If anyone is looking for a keffiyeh, a friend of a friend in Palestine has partnered with an existing factory after their tourism business has been out of work. They finally got a website and a distributor and you can buy them here

the stuff going on at columbia campus rn is genuinely incredible

that “worst Palestinian” blog is gone but there is a lot of liberal, faux-progressive genocide apologia for this site to reckon with. some of the most complicit users seem to be popular and leave their mark on tons of posts and influence the overall cultural here. and this is absolutely just one indicator of how this site is very racist

everything from talking down to Palestinians about striking and boycotting, to flowery essays muddying Israel’s participation in genocide, to that one vile bingo card. all of it makes room for some anonymous freak to make a poll that entails harassing a user who is in an actual open-air concentration camp. and all of that dehumanizes people like him which manufactures consent for their death. real death, not some fucking fandom discourse

with news of sanctions on iran

if you want to know the role of sanctions on US/western adversaries:

this is a repetitive trend--the goal is starvation into submission

im sorry but ill never switch to airpods im not a luddite in any way theres a lot of stupid new tech i can get behind but i just do not see the point of chargeable earbuds. it feels like bootlicking to buy an item that costs way more and takes more effort

I tried searching "sasuke" and "revolutionary girl utena" on Twitter and didn't find any multi-paragraph essays so it appears that I will be stuck using Tumblr as my main social media platform for the forseeable future

mikage is definitely one of the utena characters of all time… i’m a professor i’m a child i’m just here for my paycheck. oops now i’m dead but maybe not. it’s up to interpretation. the whole professor thing used to drive a wedge between me and my peers so this time i’m gonna be just a normal student. i changed my name to “ghost” btw. come to my seminar in the haunted lecture hall i promise i’m so normal. do you have problems? i’m great at solving people’s problems! come see me at the ghost seminar. i’m gay i’m straight i’m going to make my boy best friend my bride. i’m in love with his sister. i cropped his sister out of the photo on my desk. i’m a robot i’m incapable of love i did everything for love. i’m letting the incel out of my evil elevator because i related too hard to how he gets no bitches because he’s a nice guy. i killed a hundred people btw.

11 children killed at a playground that was set up near a refugee camp for displaced families in Rafah. I have no words

Susanne Wiegand, the Chief Executive of the German arms manufacturing Renk Group, recently boasted in the Financial Times that the war in Gaza had helped create a 'new world order' for the defense industry, stimulating previously unimaginable levels of investment. Contrary to a million thinkpieces in the Western press, Germany doesn't give the slightest fuck about atoning for the Holocaust or combating anti-Semitism. It's ruling class does, however, care deeply about combating threats to its lucrative arms industry, which supplies the IDF with the means to cull Palestinians by the thousands.

explaining to my dog that i can't play fetch with her if she doesn't give me the ball but i'm a succession character trying to close a deal

There's a video of this gazan boy crying and talking about how he wants to step on the head of the israeli soldier that would step on his head when he held him captive. That boy is 12. I can't conceive the hatred that israeli soldiers have for these children to treat them with such barbarity. I watched that video and afterwards walked around with my hands clenched thinking about how many other children that are my brothers age and younger are being tortured and how zionists online are just gleefully denying it or laughing at these videos. I fucking hate these people for what they've done the trauma they inflicted only to go back to their lives. And this violence is endorsed by college faculty who r treated like their opinions are deserving of fair treatment while professors that endorse palestinian resistance are treated like they're crazy

REBLOG THIS TO GIVE THE PERSON YOU REBLOGGED THIS FROM A GOLD STAR BECAUSE THEY’VE BEEN STELLAR TODAY AND THEY DESERVE IT ⭐️

its so funny when usamericans of all people are like omg usa is 50 countries in a trench coat when you're from a country like india where the first language of people changes atleast 20 times across state lines.

lets be clear though, the establishment of the united states involved a genocide of diverse cultures which is precisely what has made it so uncannily uniform today. from thousands of indigenous languages you now demand everyone speak one. sometimes you'll accommodate spanish at best.

About liberal Zionists.

First, Zionism is a nationalistic ideology so we have strike one for how they constantly feel "betrayed" by leftism. But also, when I go to the blog of a liberal queer rights, equal rights for all Zionist there are some things I noticed.

Zionist 1 has mostly agreeable positions in their own thoughts and reblogs. They want the sufferings of the Palestinians to end but have mostly shallow ideas on how that could be accomplished because the central violence that the state Israel enacts on the Palestinians is invisible to them except a short "the settlements are bad". They accept that Gaza is suffering too much but stay clear to call it a genocide.

Zionist 1 often reblogs from Zionist 2.

Zionist 2's opinions and reblogs are now way less agreeable. When I say "agreeable" I mean agreeable to a nominal western, white, somewhat leftist audience. Z2 openly has nationalistic views, everything starts on 7.10 except Hamas was always bad. Some denialism on past Israeli atrocities. Calls Jews critical of Israel "self-hating" without pause. When the topic of genocide comes up they say it doesn't exist. Maybe they criticise Netanyahu.

Z1 makes sure that only some of Z2' thoughts and reblogs end up their own blog.

Z2 often reblogs from Z3 who is an open, flag waving, idf idolising, arab hating islamophobe. They don't care about civilian casualties because in their opinion there are no civilians and/or they deserve it for electing Hamas and not fighting against Hamas right this second. The hostages are worshipped, just like every political decision of Israel, current past future. They deny that a genocide is happening but only on the word alone because they wish that everyone in Gaza should die and disappear.

Z2 makes sure that only some of Z3 thoughts and reblogs end up on their own blog.

And this is how supposed liberal or leftist Zionists regurgitate far right fanaticism even if not openly all the time.

You distilled this perfectly, this is exactly why I dislike so many liberal zionists on here. They straight up reblog from people who were genocide deniers and those people reblog from outright fascists. Like yeah if I see you make community with people who spout zionist beliefs then I'm considering you a zionist, even if you deny it.

Also the liberal zionists always talk about how we should "stop dehumanizing Israelis for the actions of their governments" when we very much can see the way Israelis perpetuate the colonization of Palestine. Oh and they also don't think palestine is colonized by Israel.

But yeah this is exactly it thank you anon.
