Not just thousands of Palestinian children, but tens of thousands of Palestinian youths, men, women, and the elderly. 5% of Gaza's population has been either severely disabled/injured, has gone missing, or has been genocided. From destroying orchards and farms, to the destruction of Gaza Infrastructure to the point where it has collapsed in many spaces -especially their medical complexes, to the complete lack of access to fresh and clean water. Israhell is also still starving Palestinians -is still committing war crimes, and now this? The zionists are continuing their illegal settler-colonial project full steam ahead apparently, and it's beyond horrific.

People on here spreading propaganda that the Iranian government is good...stop.
You are hurting Iranians, Jews, Muslims, Arabs, and more.
The Iranian government does not give a fuck about Palestine. All they are interested in is spreading their power and influence across the Middle East. They even hurled missiles at Al-Aqsa Mosque, which potentially could have destroyed or damaged it if the Iron Dome didn't exist. The only seriously injured victim in Israel was a 7 year old Muslim Bedouin girl. Many Arab countries understand how dangerous the Iranian government is and intercepted some of their missiles.
Iranians have been screaming at the top of their lungs that they don't want war and they are tortured and murdered by their government, but your desire to view the Middle East as a sports match makes you want to root for anyone who is against Israel. The Iranian government literally hosted a Holocaust denial convention in 2006 which included David Duke, one of the former leaders of the KKK. They are not against the Israeli government for the right reasons, but for antisemitic ones. The growing antisemitism in Iran due to their rule drove out thousands of Iranian Jews, many whose only option was to move to Israel.
Please do research before spewing ignorant bullshit that harms everyone. There is no shame in admitting you were misinformed. Peoples' lives are worth more than your bruised ego.

Your address shouldn't determine your access!
I collabed with reporter Shefali Luthra to create a piece about the barriers to abortion for her upcoming book, UNDUE BURDEN.
Luthra’s book lays bare the life-threatening consequences of being denied reproductive healthcare.
an illustration of four figures, looking ahead in a dark / starry sky. One holds a suitcase reading “your address shouldn’t determine your access.” In the righthand side 3 boxes picture the following barriers to seeking reproductive healthcare: an empty gas tank, a wallet with a few spare dollar bills, and a motel sign reading “nearest clinic 109 miles away.”

I loathe having discussions with non-intersectional white feminists on the lack of representation of women in the media we had growing up. It's because when I mention the lack of representation of women of color who were not the token POC or full of stereotypes, they respond with "We're talking gender issues, why are you bringing race into this?."
However, they are not the ones who while growing up felt ugly because they weren't white. They're not the ones who had to witness all the boys favoring white girls. They are not the ones who growing up wanted to chemically lighten their skin just to feel pretty for once. They're not the ones who were either sexualized or infantilized because of their race. They are not the ones who so badly hated themselves and their race.
They have the luxury of being seen as women first, and not race first, then women.

I have a big announcement about the She Series book.....it's getting published!!
Last summer we began talking with the people at Media Labs (an imprint of Macmillan: https://us.macmillan.com/publishers/media-lab-books/) and they are publishing our book. This is thanks to all of you who supported our Kickstarter, you all made this happen and I am so grateful.
We had a meeting with the publicity and marketing team and apparently pre-sales are super important. If they are high, the book will be more widely available.
Right now, Barnes and Noble is running a 25% off on all pre-sales with the code PREORDER25: Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/.../she.../1145097316...
But even more importantly, PLEASE PLEASE spread the word? Share it with any book clubs, parent groups, library groups, teachers, anything you can think of? If you think there is a group or a blog or anyone we should reach out to, please let us know. It's my dream to see this in actual physical stores this Fall but we really have to push to make that happen.
Also, have been a few changes to the book. Due to space, they have removed 20 essays so this book is an even 100 portraits. Also, they changed the title and the cover a little. BUT it's now a lot less expensive and shipping might be easier if you aren't in the US. We will still carry the original in our Etsy.
Here are all the links where it's available

I don't know why cis people worship jk Rowling as some kind of really incredible feminist, the pinnacle of woman's rights and activism. Even outside of her very blatant, rampant and disgusting transphobic she is a very mid/average feminist. I think some people who love her have just never met another woman lol.
I mean lots of terfs aren't great feminists bcs their views about women are regressive and bioessentialist and basically just reinventing 1950s sexism as woke but if we take trans ppl out of the equation entirely jk rowling is not an incredible feminist.

"BREAKING| Israel's national security minister, Itmar Ben Gvir, said he believes that death penalty is the right solution to the prison overcrowding problem that Israel is having.
"I'm glad that the government approved my proposal that will allow the IDF to build 936 (in total 1,600) additional detention sites for security prisoners. The additional construction will allow the prison service to take in more terrorists, and will bring a partial solution to the prison overcrowding crisis", he added."
If you read this without context (without Genocide Ben Gvir's name and Isreal/IOF in the title -we could blur that out) what era would you think this was stated in -would Nazi Germany come to mind? Or maybe a scene from a dystopian novel?

Remember that radfems aren't the first time in internet history the right has stolen a left wing movement through stowing division. Skeptic YouTube had the same thing happen ten years ago.
In the 2000s and early 2010s skeptic/atheist YouTube (and their entire community its not just YouTube) was left wing. Their biggest by far target were evangelicals. And when they did start arguing with feminists (though this was the beginning of the end, as it was used as an in by the right), they were largely talking agaisnt neoliberal capitalist feminism from a leftist perspective.
The atheist vitriol, while often going way too far, was still the rage of a marginalized group. Atheists are unquestionably marginalized in the west, often in the same ways as queer people. The atheist internet, though very very flawed, was the first marginalized community on the internet to make a name for themselves. And I say this as someone whose no longer an atheist despite being raised one.
The skeptic community drifted right wing around 2016, mostly by becoming afraid of other minority groups. And, like all reactionaries, reactionary elements in the group turned anger at capitalist systems into anger at marginalized people.
And just like how people who used to call themselves feminists are now fighting for the most ridged gender rolls imaginable, most of those people who used to call themselves atheists are currently either converted to the worst forms of chrsitantiy, or defending them as western values.
If you want to see the future of people like the lgb alliance, look at Sargon of Akkad, someone who used to be an atheist demsoc, who has now become a reactionary mouthpiece, defending evangelical Christians on his podcast, until the end of time.

IMPORTANT!!!
I’ve only seen like one person talk about this and it’s super important that this gets out there
Multiple punk symbols and sayings have been added to the FBI’s domestic terrorism guide
Things included are
The symbol for anarchy
ACAB and 1312
The three arrows pointing down in a circle
Eat the rich
Those are a few but it also mentions anything anti-fascist and anti capitalist
So if you live in the US please be careful

the funniest thing to me rn is seeing transphobic women going into bathrooms in transphobic states and then being shocked that trans men are in there and actually (gasp) look like men?!?! (shocking i know /s)
like you guys forced people to go to the bathrooms of their “biological sex” but now when they do it’s disconcerting that men look like men. (yes even if that man has a vagina.)
Tumblr media
Transphobes are shocked to realize trans men aren’t all “uwu soft boiz” and HRT does what it’s supposed to. It’s so mind boggling to them that trans people don’t look like their bigoted characatures.
Anyways here are some men that will be forced to use the women’s restroom in states like florida, texas, kansas, etc.

Edit to add: PLEASE don’t tag this post as “transandrophobia” or any similar terms.
