I’m tired of banging my head against a wall; it seems that no matter how hard I try to explain the illegitimacy of the "isn't real" state, people just engage in mental gymnastics to find justifications that fit their confirmation bias.

I feel like I’m losing my mind more and more for defending a basic shred of humanity: that Palestine has the right to exist and that territory belongs to them.

Yet, due to external factors, a large portion of the population in my country insists on defending genocide while feigning a virtue that never existed—all while putting on airs of erudition. As if I were the stupid one for simply being human.

How do you know that you aren’t doing the same thing?

Thank you for saying this. Many of us feel this way in the tech industry. That our C-level execs and VC industry are hyper Zionist is one of the defining problems of our times. Their control over old media, internet media and AI is terrifying. Thankfully there are a lot more of us than there are of them.
