Thanks for posting this and letting us into your continued learning process. It’s very humbling. There’s always more to be learnt even about things that we thought we knew.
I’d also say that the ridiculous and awful pile-on that happened to you for opposing the genocide right at the beginning says a lot more about your true stand than some person online calling you a ‘Zionist’ based on a 2025 magazine article.
Having to even think about this response probably took valuable time away from working to actually end the genocide.

Thanks, Ndirangu - I agree, but I also think it was a valuable exercise and got me thinking about many things and so not *entirely* a distraction….!
Ha! I am glad that you did end up writing it :)
it is a privilege and a duty to change our minds, so true! Love this essay and agreed with so many points.
