Here there are interviews at the pump, people bemoaning how much it costs them to get to work, or how much their groceries cost. Remember the cost of eggs? Remember when that was a thing we talked about daily? Imagine if we actually experienced the hunger, the inflation, the death and indiscriminate destruction that we’re inflicting on Gaza, Iran, and Cuba, here.

There, they talk about if they will have any food, because the invaders are poisoning the land, the air, and the water with burning oil, or herbicides, or both. There they don’t have jobs anymore because the building has been bombed, or the owner has been killed in an airstrike, or because how do you have a job while the bombs are falling all around you. Your worst day here, is their best day there. We loft the bombs, they catch them.
