Russia-Ukraine thing

Honestly, people making jokes about this- Just stop.


It's not funny. There's people dying, there's people living their lives terrified of being bombed. It may seeem casual to you, but the people who have to actually face it, it's not funny for them. Stop making jokes about this stuff.

Agreed. Thing is, for most people, they can't understand the reality of it. I mean, neither can I despite being there for the start of the Syrian civil war in around 2011. I remember, we were visiting family in Syria. I was with my uncle while my parents were out and we just heard protestors and stuff going on in the streets. At the time, I had no idea what was going on but I eventually put the pieces together.

Even then, I've lived comfortably all my life despite my origins. Being a little shit in the UAE and now being in Portugal at the ripe age of almost 17. Yet, I'll never understand the true pains of people in Gaza because, well, I've never been there. Neither will I understand Syrian pain despite visiting in both 2015 and 2017 because I didn't have to *live* there. And now I won't understand Ukrainian pain because I am here, on my desk, in my room, by myself, with my music on browsing this site.

That's sad. (sorry for the semi-rant lol)
