I have so much to say about the situation in Israel, but I feel suffocated from having argued about everything with everyone off and online since October the 7th. No one wants to listen to me and the few that do can not digest what I"m saying. I have a meltdown every day and I am barely functioning. Everyone else are in insecure atavistic or similar mode. I am so angry and I haven't felt so alone in my life. complex thoughts or feelings are definitely NOT WELCOME HERE right now

Sorry to hear you're struggling at the moment. Hope things improve for you soon. Not in a great place mentally myself at the moment; it sucks for sure.

1. Unless you're there, you're not a party to the conflict, except on the plane of psychological operations.
2. If your real-life functioning is being disrupted by the psychological operations, then you need to take decisive steps to reduce their inputs.
3. Whatever side or sides you are on, you can be effective only if you are emotionally stable.
4. Don't be distracted by social media entaglements. Focus on making a more significant contribution like publishing an essay, creating an art piece, or joining the military wing of your point of view.
Thank you @anisotropus
