This is what I thought when the us government said they were standing with Israel peoples. The original content is posted on a Chinese social platform, and here it's translated by Google shown in the picture.
Apparently, I don't know what happened in the past between those two countries. And I don't have a plan to know that. That might be an unpopular option or might hurt someone (sorry for my Israel and Palestina friends, I don't mean to), but I think we should think more about the people lives here.
I never knew the history of that location. I never heard the name of hamas. But clearly, this is not a game of guessing who you should support. There is a trend for Chinese that they want to label themselves. During the invasion of Ukraine, people label themselves that they support Ukraine or Russia. The same things applied this time, too. I saw people support Israel and hamas (I don't know if he can represent Palestina, but that's what I see on the Chinese LAN). Today, I was trying to figure out the same question: Who should I support? Which force should I support? But on a second thought, I realized how ridiculous that question is.
I'm always anti-war. It's not me to decide if a war is necessary or good or bad, I don't care, it's not my problem. I concern the normal people. I might lose all hope towards adults, but I hold all hope towards children. That's why I keep donating to UNICEF monthly, even now I'm being unemployed.
People, including me, like seeking good, right, perfect things. But please do notice what we ignored during that process. There might be arguments on whether the war is correct or not. That's a totally fine topic, but don't ignore the individual lives when you keep talking big things, or even small things.
This time, I will not support any country, but the people injured during the attack, especially children. The leaders of both forces bombarded civils while hiding in their safe castles, that's not right. And the people deserve help, no matter the nation.
Also, I noticed some platforms are tightening the rules about those topics. It might help eliminate false information, but how do you know it's false? I don't think that's the right thing to do. If you really want a platform to filter the info you can get, then welcome to China.
