anyone who has a platform and an audience but is choosing not to advocate for Palestinians is guilty. anyone who's turning a blind eye to the genocide is guilty. anyone who thinks what's happening in Palestine and Yemen is not their concern and does not affect them is guilty. this has far surpassed the stage where it was okay for influential people to not speak up. because frankly, it never was. whoever is choosing to be silent about what's happening is guilty.
I’ve been hearing a lot of activists saying that our donations aren’t making a difference right now because aid isn’t being let into Palestine. What can you do instead? Consider buying an e-sim for someone in Palestine! Click on the link below and follow the steps!
I just heard that an 8 week ceasefire is being negotiated but please remember that we have to keep fighting for Palestinian liberation during the ceasefire (if it happens)
Have you checked out Jasmine Sherman and Brittany Jones? They’re both third parties and honestly I checked some of their policies out and it looks very promising. Between them and Claudia De La Cruz I feel hopeful about possible candidates. I just hope one of them wins and are actually able to do what they say they want. Because I know the senate and the house would push them back as hard as possible.
western liberals will do anything but actually amplify the voices they claim to care about. like all i hear from some of them is ‘in palestine, there are no gay rights !! in palestine, you would get killed for not being muslim!!!!!!’
bro idk how to break it to you but in palestine you would get killed just for existing as a palestinian. all these other parts of your identity are irrelevant to the murderers. your performative activism is embarrassing .. (sincerely a gay, transgender, christian palestinian)
THIS!!!!!!!!!! most of us feel like we aren't doing enough because we can't physically stop a genocide but speaking helps!! pressuring helps!! boycotting helps and protesting helps!! please don't give up on Palestinians not when the entire world has turned their backs on them
Bisan's recent post. I think it's important for you to read it. Tonight 03.12.23, journalists in gaza share their last messages. There are no words to describe the horrors unfolding in gaza right now.
I no longer have any hope of survival like I had at the beginning of this genocide, and I am certain that I will die in the next few weeks or maybe days. I have been sick with severe viral infection for days and cannot move from the mattress!
I suffer from nightmares that are so closely resemble reality that I no longer differentiate between reality and dream.
I live in a world other than the one I claimed to be building! I am a community activist who lived on the fantasy that the world was free and just, and I sought to bring rights not only to my people, but to many men and women in third world countries!
I was shocked that I was not from the third world! Indeed, we are the most humane and moral! Yes, because the world approves, supports, and finances the genocide we are being subjected to, legislates it, and gives reasons for for 58 days! While we are a people who have been living on occupied land for 75 years and are still searching for our rights and communicating our voice to the world!
My message to the world: You are not innocent of what is happening to us, you as governments or peoples that support Israel’s annihilation of my people. We will not forgive you, we will not forgive you, humanity will not forgive you, we will not forget, even if we die, the history will never forget .
A Message to friends: Thank you and the supporters around the world. You have been compassionate and very strong. We ask you not to lose hope, even if the world seems completely unfair and your efforts have not yet resulted in a ceasefire.
