I'd honestly love to know more about what it's like to be an Israeli right now. I'm adamantly pro cease-fire and have always been pro "let people keep their homes" and anti-apartheid, but never anti-Israeli citizen or Palestinian citizen to be fair. In the US we talk a lot about our government being colonizers and how the founding fathers shouldn't be praised and we try to find ways to honor stolen land, albeit, it feels performative since I certainly can't just give up my home if someone's ancestor came back and asked for it. Anyways not to try to point too many fingers, but hopefully just offer a glimpse of my own moral dilemmas that feel impossible, I'm just wondering what the perspective is for you all? Is the segregation discussed? Is the foundation of Israel controversial among Israelis at all?
I'd love to answer but the mods of this community decided it'd be objectively bad to hear a different point of view
Edit: oh, apparently they only removed my comments without banning me. Didn't expect this comment to come through. That's better I guess? But it's still a recipe for an echo chamber. I'll reply in a bit.
