The fact that there are less protests is absolutely heartbreaking.
But I guess that’s what happens when every social media app tries to suppress information. People eventually start to lose interest.
Don’t stop talking about what is currently happening in Palestine!

Kosa is the most horrifying thing to think about. Sometimes I want to forget about it but I know that won’t stop it from flying through congress and into law.
Teens will not have ways to learn about what’s happening in the world. Marginalized groups will not have the internet spaces that they do. Mental and sexual health will be censored. Activism will be censored. Everything important that you care about is going to be censored. They do this on purpose, especially to the youth, to keep us uninformed and unrepresented.
I don’t have the words to express how much this scares me. This will impact us all regardless of age, but for now I’m still a minor and it’s even scarier. I have friends younger than me who will have to endure it for longer than I do. I’m completely terrified because we are about to be trapped.

honestly the genocicde in Palestine made me realize how little humanity the poeple around me (mainly my bio family) have
how little care they have for anyone outside their bubble
how easy it is for them to just turn off the tv when it gets to sad and pretend nothings happening
then yell at me for trying to talk about it, trying do what i can to help
i knew they sucked in a lot of ways, especially politically but damn i had a little faith that in the face of an actual fucking genocide they'd take the right side

Being a former speech and debate kid is awful cause I know for an absolute fact that any given American representative would, upon being introduced into a mock congress round, get eaten alive by literal teenagers because their political power is bought and paid for and never based on actual knowledge and reasoning.

US: Anti-Trans Legislative Risk Assessment Map: New Adult Map
Erin Reed has published new versions of her transgender risk assessment maps, adding a new map for trans adults.
Tumblr media
Erin points out that as far as young people go most states have polarized into two main camps—either imposing blanket restrictions on trans youth or extending protections to them:
Consequently, the old map has lost much of its granularity, largely reducing to two colors: red and blue. Yet, the situation for transgender adults remains less uniform, as many states targeting youth have not yet extended such legislation to adults. 
The map above depicts the status for young trans people, the map below is for adults. Red colors for high risk, blue colors for low risk and safe states. Black is for the transphobic nightmare that is Flordia.

As we enter farther into late stage capitalism we bare witness to a phenomenon which is quite unlike the revolutionary fall of other economic systems of the past (like feudalism/monarchies in the french rev (as symbolism for the implementation of capitalism as the new global system)). Not completely unlike aristocrats who, historically, were openly and publicly drowning in luxury and lavish. For the uber-wealthy in the west, relatability seems to be key to their personas. They still sit in their metaphorical (or not) castle on the hill, yet they do so by appealing to the working class with pleas of ‘im just like u’ or ‘this pandemic has been hard for all of us’. Seemingly to gain solidarity or even sympathy from the working class. However, with class consciousness rising almost as much as grocery prices, i don’t believe more apology videos in sweatpants and messy buns will save the bourgeoisies’ heads in the next Terror. The more the people see cosplays of working at walmart, the less faint it seems the memory of the women marching on versailles becomes. ‘Let them eat cake’ comes in many forms people!!!

It’s because most news outlets have done a great job of dehumanizing Palestinians that people don’t even bother bating an eye at these types of stories.

Some of you need to realize that being a leftist doesn’t automatically make you a good person, nor does it make you immune to being a bigot. And it most certainly does not give you an excuse to discriminate against other people or mean that your own prejudices must be for the right reasons because you’re a leftist who can do no wrong. I’ve come across plenty of people on here who call themselves radical leftists or communists who preach violence and Nazi ideology. I’ve seen Nazi groups take advantage of that and try to swoop in and recruit those people, and they were probably successful. There are a concerning number of leftists who are only leftists and not conservatives because they want to feel morally superior (and just superior in general) to others. And they are absolutely invested in spreading bigotry and upholding the status quo under the guise of some leftist ideology to keep themselves feeling superior. I.e., if everyone were actually equal, they wouldn’t be able to pretend to support oppressed people, so they don’t actually want equality at all.

You know a scene I think about a lot from One Piece? The scene on Sabody Island where the leader of the murderous crew of pirates, Captain Kid can't help but point out the hypocrisy of the World Nobels who are more vile in nature than any pirate but have no idea the world is the way it is because they're the ones that run it and enforce the laws.

The child, the toddler basically that was trapped in the car with her murdered family by Israeli terrorists was murdered. They murdered this little girl, the phone call was for nothing because this baby was terrified up until her last moments on this earth. I’m not a religious person, but I truly hope to whichever all mighty is listening that we see Israel, the IDF/IOF and the Zionists burn ten fold.
