Nah, it’s dumber than that. They don’t want suffering to lose money, they want all the suffering and misery in the world to be incredibly profitable.

The real truth is that most are just actually just anti-sex. “Be fruitful and multiply,” applies to them, maybe to their wife, but definitely not to their daughter.

It’s an oversimplification, but it’s like an older brother and a younger brother sharing a room. They hate each other. They’re always messing with each other’s stuff. The older brother knows better, but he’s angry and tends to be abusive. The younger brother knows he shouldn’t pick a fight, but can’t help himself. They’ve both been fighting so long that each feels justified in hurting the other.

Who’s at fault is the wrong question. Is it the 7 year old? He’s 7. Is it the 12 year old? He’s a kid too, just bigger and stronger. Both lack the maturity and empathy to be in charge and have the run of things. They’ve both proven they’re entirely incapable of being fair or kind to each other.

It’s the parents’ fault for letting it happen. Or in this case, enabling both kids and giving them tips and tricks for how to fight better.

We can’t expects Israel or Palestine to be the adults in the room. They aren’t. They can’t. We can’t expect ourselves to be the adults in the room. We’re watching these kids beat themselves bloody for our amusement.

Until someone puts their foot down and says enough is enough, nothing will change, but the person who says that and lays down their weapons probably gets killed. So this won’t end until one side exterminates the other.

I don’t understand.

If I post the George Carlin clip of how it’s a big club and you’re not in it, we might as well be in some backwoods country church, just drowning in people screaming “Amen!”

If I say that both parties don’t have your interests in mind and will throw you under the bus to keep hoarding wealth, I’m a tankie Russian bot who’s probably a Republican collaborator.

What’s the difference?
