While the numbers may not be the latest for any current conflicts, I want to address not just your moral consistency, but the integrity of your grief.
If your grief activates for one tragedy but remains silent on dozens more with equal or greater human cost, then your empathy might be more performative than principled.
The above list of post WW2 conflicts lays bare the suffering across decades and continents, and it's a stark mirror to selective outrage.
If your grief activates for one conflict-especially one that is politically fashionable or emotionally charged in your circles-but you were silent on the Congo, Sudan, Yemen, or the Sahel, then yes, it raises questions about consistency, sincerity, and moral clarity.
This is not a dismissal of grief for Palestine. It's a challenge to widen your lens, and ask why some deaths stir protest while others pass in silence. This is not just a critique of your hypocrisy; it's a call for greater integrity.
Integrity in grief means refusing to let politics dictate compassion. It means seeing every life as sacred, not just the ones our circles tell us to mourn.
