HEAVY TRIGGER WARNING + lots of text

This is a serious discussion / confession that I will keep on my pinned post to make sure everyone understands my thought process.


Hi.

If you're reading this, then I've finally decided to bring up the discussion towards Israel and Palestine (along with other genocides). This is a heavy subject for me due to the millions of lives lost, which is also the reason why I'm making this.

To start off, I want to say that I am on Palestine's side (🍉) despite not being open about it. Nobody deserves to die like this. I have done my research, and I have tried to shed light on some others outside of social media. Now the main reason as to why I've refused to talk for so long is because the entire situation stresses me out. It makes me uncomfortable and constantly trying to post updates on it isn't something I would like to do. My account was supposed to be a beacon of light, acceptance, and kindness, and being forced to talk about such gruesome and dark topics tarnishes that vision. I've never supported the genocide, because that's practically common sense. Another big reason is because this site mostly consists of a younger audience. The last thing I want to do is show young children the sad reality of our world. That is heartbreaking to me.

My "silence" is not what you take it to be. It's also fear. Fear of something I can't wrap my head around. I'm always one for second chances, but things like this are so unforgivable that all I can do is cower in terror. Things like these are something I can't just laugh off, which is why I haven't. It's hard trying to manage my daily schedule (which is already busy enough) along with constantly looking at any updates for what's happening. I get this looks selfish, but I'm not trying to be. I want to be more helpful, but I'm too terrified to even bring it up more than once.

Not to mention, being a Gamejolt creator is a big responsibility. Talking about such heavy topics puts me under the stress of possibly being smited by the GJ gods.

Though it is essential to note that this is not all about me. This is also a way of simultaneously spreading some awareness while expressing my reasoning.

Overall, I'm sorry. Sorry to everyone who I know, sorry to everyone I don't. I completely understand your reasoning as to why you are mad or upset. I respect your decisions, even if I get blocked in the process. It's only fair.

Thank you for reading. It's likely that I will be off the grid for a little bit. But if you really do need to talk to me or ask about something, you can always contact me through my Discord in my bio.

(I don't remember if yall are striking on Discord or not, there's a lot that's being striked)
