        *Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix*

/Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley) 
<https://substack.com/redirect/79dda3c2-8f0e-45e7-aedb-a897382bdf76?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>/:

<https://substack.com/redirect/79dda3c2-8f0e-45e7-aedb-a897382bdf76?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM> 


Israel is burning children alive 
<https://substack.com/redirect/4613b0fb-995d-4546-bd37-237f676e2188?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>in 
Gaza. And call me an antisemitic Jew-hating Nazi terrorist lover if you 
must, but I happen to believe that’s wrong.

❖

Now that it’s been made clear 
<https://substack.com/redirect/da2ca4c6-5660-4cfe-8afd-2436f079eec5?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>that 
Israel’s goal in Gaza is the complete ethnic cleansing of all 
Palestinians, Israel apologists have been shifting from bleating about 
hostages and Hamas to arguing 
<https://substack.com/redirect/d7cfbd1f-37b5-4436-ab29-1f2a03bb7792?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>that 
ethnic cleansing is actually fine and good. Which makes sense; that’s 
really the only argument they can make at this point.

❖

Never forget that the US Congress gave Netanyahu dozens of standing 
ovations 
<https://substack.com/redirect/9b65c1bb-39a1-456e-8959-138c9fa43870?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>during 
a single speech 
<https://substack.com/redirect/ff97ccc8-ecd6-4b5d-89a5-30aa1d9b9a17?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>while 
he was in the middle of perpetrating history’s first live-streamed 
genocide. This is who they are. It will always be who they are.

❖

Israel has done more to promote hatred toward Jews in the last year and 
a half than Stormfront has in its entire existence. No white supremacist 
propaganda will ever be as effective at spreading hatred against Jews as 
openly mass murdering children under a Star of David flag.

❖

Support for Israel used to be the overwhelmingly dominant opinion in the 
western world. Luckily that’s changing, but the fact that this was the 
case until Israel exposed itself shows you really can’t just go along 
with majority opinion on any issue. You need to think for yourself.

Ignore what the crowd says. Ignore people who scream at you for 
disagreeing with their position. Look at the raw facts as free from your 
own cognitive biases as you are able, and have the courage to stand on 
your own if necessary.

❖

Gaza is such an easy moral issue to get right that there’s no way anyone 
who gets it wrong isn’t a shitty person in other areas of their life as 
well. I feel sorry for anyone who has interpersonal relationships with 
Israel supporters, because they’d suck to be around.

❖

World Food Programme director Cindy McCain is saying 
<https://substack.com/redirect/cf963c4c-4932-4920-9b9d-6f6d5b77fc73?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>that 
she’s seen no evidence of Hamas stealing aid entering Gaza. Israel’s one 
and only argument for continuing to block aid to Gaza is being publicly 
debunked by a member of one of the most pro-Israel families in US politics.

❖

The US has reportedly delivered 
<https://substack.com/redirect/cc348d1b-a56b-4251-92e4-9068200094e4?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>some 
90,000 /*tons*/of weapons to Israel since October 2023.

I mostly focus on the Gaza genocide these days, but sometimes figures 
like this make me zoom out a few clicks and think about how bat shit 
insane our civilization is as a whole. Just think how much good we could 
do in the world if we weren’t pouring resources into evil shit like this.

❖

Murdoch-owned publication The Australian came after me 
<https://substack.com/redirect/607f3c5e-4e45-4bbe-9bed-70977a22d31f?j=eyJ1IjoibHZwcGIifQ.9RIwWbE6EVIB7Jy8lfazxZKfps8R18neRGMKwOiqnRM>the 
other day for tweeting “Two Israeli embassy staff getting shot in 
Washington DC is less newsworthy than tens of thousands of Palestinians 
being killed in Israel’s genocidal land grab. It is less important. It 
deserves less attention. It is not the main story. Israel’s genocide in 
Gaza is the main story.”

They called me a “journalist” in scare quotes, which I guess is supposed 
to be an insult, but coming from the Murdoch press it can only be seen 
as a compliment.

❖

According to the official western narrative, Americans becoming 
violently radicalized by a US-backed genocide is a bigger issue than the 
US-backed genocide.

According to the official narrative, university protests against a 
transparent ethnic cleansing operation are a greater concern than the 
transparent ethnic cleansing operation.

According to the official narrative, western Zionist Jews feeling 
emotionally upset about opposition to a modern-day holocaust is a more 
urgent problem than a modern-day holocaust.

All of our institutions are backwards and evil. Our media. Our politics. 
Our education system. Our manufacturers of mainstream culture. This 
should be clear to everyone by now.

Every historical evil we were taught never to repeat is being repeated 
by our own rulers.

Everything we were taught to fear about the countries that the western 
empire hates is true of the western empire.

Every dark future we were warned about in dystopian fiction is true of 
the dystopia we are living in presently.

We live in a nightmare of a civilization, under an empire that is fueled 
by human blood. The closer you examine it, the uglier it gets.

This cannot be allowed to continue. It must not be allowed to continue.

The empire must fall.
