Us and Them

Us = humanity.

Zie VPRO Tegenlicht 'De kunst van het wegkijken'.

"The road to genocide in 10 easy steps!"

⭐️ Highlights ⭐️

Step 1: classification. "Us versus Them".

Step 3: discrimination.

Step 4: dehumanization. "They" are "animals, vermin, some kind of disease".

Step 6: polarization.

Etc.

Pro tip: always keep in mind, YOU are the victim here.

"They" are attacking us!

"It's just self-defense!"

"We have the right to defend ourselves!"

"Fear is the button you can use to turn off people's conscience."

Mijn (kleine) actie van deze week

(niet gesponsord, geen persoonlijk belang bij)

Elke druppel op de gloeiende plaat is er één.

Meegedaan aan Gaza Aid Fundraiser, via @ehud.neuhaus

Uit zijn post (van begin mei 2025):

"The frustration of not knowing what to do, the feeling of powerlessness and hopelessness, are frequent visitors these days. There is something we can do. We can make a difference, even if just for a moment, for someone. Which, in these conditions, can be a lot.

If 200 items will be sold, about €3200 will go the people who desperately need it. 100% of the profits will go to organisations with direct connections to those on the ground: @coffeesforgaza / @palestineasdiqa / @amsterdamxpalestine."

Ook een kleine actie doen?
