#it’s simply disheartening to see people I know and follow post about palestine and then in the same breath yell about what they bought

You bought pleasing products as well, and we have known for years that the people around Harry aren't good people. You're a hypocrite
I have bought pleasing products in the past, you’re correct and we have known for years that the people harry surrounds himself with are horrible at best, however harry has still ALWAYS spoken about his stance on global issues and his silence now is deafening. You can call me a hypocrite all you want but the point I was making is, how can anyone now, with the knowledge that jeff and irving signed that stupid letter and jeff’s sister has a whole highlight about the war in israel, AND with harry’s cricket mentality while still pedaling a new pleasing collection at us, in good conscious, decide that’s where you’re going to spend your money ??? I don’t know about you but I don’t have money like that to throw around let alone to businesses that don’t align with my morals. The fact of the matter is the girlies are shoved so far up harry’s asshole sometimes they don’t see an issue with continuing to support a company like that, who has a mission statement on their website portraying the exact opposite ! promote your new collection, have your mom post about your haircut, I do not care but it is laughable that they’re pretending at best not to see what’s going on and not caring at worst ! I’m always of the belief celebrities should say less about politics but harry has already put himself in the position of being someone that speaks out for what is right, and it is OKAY for me to expect more from him, let alone his company. Pleasing will not be receiving a single dollar more from me unless they make a serious change, and even then the knowledge that they have seen what is being asked of them and every day are deciding to stay silent, is extremely disheartening and will take me a long time to ever come back from, if at all. The only people upset about what I said are probably guilty of doing the exact thing that they have enough knowledge and chronically online hours to know what was going on, and decided it didn’t matter enough to them to care otherwise. If the shoe fits 🤷🏻‍♀️ It is not hard to boycott a company let alone one that is charging $85 for a beach bag and $135 for a perfume, that will not cause you a single inconvenience if you do not own, I need y’all to be fucking for real

When it comes to information about Palestine, one of the best things I advise for you to do is following Palestinians. Listen to their words and share their art, stories, and information they want to spread to the world.
I know I talked about this before, but Tumblr seems so bare with news on Palestine compared to Twitter. I understand Twitter is more popular of a social media with active users constantly while Tumblr blogs can be deactivated or simply run on a queue with no one actually posting in some time, but it still is disheartening to go from one social platform where I see nonstop news about Palestine and what I can do to help Palestinians - to go on here and see it sprinkled. Where the most I see it are from Palestinian blogs I follow.
If Tumblr is your main social media outlet, chances are you don't fully know the gravity that is going on, especially if you just use your dashboard. My timeline itself has only shown a fragment of the horror that is going on in Palestine. I have seen the most heart breaking, horrific, beyond words of pain videos of Palestinians on Twitter directly from Palestinians risking their lives to share information so the world can see them.
But I hardly see anyone talk about it here.
So with that said: My advice to people is to seek out Palestinian blogs not only just on here but on Twitter. Im not saying to make a Twitter account but please at least look at their accounts and read their tweets.
Some Palestinian Twitter accounts I follow and I suggest you all check out:
Bisan , Ahmed , Shaimaa , Plestia , Hind , Ghassan , MoTaz , Bayan , Muhammad
