Your eyes might often catch, and perhaps quickly scroll past, the relentless social media campaigns emerging from #Gaza. Some are fundraising for essential medicine. Others are for food, for tents, or simply for safe passage and displacement. I always find myself wondering why these urgent appeals seem so overwhelming and burdensome to some people—people for whom these basic necessities are the very last things they ever have to worry about in the world. To many, these requests appear difficult, perhaps even undeserving of attention. This is often the frustration: you open your phone in the morning and see a follow request from someone in Gaza, pleading for a roof to shelter them from the winter cold, while you are sipping your morning coffee and wondering to yourself, “Why are these 'scammers' following me?” There are many reasons why someone might be a fraud. But I am certain of this: being in a crisis and crying out loudly for help is not a reason to call someone a fraud. It makes you a human being who feels they deserve assistance—who deserves to live a life with dignity, just like the rest of the world
