs out of ammo? (Everybody except the terrorists hiding in the tunnels, anyway.)
 
Here's the thing: the ruling clique in the Zionist Entity have no shame whatsoever. And they're bigger, stronger, and more heavily armed. And when y'all say "Genocide!" they say "Maybe so. So what?"
 
If the object is to get everybody in Gaza who can't fit into the tunnels blown to smithereens and flattened by the rubble then Hamas' strategy is sound.

The Bibi Bunch goes "Oh well, why not? Let's give the place to Trump when there's nothing left to destroy."
 
That's the victim mentality for you: the Palestinians have been getting themselves killed by TheJews(R) for so many generations that's all they know how to do. 
 
"See how bravely we die!"

Hamas has decided it's better to be martyred than to surrender to Zionism. Which is fine by Israel, of course. The problem is that Hamas is taking everybody in Gaza down with them.

Genocide is when they load you on the trains by force and lock you in to you get to the death camps. What Hamas is doing is collective suicide, kind of like Jonestown except with noisy pyrotechnics.

If you're okay with that, if you don't care how many people in Gaza get destroyed, then keep supporting the "freedom fighters" silly "bravery." Whatever. As I see it every day that war continues is another baby step closer to human extinction: from that perspective it really doesn't matter where the dying is going on, or why. If Hamas has decided that the Arabs of Gaza must go extinct, from a misanthropic standpoint I can only applaud them. Look! See how bravely they get their people wiped out.

But you see I had assumed that y'all valued human life more than real estate disputes or Semite tribal feuds. That is I thought y'all were holding campus camp-outs because you are against all the killing. But that can't be it: if you were against those people getting killed you'd encourage Hamas to let their people go, to do its part to preserve human life.

Instead y'all anti-Zionists, like your resistance heroes, think it's fine and dandy if gobs of Arabs get killed or worse as long as it TheJews(R) who are doing it. Mass death by Israel beats surrendering your principles, right? You hate Israel more than you care about the Palestinians. You and Hamas. You'd rather Israel prove that Zionism is just like Nazism than you would see anybody left alive in the rubble. It's only really genocide if they all get killed, or as close to all of them as Israel and Hamas can manage between them.

So you're really just as misanthropic as I am, you just don't admit it to yourselves. You cheer on Hamas, whose venomous hatred of Israel is reducing the world's population by however many can be managed before Israel runs out of ammo. That's quite commendable when you get down to it, in a "save the planet: kill yourself" kind of way. It would be better if y'all "genocide" enablers were doing some of the dying yourselves, or maybe making dead if your stomachs are strong enough, but it's part of human nature to sacrifice the people you claim to care about instead of yourselves. It might be better for the Palestinians in Gaza if you didn't swear you care about them so much, without global mobs of cheerleaders Hamas might find something else to do, but why should I quibble? You support mass death. You support Israel and Hamas in making it happen. Every day is a lovely day when Arabs are dying, isn't it?
To be clear: if you think of the inhabitants of Gaza as fellow human beings, and if you value their human lives as much as you say you do, you would rather Hamas surrender before they all get killed. That is you would love these living humans more than you hate Israel. I know that's a hard thing to do, to consider The Oppressed to be people like yourselves, but it can be done if you try hard enough.

Try this: forget for a minute that it's Palestinians vs. Israel, resistance heroes vs. "genocidal" Jews, and imagine that it's some other two parties playing at war. The Netherlands and Belgium maybe, or Turkey and Greece. Neither party is the embodiment of evil: TheJews(R) are not involved. Would you feel the same? Would you applaud Greece for holding out until the last Hellene? Would you rather see Antwerp in ruins that let the Dutch score a win?

Fortunately your "anti-Zionism" hides the extent of your hatred for humanity: when TheJews(R) are busy killing you can cuss them out. No matter what you say the IDF will keep gittin' 'er dun, so that won't work, and you categorically refuse to let the Oppressed surrender before they're all killed so that's not working either. You really don't want the killing to stop. You want Israel to keep going and going and going. Because that justifies your hated of them: you get to say "Look! They're just like Nazis!"

If the war stopped while there were a few hundred thousand Palestinians in Gaza to crawl out from the ruins and dust themselves off that would mean the genocide is incomplete, and that just won't do. The more Arabs die the more evil Israel is, or something. You want Israel to be Satan incarnate, "the destroyer of worlds." Then you can hate TheJews(R) with a clear conscience.


II:

Me, I really don't care that much: dead people are dead people, Arabs will do. In Sudan it seems the Sudanese who say they're black are the flat-out victims of those who say they're Arabs, the RSF is out to "cleanse" the place, but it's not such a spectacle: there are no Jews there, only Africans. And they all look black to us, whatever their religion. It's pretty much the same thing though, at heart: in Gaza it's the Arabs who are doing the dying, in Sudan it's the Arabs who are doing the killing. Either way a lot of people are becoming unalive: their troubles are over, and they're not making trouble, that's all that counts.
It would be even better if there was some hellacious mass dying going on that none of us here knows anything about, then we wouldn't have to get ourselves all worked up about it. It's not like getting upset and waving signs will accomplish anything, killers gotta kill, so why can't they they just do it quietly?

I bet the Chinese are still genociding the Muslims in Xinjiang, but it we don't see it on TV or in Google News, so it's all to the good. Fewer people means fewer sentients suffering and less ecological damage. It's too bad they have to go in such a violent fashion, people could just drink the Flavor Aid themselves, but that would take too much common sense for your average human to do it. They'd rather be shelled for months on end, or spend months on end eating rice gruel while learning "Communism," than they would just get it over with.

"Life is pain." Ask Schopenhauer, or Buddha.


That's the problem, you see, too many people are gluttons for punishment. But there's plenty of popcorn, and we're not going to do anything substantial to fix our own society, so we'll watch as long as it's shown to us. It would be better if those of us who are superfluous, who are not nursing babies or curing cancer, would just lay down and die: five billion fewer humans would do the world a lot of good. But we'd rather by the T-shirt than lift a finger, so whatever. Life goes on. And we suffer.


III:

As I keep saying, I plan to kill myself before very long anyway, unless my life suddenly improves beyond my imagining. Until then I've got to wave the banner of the Church of Euthanasia, which might still exist or at least the website does. I do this without permission and I'm doing it for free, but somebody has to, and nobody does it here with my peculiar flair. This amuses me, in fact I crack me up, so it's worth doing. As far as I'm concerned, and I'm David Fucking Perry.

Like I've hinted a few times I could be persuaded to shut the FUCK up, if I had something better to do, but that would mean somebody would have to lift a finger for another human being, who is after all only me. And who am I? For six months now I've been posting to The World that I'm about done, in unless somebody helps, but the only thing I get is requests for money.

Well, okay, I got one invitation to an event that I'm just not physically up to doing, but I appreciate the thought: I'm a despicable Zionist, if you squint hard enough, but for one person at least that doesn't rule me out. Hooray hooray. But the only things we can do together is argue and commiserate, while the whole time I'm thinking "I'm sorry it's you but I'm glad it isn't me." (And no I don't take it personally: in some ways "despicable Zionist" is a step up, isn't it Loopy?)

So what else is there? Instead of servicing my credit card debt I've been doing what my Daddy taught me, just on principle, now that I get it and now that I can, but I can't keep on like that if I intend to live a while longer. I've got more credit than income, and if I max out my cards that's it for me.

As I keep saying I'm about done in, I can't imagine my life not going further downhill even faster, not even at the maximum dose of two antidepressants. Do I have to make a list of individuals to ask for ideas?

But anyway. "Save the planet, kill yourself!" Or get some evil Zionists to do it for you, I suppose. It's all the same to me. While I sit here alone with a bad back and a broken brain, being effluently fluent in some version of verbiage.
You could pretend I'm Palestinian. If that would help. I don't know why you would, you have the disadvantage of being as human as I am without the advantage that comes from being me. But whatever. I'm running out of ideas and the fumes are almost gone.

If I could do any better than this I'd be doing it, if I could think of anything I have the energy for.

As the yard dogs say when they see me walking by: HEY! HEY! HEY HEY!
