we do not talk enough about how you get hit front and back by being a jew and supporting Palestine. For a recipe that i want to make during Shabbat I have to scroll through a jewish recipe blog and cringe at the I Stand With Israel posts and then go back.
so a bunch of jewish spaces aren't safe anymore or are landmines. then you're forced to go someplace else. then there's tumblr with the people who think Jews=Zionist.
like oh, you're jewish? they immediately think you support the idf or something and praise genocide or something. your family barely survived a genocide that wasn't even like more than three generations ago and its being used as some sort of crutch to israel's moral defense when israel does NOT give a fuck about holocaust survivors at all except for their pr...
like damn bro im just trying to live my life and cook normally. Palestine has my entire heart. but like the pipeline from Palestine advocacy to accidental antisemitism to purposeful antisemitism is so 😭😭. man. i just wanna say guys jewish people aren't your enemies. the goal is to stop genocide not make the nazis proud of you or something
April 28, 2024 - An unintentionally funny video by a zionist propagandist shows off some good organisation and discipline at the UCLA encampment for Palestine.
Allowing a Palestinian blogger to just be terminated out of nowhere sets an extremely dangerous precedent not only for other Palestinian bloggers, but also the pro-Palestine movement in general. Med already dealt with this when their previous blog, helpgazachildren, got spontaneously terminated as well. This should not be normalized behavior on the Tumblr staff’s part. We should always be highlighting and checking deliberate targeting campaigns like this.
To bring this to the staff’s attention, please contact Tumblr Support directly and relay Med’s (@fairuzfan) termination to them, as well as the reasons why it’s not fair conduct. The key is to specify that it’s a terminated account under the category dropdown—otherwise Tumblr won’t get to it as quickly.
Please reblog this so people can report this en masse. The fact that this is twice now that this has happened is insane. Tumblr did not get back to Med when she tried to contact them about helpgazachildren, so I feel as though this needs to be spotlighted for Tumblr to address it in any way.
I must not mock Gen Alpha. Mocking Gen Alpha is the mind killer. Mocking Gen Alpha is the little-death that brings total generational solidarity obliteration. I will engage with Gen Alpha lovingly. I will permit them to be cringe. And when they grow up I will turn my eye to their accomplishments. Where mocking has gone there will be nothing. Only generational solidarity remains
i know that "unalive" is part of larger worrying trend of self censorship but if you really are in a situtation where you have to avoid the words "die" or "kill" the english language already has centuries worth of much better euphemisms. the iconic and perennial "six feet under"? the lovely imagery of "pushing up daisies"? "shuffle off this mortal coil"????? literally anything from the monty python dead parrot bit???? you have so many options. please try to be more creative at least
I think about "seinfeld is a better arthurian adaptation than bbc's merlin bc it has a woman named elaine" every single day of my life. @ whoever commented that can we kiss.
