I really despise this whole "self-empathy is when you don't give a shit about anyone other than yourself" thing. How the fuck can you just say shit like this and not feel a little bit like a piece of shit? "My country supporting a genocide? Not my problem. People in my community facing bigotry? Not my problem. An ongoing pandemic of a highly contagious disease that tends to cause permanent damage in those infected? Not my problem." Sure, in the end a lot of people think like this, but it's another thing to be this shameless that you proudly say it out loud.

this feels dystopian. but for the sake of getting this on more people’s feed.

i am begging you to repost this if you cannot donate. on march 10th, the first day of ramadan, israel plans on invading rafah, the last place in gaza strip for palestinians to go. in my linktree you will find multiple fundraisers for different gazawi families in need. please please please, like clockwork every year israel gets extremely violent during ramadan. this year will be especially heinous. two of these families have personally reached out to me. i am unfortunately certain that i have lost all of my own family and friends in gaza, as it has been nothing but radio silence fr on them since early november, they were likely martyred. those two families are the first people still in gaza that i have personally gotten to speak to in MONTHS. it’s so hard to see your home be decimated, even as a palestinian, my tears feel stupid because i am not sitting in the eye of an active genocide. please help me save these families, i cannot bare to fail anyone else.

He's telling the kids: "A rocket is coming cover your ears." Then he tells them to remove their fingers once it's gone. At the end of the video, since the girl is wearing Messi Argentina jersey, he jokes with her saying: "They don't appreciate you anymore messi, they don't respect you anymore" to make her smile.

This is a famous influencer from gaza: Ahmed alhenawi. He came to gaza for his wedding which was a week before the genocide. The little girl here is his sister in law, and the little boy is their cousin who's staying with them since his mother was killed by Israeli bombardment.

This is the same girl who said: I wish I could just get killed right now, because I'm so exhausted. You know what's good though? They postponed examinations!

These people need you, never stop talking about Palestine. Speak up. If they find it in themselves to smile and joke during this and not fall into despair so can you. STOP THE GENOCIDE.

this is the 8 pointed star of bethlehem. it is no snowflake. we call embroidery “tatreez” and this particular symbol has been apart of palestinian art works for centuries. as you celebrated christmas, the birthday of jesus christ, arguably one of if not the most well known man ever, whom was a palestinian jew, know that you did so while his birthplace was being bombed and massacred. مخلصك من بلادي، شعبه لا يغفر الخطيئة على جهلك.

the absolute power these images hold

I'm reading about how Israel, in the immediate aftermath of the 1948 Nakba, deliberately replaced olive trees and other indigenous flora with European plants. This ecological disaster, which is now proudly hailed under the banner of 'making the desert bloom,' was done to 'de-Arabize' the landscape, and to cover up - often with fast-growing European pine trees -the ruins of Palestinian villages that were destroyed by Zionists forces.

And I just need everyone to read this passage from Pappé, because the symbolism of what happened to those European pine trees in the desert speaks for itself:

The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, by Ilan Pappé (2006, p. 227-228.)

WHEN WILL THE WAR BE OVER

The way every heterosexual argentinian man is so deeply in love with messi is hilarious. It's like the ryan reynolds thing, but even more intense

Edit: i feel like i should add that, though not a man nor straight, i have also fallen for the charms of lionel andrés messi cuccittini

This is so cute 😂❤️
