privilege is being able to ignore a crisis that is killing other human beings without feeling any guilt or shame

The world is watching, Vimes thought. If something went wrong and this stupid Leshp business started a war, it's men like these who'd be working out exactly how to deal with the winner, whoever it was. Never mind who started it, never mind how it was fought, they'd want to know how to deal with things now. They represented what people called the "international community." And like all uses of the word "community," you were never quite sure what or who it was.

Daily Reminder

I know it hurts when you look at images and videos of dead children and newborn babies

But for them we need to talk about them and remember who killed them

New Palestine Designs

I'm back! Turns out there was a weird glitch and my posts have been pretty much shadowbanned this past week. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed this past week and probably could not see my previous thank yous.

For those who haven't seen my posts yet, my best friend (the best person I have EVER known) is Palestinian, and a lot of his friends and family in Palestine and around the rest of the Levant are being hurt directly and/or financially by the attacks on Gaza, the increasing Israeli raids in the West Bank and the collateral damage in surrounding countries. ALL PROCEEDS from these designs will go to helping his girlfriend afford to join him in America safely and helping his other loved ones weather the violence and financial hardship.

The new designs above (and a bunch more) can be found here. Available on stickers, shirts, pins, prints, etc (click on each to see more product options).

We're hopeful that the ceasefire will mitigate the harm being done to my friend's family going forward. He's already had some loved ones hurt that this money can help so for now I will continue the fundraising (plus we do not feel safe hoping that the ceasefire will last, unfortunately). For now his girlfriend has remained safe and financial planning for her trip here is going okay. Most of his immediate family is okay (extended family and friends not entirely so unfortunately). I will keep updates somewhat vague to protect their privacy. We greatly appreciate all your help!

You don’t care about it because it’s happening far away. You don’t think it can happen here.

It did happen here. The “here” you live in only exists because it happened here. You don’t even have to know what country I’m from and it still applies.

It can and will happen again if we don’t take collective action to stop it.

Click here for a curated list of active relief funds. Do your part, no matter how small. Boycott. Make yourself heard, because Israel and its supporters are doing everything to take Palestinians’ voices away. Amplify their voices in every way you can.

EDIT, BECAUSE IT NEEDS TO BE SAID:

Do not message me with links to a personal relief fund. I am poor and homeless. I cannot financially help you. I will not blindly repost links to fundraisers because I do not have the means or free time to properly vet your links for scams.

I am not ignoring you because I am a “performative liberal”. I am ignoring you because I refuse to let a single penny of aid go to a potential scammer. I am sorry but social media is rife with fake fundraisers and I get about ten DMs a day about this, many with a copy/paste script. I can’t possibly vet them all, and scammers depend on this.

Rest In Pieces, Israel (1948-2024). Politically speaking, you are dead and gone. The world has officially moved on from having any sort of sympathy for the zionist cause or the israeli government. We see you for the genocidal maniacs & psychopathic killers you are, and we're done with you. You are today what the nazis were in the 1930's, and just like Hitler's third reich, your racist murderous government will eventually see its end - perhaps not in the same way, but eventually.

As the late great Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (someone you accused of "anti-semitism" while he was still alive) said, "The arc of the universe is long, but it bends towards justice".

“Why are you always so angry?”

Have you literally seen the world around you or are you just privileged enough to cover your eyes?

You know the embodiment of evil ?

It's those who have no mercy in their hearts and never think twice before hurting innocent people and cause trauma for little kids and kidnap their happiness and their live like it's nothing

And every time this innocent people try to heal and try to make their way through suffering they get back to them and hurt them even more

You might be wondering is there's a human being like this ??

Yes there's in this age

And they are not trying to hide themselves they've proven themselves to the embodiment of evil

They are called Zionists

There is no reason why a man should show his life to the world. The world does not understand things.

Zemo.

My dude. My good bitch.

Why the hell are you walking while chasing Karli, she's a fucking SuperSoldier, she runs ultra fast for god's sake. Stop your villain aesthetic.

Damn right!
