“It’s really fucked and quite violating — like we can’t even feel safe to go and grieve without someone trying to profit from our vulnerability.”
That’s not a quote from any of the politicians, lobbyists, opinion columnists or social media warriors who have all felt no compunction about laying their hot takes and urgent demands on the pile of bodies, none of whom have their families had a chance to bury or mourn.
They are the words of a young Jewish woman I know, whose family was directly impacted.
