On a physical level, it can feel like the world is falling apart. We’re approaching one year of genocide by Israel, witnessing evil acts of unimaginable violence against Palestinians on our phones daily, all while being gaslit by American media & government who say it’s not actually happening—and if it is, it’s warranted. The U.S. government sent an addition $8.7 billion weapons package to Israel last week, so they could bomb Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen in the same day. Also, on the very same day, FEMA announced a $9 billion shortfall for Hurricane Helene recovery in the South. 

While the U.S. continues funneling an insane* amount of money to genocide & violence overseas, our own citizens are literally drowning, consuming toxic chemicals (see: the recent biolab fire in Congers, GA), and unable to access groceries, gas, and housing. 

(*I’m using this word very intentionally. What our government is doing is actually insane, and we must recognize it as so—otherwise, we risk losing what’s left of our humanity.)

But what I know for sure is that this—the downfall of Western imperialism—was destined to happen.
