shein has taken down the selling of the israeli flag, stopped its collaborations with the country's influencers and also cancelled free delivery services to the country. do you know how fucking insidious you have to be for SHEIN to cut ties with you??? SHEIN???!!!
it makes me physically ill. a Palestinian on twitter's last post was about burying their six-year-old cousin without his head. a Palestinian boy on youtube dreamt of 100k subscribers on his gaming channel. and yesterday he reached 500k, but he has been killed in the bombing of the gaza strip. the class of 2023-24 in Palestine has ended early because there are not enough students left alive. literal children who were the teachers, artists, doctors, scientists, scholars, writers, engineers of tomorrow.
when is it enough? statistics released by Palestinian officials about the numbers of martyred isn't enough. photographs and videos of fathers scurrying to piece together their children by gathering their body parts isn't enough. presscons surrounded by dead bodies beside a bombed hospital isn't enough.
yet, somehow, the narrative they are pushing is conflict between two faiths. it is absolutely not. this is no religious conflict. this is colonization, occupation, genocide. it's systematic oppression of Palestine and its people.
the word peace has never angered me as much as it has now. and it should anger you too. there can be no peace under violent oppression. there can be no peace after 75 years of ethnic cleansing. there can be no peace in occupied Palestine.
peace is the product of white supremacy, they prod and kill anyone other than them but when retaliation occurs, it is suddenly rabid savages, unjust savages...
I don't think we can change the system by continuing to operate inside it
As people pointed out in the comments, this tag has been banned for months now, and it's possible it was banned because it had too many pornbots (but tags for like New York don't get banned because Tumblr is America-Centric sadly).
seriously, what the fuck is this about?
they've just outright banned the tag for an indian state that's home to over 34 million people
scalding hot take here but maybe bombing and massacring more civilians isn't going to get rid of the resistant fighters radicalised by watching civilians and loved ones be bombed and massacred
All the drama and exposing aside Hbomberguy's video on plagerism really is insightful on the mentalities of people who plagerize
In school they always emphasized how plagerism is bad because you're stealing words and ideas and if you do it we will give you a severe punishment.
But Hbomberguy really opened my eyes to the disrespectful aspect of plagerism. That when someone plagerizes someone else's work they're basically saying "you are so insignificant I can get away with this" and that these ppl will not hesitate to spit in the face of those they stole from.
Plagerism isn't like stealing food. The risk of expulsion and or losing your integrity is far greater than the risk of failing a class or missing a deadline. It is always better to not to commit plagiarism.

Nevermind, I thought the argument was over but it isn't.
The person I am arguing with just said that they will not be responding to me anymore because they decided that they 'don't have to justify anything anymore'; I guess I'll count this as a win?
I do have to advise everyone who sees this post to NOT go harass them, perhaps they are misguided, but I don't think they are a bad person, they're just doing what they think is right, even if it isn't; I doubt I have enough reach to really worry about anyone harassing them, but the world likes to throw a curveball sometimes.
If I ever get into a Tumblr argument again I'll probably make another blog just for arguments (and politics probably) so that my followers and mutuals don't have to worry about me going politics mode on their feeds.
Reblogs and replies got disabled, surprise surprise.
