Yes for sure! Being able to discuss is so important. I also like how you refuse to name 'the other place' 😂

And I say that as someone who genuinely wants to do things properly!

For me as a HCP/researcher I totally identify with the barriers re being “hard to keep up” with language. When we trained it was all about shifting to person-1st language. Agree shouldn't be 1-size fits all + HCPs should be open to correction, but hard to know where to start, what to tell students.

Been thinking about this a lot (not tagging the sender, for their privacy). Most of us won't have the chance for for grand, capital-R Resistance heroics. But every one of us will have a thousand small choices to make about how to live our lives and where to draw lines. Use them well.

Anything about the 1000s of Palestinian hostages being held illegally in Israeli prisons no? Not even about the children being held? Oh of course, I forgot Palestinian children aren't real children, they're terrorists. Media bias has never been so stark.

Horrendous. An abhorrent stain on whatever is left of humanity.
