Homeschooling Man Babies: Breastfeeding and Starvation in Palestine

gaslighting for a purpose

This post contains sensitive content on genocide. Reader discretion is advised.

There’s a video you might have seen of a starving Palestinian woman crying while feeding her infant dates. If you’ve never had a baby, you might not know it can be detrimental to feed them solids at a young age. The obvious reason she’s doing this is because she has absolutely nothing else to feed the baby. That didn’t stop Ryan here from leaving a useless comment berating her for not breastfeeding the baby.

This lesson is for all the men that simultaneously think that women are weak and that women should be able to withstand their own starvation while feeding an entire other person.

Just in case this isn’t abundantly clear. He didn’t actually send me the message below. I just thought it was important information to force him to see.

How easily they will take credit for things they had no part in.

I know so many of us are struggling financially, but if you have anything to spare to help these women, consider donating to Palestine Children’s Relief Fund. Don’t stop using your voice to further educate others on the reality of Gaza.

The Palestinians are dying. They are being bombed, murdered and starved and we, the United States, paid for their end.

“We are dying slowly. I think it’s even better to die from the bombs, at least we will be martyrs. But now we are dying out of hunger and thirst.” El Jamara, a starving Palestinian mother.

My goal with these stories is to tell them in a way that more people will read it. It’s always nice when the guy does learn, but really I only use him to create something both people who care about Palestine, and people who have shut their eyes to the devastation that is occurring, can read.
