wanted to point out that some of the brands that have been making the rounds as brands to boycott are not even mentioned on the BDS's list of companies to put pressure on. for example, although Starbucks is problematic and it's not wrong to boycott them, people have been exclusively going against Starbucks as if it's the only company that supplies Israel with money and weapons--and it's literally not even on the official BDS list. and when people do share BDS lists, they tend to mention far too many companies. this goes against the BDS movement of targeting only a specific handful at a time.

here are some companies the average consumer can boycott easily, taken directly from the BDS website (refer to the link for the full list):

mcdonalds

google and amazon

sodastream

airbnb/booking/expedia

burger king

papa john's

pizza hut

PUMA

boycott produce from israel

I am so sorry to bother you with this stupid question, but Bisan has asked for a complete stop in economic activity. Can I still donate to help Palestinians or is it better to avoid any transactions for the week ? Thank you so much for what you're doing

hello anon. don't apologise, you're a breath of fresh air after the recent visitors in my inbox. I think a slightly more accurate description of Bisan’s ask is to stop or minimise all economic activity not in direct support of Palestine. Now more than ever, I would encourage people to donate to escape funds for Palestinians, to direct aid organisations like CareforGaza and the PCRF, and to buy e-sims as they’re running low.

Below I’ve compiled a list of resources below but this is definitely just a small sample size of what you can do to help during this strike. This post here is an extremely comprehensive resource that I’d recommend you have a look at.

credible organisations that are doing work on the ground in Palestine:

Care for Gaza:non-profit charity that distributes money, food and other resources directly to families in Gaza.They maintain a regular presence on Twitter and Instagram. You can donate to them via Paypal here.

PCRF / Palestine Children's Relief Fund: non-profit organisation that distributes essential food and resources to families in Gaza. Most recently, they delivered 30 tons of vital medicine, and 82,000 pounds of flour.

Medical Aid For Palestinians: deploys medical teams to treat Palestinians suffering under Israel's malicious bombardments.

Donate e-sims to Palestine: massive post with tutorials and relevant links, with discount codes included in the post and in the replies.

gaza has just been completely cut off from the world.

after increased intensity of israeli aistrikes tonight, the last cable providing communications was destroyed. telecommunications have been completely cut off. they cannot reach one another. they cannot reach paramedics. the red crescent society has completely lost contact with their branch in gaza. nobody inside can reach anyone inside, and especially not outside of gaza to tell us what is going on. this is a complete atrocity.

here's something i'm curious about

tag your city and the names of your transit agency! for example, i'm from SF, MUNI is my friend and cute, BART is my beloathed and a cop shill.

#in the city im living in currently its kinda slow and shitty but its cheap! #and i dont own a car so it is my ally by necessity #although being in cities further east and experiencing their public transit does make me immensely jealous
