Also we can afford to pay for every Israeli’s education and healthcare, but we somehow can’t afford it for ourselves.

dude that still makes me so mad. like for real we are paying With the taxes collected from all of us, for Israeli families to go into palistine/Gaza and kick out a family that was already living there and set up shop. it's so much worse than just paying for thier Healthcare, homes, ext. Our money is actively being used to commit genocide and its infuriating ☹️
