Those who protest against Israel's genocide are punished for antisemitism.
But for some strange reason, authorities have never cracked down on antisemitism any other time. Any other time, antisemitism is considered free speech.
It's almost as if they know damn well that protesting against Israel is not antisemitism.

Trumpā€™s exhortation to the oil executives that they were wealthy enough to pour $1bn into his campaign war-chest, at the same time pledging a U-turn on Bidenā€™s efforts to combat the climate crisis, was immediately denounced on Wednesday by environmental groups. ā€œ$1bn for Trump, a devastating climate future for the rest of us,ā€ said Pete Maysmith of the League of Conservation Voters (LCV). Christina Polizzi of Climate Power told the Guardian that Trump was ā€œputting the future of the planet up for saleā€. ā€œHe is in the pocket of big oil ā€“ he gave them $25bn in tax breaks in his first term ā€“ and now itā€™s clear he is willing to do whatever big oil wants in a potential second term.ā€ The former presidentā€™s exchange with fossil fuel giants also engaged the concern of groups monitoring the influence of money in politics. Jordan Libowitz of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics (Crew), a non-partisan government watchdog, said the conversation, as reported by the Post, ā€œcertainly looks a lot like quid pro quoā€. Libowitz said the encounter was ā€œabout as blatant as Iā€™ve ever seen. Politicians often give a nudge and a wink, they donā€™t say raise a billion dollars for me and Iā€™ll get rid of the regulations that you want.ā€ He added that Crewā€™s legal team were looking into whether this rises to the high legal standard of bribery.

AO3 IS IN TROUBLE IF CALIFORNIAN AGE VERIFICATION LAW PASSES
Tumblr media
An upcoming Age verification bill centered in California will be voted on Monday-- And as always,instead of actually protecting kids, it will lead to more online censorship and privacy risks, as it will force websites hosting to verify their users age by sending their ID, your browser history would be linked to it. if you live California, call your reps and tell them to oppose the bill AB3080 as it highly unconstitutional.
They also deem LGBT content harmful to minors, as well as mentions of weapons and tobacco, putting them on the same level as NSFW content.
Since AO3 headquarters reside in California, much like Reddit, Twitter,Discord and Youtube (and others) who knows how bad the effects would be. Instead of just effecting Californians (even then its concerning.) the effects would be US or even worldwide. VPNs wont help.
Please take actions here (a script is included to help you) https://www.defendonlineprivacy.com/ca/action.php
Find your rep here https://findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov/
You can also send faxes using this https://faxzero.com/
If you don't live in California, please talk about this,tag your friends and urge others to take actions, make posts and tweets using the hashtags AB3080 and NoOnAB3080

But remember, it's "antisemitic" to say that the IOF is butchering children...
...i begging yall do not get desensitised to reading these. this is horrific. this is evil. children... were shredded... SHREDDED. do you understand what that means? do you get how evil someone has to be to do that to another person? can you process that sheer malevolence and wickedness it would take to do that??!! to a child?!?!!!
"Al Jazeera's Hani Mahmoud from Rafah, southern Gaza: About seven people, a mother and her children were killed earlier today. Weā€™ve seen video from the hospital where their bodies were taken. The childrenā€™s bodies arrived in plastic bags. They were shredded in the air strike on the home. The only survivor of the attack is the father. ā 
"This pattern of killing entire families is nothing new after nearly seven months of war. Entire families have been obliterated in Israeli air strikes. Just in the past 30 minutes, there was a strike at the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. Weā€™re trying to get more updates on that attack." from Al Jazeera English, 03/May/2024:

Israeli forces storm the Rafah crossing this morning (May 7, 2024)
This is a very serious development.
As of this morning, the Israeli forces have stormed the Rafah crossing, the only way for Gazans to cross in or out of Gaza.
This means that no one, not even the wounded with permits to leave for treatment, are allowed to leave.
On top of that, no aid, food or medical kits, or aid workers will be able to get in either.
Everyone is trapped.
While Israel invades and burns down the small area of Rafah.
With millions crammed in it.
This is what Israel is doing, and it is in continuation of its accelerated genocide for the past 7 months. We find ourselves at this point because Israel was allowed to massacre and starve and maim Palestinians with complete impunity.
All eyes on Gaza!
