Some Things Should Never Be Political

I can’t make sense of it. Babies in Gaza have died. How do we look at that and somehow decide our lives matter more than theirs? How do we justify it, even to ourselves?

If caring about those babies means someone thinks I support Hamas, then we have a very sick way of thinking. A child’s life isn’t a political chess piece. You can’t politic someone’s life.

At this point, it feels like the world is divided not by politics, but by good and bad. And if we can’t see the difference when it comes to innocent lives, then we’ve already lost something far deeper than any war could take.
