HELPGAZACHILDREN!!!!!
Med @fairuzfan’s blog got terminated by tumblr which is obviously unjust for all the people who rely on them for resources on Palestine, but it now leaves Hussam’s helpgazachildren donation drive without a point of communication, and has deleted all previous information Med had shared about the drive.
Please remember to keep donating to helpgazachildren as Hussam’s hard work getting resources to families in Gaza should not have to be hindered while Med is working on getting their blog back 🤍🇵🇸

Stop calling Israel “secular” ffs. It’s like saying ISIS is “secular” just because they dont speak for all Muslims. Israel is a theocratic-fascist society that explicitly has an official religion, discriminates based on its official religion and privileges people of certain religious backgrounds over others. The impiety of Israelis has no relation to whether its “secular” or not just as the hypocritical impiety of Saudi rulers don’t change that it’s a theocratic society.
“Secular” Israel is part of its false promise of liberation no different from pinkwashing. By calling it secular you are falling for Israeli propaganda

People justify centering Aaron Bushnell’s death in any way they can as if one of—if not the main—reason that this genocide has gone on for too long boils down to the west seeing Arab lives as inherently lesser than that of white lives. That is literally precisely the problem. That is literally why it should be addressed. Criticizing people’s fixation with his self-immolation over the (still ongoing) death of innumerable Palestinians is not being frivolous. This is the root of the issue.

I rly hate the Satanic Panic & the moral panic surrounding violence in video games in the 90s, coz it's now impossible to talk about the social implications of violent video games in a realistic sense.
No, violence in video games does not create serial killers in the way most people imagine it would.
However, it's very important to notice how after 9/11, a lot of violent video games pivoted their content from silly gratuitous cartoon gore to more realistic military shooters set in the Levant from a US American lens. It's also important to notice the connection of these games & their toxic online multi-player voice chats to Gamer Gate in 2014.
It's obviously not as black & white as it was presented in the 80s & 90s, I dont think everyone who played early Call of Duty games is a white supremacist who wants to join the military to kill people in the middle east, but I think it's dangerous to pretend like video games or any media can't have an impact on the way people think about violence.
I think what makes all the difference here is how that violence is portrayed, what the message behind it is, what the motives are behind the people who crafted that message, who the victims of that violence are, how they are portrayed & the greater cultural context that surrounds it.
