48 million people in Sudan still can not contact their families across the diaspora. They're cut off from the internet, which includes their online banking services as well. Thousands of displaced Sudanese people were also recently turned away as asylum seekers:

This continues to be horrifying. Please keep talking about Sudan.

We're almost at the end of three straight months of genocide, 30k deaths, nearly two million displaced and starving. If you're still calling the situation "nuanced" and "complicated" I'm going to beat you with a shovel.

Sketch Week!
Inspired in spirit by @husborth’s painfully satisfying AU Mustard Gas and Roses, which is a sheer delight to chew on and still surprises me with new details I didn’t notice every time I re-chew through it.

Over 1,000 Bangladesh war heroes' families seek justice against Zia's executions
Over 1,000 Bangladesh war heroes’ families seek justice against Zia’s executions
By Sahidul Hasan Khokon: In 1971, all of them put their lives on the line against a heavily armed Pakistan Army, fought relentlessly and won the war to create the independent nation of Bangladesh. Before joining the war, many of them couldn’t even bid farewell to their families. As they fought the Pakistan Army, their families went through a double trauma — an agonizing wait for the safe return…

I hate that jews are now the exception to every ideal the left has.
"People aren't their government so don't hold them accountable for their governments actions"
Unless you come from the country with a majority jew population (Israel) or are a diaspora jew and are being held accountable for a government which isn't even your own.
"Even if a person who is a minority is a bad person you shouldn't be bigoted towards them based on that minority identity, eg, don't misgender trans folk who are bad people, don't be racist towards a poc whose a bad person"
Unless you are a jew. Then regardless of if you are a zionist or not antisemitism is fine and actually deserved
"You shouldn't tokenize a person of a minority who says x thing isn't bigoted when the majority of that minority says it is, eg some black people who say white people can say the n word, autistic people who support autism speaks, as all opinions matter"
Unless you're a jew as jews who say x isn't antisemitic when the majority of jews say it is now is the authority on all things antisemitic and is the only opinion that matters when in general all opinions matter.

People on here spreading propaganda that the Iranian government is good...stop.
You are hurting Iranians, Jews, Muslims, Arabs, and more.
The Iranian government does not give a fuck about Palestine. All they are interested in is spreading their power and influence across the Middle East. They even hurled missiles at Al-Aqsa Mosque, which potentially could have destroyed or damaged it if the Iron Dome didn't exist. The only seriously injured victim in Israel was a 7 year old Muslim Bedouin girl. Many Arab countries understand how dangerous the Iranian government is and intercepted some of their missiles.
Iranians have been screaming at the top of their lungs that they don't want war and they are tortured and murdered by their government, but your desire to view the Middle East as a sports match makes you want to root for anyone who is against Israel. The Iranian government literally hosted a Holocaust denial convention in 2006 which included David Duke, one of the former leaders of the KKK. They are not against the Israeli government for the right reasons, but for antisemitic ones. The growing antisemitism in Iran due to their rule drove out thousands of Iranian Jews, many whose only option was to move to Israel.
Please do research before spewing ignorant bullshit that harms everyone. There is no shame in admitting you were misinformed. Peoples' lives are worth more than your bruised ego.

Today is November 1st. It’s the 69 anniversary of the beginning of the Algerian war of liberation.
A Palestinian woman refugee in France made a tweet that was absolutely not related to it. She talked about being a refugee and having to see Zionist pieces of shit on Twitter all the time.
French Zionists are in her replies and quote tweet saying “IF YOU WANT TO KNOW REAL SUFFERING THINK ABOUT THE SETTLERS WHO HAD TO LEAVE ALGERIA”. 61 years after the independence they still see themselves as the good guys because they refuse to acknowledge the horrors of colonialism. 61 years later settler colonialism still exist because they refuse to acknowledge the horrors of colonialism.
So you end up with people who think they were the good guys during colonialism despite the fact that they enslaved, killed and torture people just because they were not white. They think that their settlers white supremacists parents had it worst than Palestinians right now.
A decade ago I would have said “they need to be educated they don’t know any better” but now? Fuck them. They don’t acknowledge these horrors because they don’t see us as humans not because they are uneducated. Fuck them.
Palestine will be free no matter what happens just like Algeria gained its liberation and kicked out the settlers after 132 years of colonialism.
“Nobody can stop a people on the path for their destiny”

This was a reply to someone else, but I'm making this its own post because so many people are being so evil right now re: Noah Schnapp.
You can find other, longer explanations with history and all, but all the places I've seen more or less agree with this:
Tumblr media
So you're all calling people to cancel Noah because he's in favor of a Jewish nation in what is today Israel. Which is a perfectly reasonable, decent and educated opinion to have, especially when you, to use a trendy term, "educate yourself" and find out why the state of Israel was created.
11000 dead Palestinians, half of them children
According to Hamas. Don't forget that, ever. They're the current, official government of Gaza, thus they're the ones who give numbers. This means that the real number could be 10, 1 million, anything in between. What I've read is that they probably give more of less accurate total numbers. What they fail to do, however, is distinguish between Hamas militants and civilians, and beteween civilians killed by IDF strikes, civilians killed by failed Hamas or Palestininan Islamic Jihad's rockets (which happens a lot), and Palestinians murdered by Hamas/PIJ (which also happens, a whole damn lot). They also don't specify how many civilians they have prevented or tried to prevent from evacuating or receiving aid.
11k dead people is a horrible number. Even 1 dead person is a horrible number. However, urban warfare in such a densely populated area is its own kind of hell, especially when the other side is fond of using civilians as human shields in every way possible. The fact that the number is 11k and not 50k, 100k, and so on, indicates that the IDF have indeed done a lot to minimize deaths. You don't genocide people by doing roof knocks, opening evacuation lines, dropping guided bombs, putting up an Iron Dome to deal with rockets while avoiding escalation, etc. simply because actual genocide, while a lot worse, is also cheaper, easier and faster than what they're doing. This is important because caling every act of war genocide dilutes the word, and there are actual genocides happening around the world. Also, there is a difference between striking military targets and causing civilian deaths as a side effect (what the IDF is doing) and planning and carrying out a massacre deliberately targeting civilians and inflicting as much pain and humilliation as possible on them. And there is a difference between doing so by breaking a ceasefire (which is what Hamas did), and defending your country because if you don't do that a terrorist group will anhilate you (which is what the IDF is doing).
Back to Noah. So far, these are the things that people have tried to cancel him for:
Traveling to Israel (a completely normal thing)
Having Israeli friends (another completely normal thing)
Condemning Hamas' horrible attack on October 7th (the decent thing to do)
Posting a statement saying he feels unsafe as a Jewish person in the US (which, given the rise of antisemitic acts in the world, including the US, including where he lives and where he studies, is a valid feeling to have)
Signing a letter, along with Shawn Levy, Brett Gelman, Ross Duffer and I think Cara Buono, asking Biden to press for the liberation of every hostage by Hamas. This especially shows the utter ignorance of the cancellers because, as it turns out, caring about every hostage implies a slowdown of IDF's actions (and, at the time, a delay of a ground invasion).
Supporting the existence and preservation of the state of Israel (once again, a completely normal thing). The fact that people are turning against him for these things says to me that the real reason you are all hating Noah is beacuse:
He's Jewish. Like, really really Jewish.
And the fact that this all comes from a place of antisemitism isn't hidden at all: I've seen y'all on here, on Twitter, Reddit, every other social media calling him slurs (such as "cunt"), censoring his name, pretending he's not part of the cast, asking the Duffers/Netflix to fire him, wishing him failure, doxxing him, calling on his classmates to physically assault him, etc. He doesn't need to educate himself: you guys are already teaching him a great lesson on why a Jewish state is necessary. If that's the treament he gets from his own "fans", what can he expect from the world at large?

If the economy NEEDS workers working in degrading, dehumanizing, dangerous jobs where they have very little power, then you need to get a different economy. Any world that relies upon the exploitation and abuse of the workers needs to be burned to the ground and rebuilt. We can make a society where no one has to work a job that’s physically, mentally, spiritually, socially, emotionally, or environmentally unhealthy or unsafe for them. We need to create that society.
