Hey! The names Lou! I’m 23! I hope to find and share some good stuff! Also, sometimes I write poetry | he/they/she | header/pfp is Ryoko Kui’s Dungeon Meshi
every excuse i see is nonsensical im not saying u have to listen to rap but the excuses are so dumb bc they don’t apply at all im not gonna force u to listen to xyz artist but stop with the “i like music that has x” bc rap just like any genre is diverse and has exactly what you claim you like, you aren’t understanding this bc you subconsciously view black people and black music as one note, that is a subconscious racial bias, that doesn’t make u evil or a nazi it just means you have to unlearn viewing black art as a monolith, if you can understand that lady gaga or adele and idk selena gomez and demi lovato both mainly make pop but have extremely varying qualities of work and discography’s why does that not compute to you when it comes to rap
in hindsight, it makes a lot of sense that macklemore would happily release a free palestine song that is AS balls-out anticapitalist and antiimperialist as it is, considering in 2011 he won a grammy with a song all about being poor and spending your money wisely while still being cool and looking fresh, bemoaning blind consumption.
it was a small domino to start with, sure, but the trail is there.
We are witnessing the final stages of genocide taking place in Rafah.
We call upon people of conscience worldwide to conduct a global strike in solidarity with the people of Gaza & demand an immediate ceasefire.
Here is what to do:
On Friday 10th May:
1. Do not work.
2. Do not purchase any goods or services.
3. Do not make any transactions on your debit/credit cards
Spread the message —-
• Record your own video/photo or draft a message announcing that you will join
• Share your announcement on social media inc X/Instagram/FB/LinkedIn/Tik Tok and any other platform.
This strike aims to deliver a shock to the global economy and compel political leaders to take all measures to fulfil their moral, political and legal obligations to prevent genocide.
This initiative has no political leader or central organising body. It will succeed through each individual hearing this message, and taking action to the best of your ability.
The power of the people is greater than the people in power. Join the strike and Rise for Rafah.
I don't know what to say, the Palestinians were celebrating, they were celebrating knowing that they no longer had to hear any bombs, that they wouldn't need to see the dead bodies of their relatives and that they would finally have some peace after seven months of death and destruction. So much joy and elation, only for it to be torn to pieces by the settler colony state and its refusal to end the war. It is heartbreaking, soul-crushing. Tears and anger can't describe the devastation as the children will continue to suffer; it can only be described as malevolent. But the Palestinians are a people of hope, they've always had it, and that hope will never be extinguished.
Zionism is an absolute plague, and I pray every day that this poisonous and genocidal ideology is destroyed. May the fires of Hell swallow all of those who enabled and supported this genocide.
"Most of Sudan is only one step away from a full blown famine. In a lot of areas the only thing stopping people starving is the presence of community kitchens. This is why we setup 3 kitchens in Khartoum State and are in the process of setting up a 4th. But there has been a massive drop off in donations after Ramadan. Please help with what you can.
