Hey, would you consider taking down this post: https://www.tumblr.com/accessible-art/733352422469156864
The phrase "from the river to the sea" is an antisemitic phrase. That phrase is about the forceful expulsion of Jews from every land and into the sea to die off. It is very unfortunate that it's being used unwittingly by well meaning people to rally support for Palestine and their suffering (which we should do! Please don't misunderstand). That phrase is too loaded.
hello there anon, i am going to word this as gently as i can. i myself am jewish, and i will not be taking down the post as i fundamentally disagree that "from the river to the sea" is antisemitic. the saying is not to do with expelling jews from anywhere, much less killing us all. it is referring to the fact that israel is a settler colonial state on land that palestinians (of all religions - including jews) have inhabited for thousands of years. from the river to the sea is a reaffirmation of this land-history and a call to action against the ethnic cleansing, genocide, and erasure that palestinians have faced under israeli apartheid/governance. saying that the restoration of palestinian land to the palestinian people would result in jewish genocide is a baseless projection. do not get me wrong, there are absolutely people using the pro-palestine movement as a mask for their antisemitism, but this phrase did not originate with them. the reason this phrase is so divisive is the same reason "landback" is so divisive. settler-colonialism is so pervasive in the west that the idea of indigenous people seeking sovereignty over their land without violently dispossessing all others who live on the land is unfathomable, no matter how many times indigenous people have made it clear that they have no desire to do so. to put it bluntly, that phrase is only "too loaded" if you do not recognize palestinians as indigenous to their land, at which point whatever support you're "rallying" would be rendered useless.
you are welcome to unfollow us if this explanation does not satisfy you, but we will not be taking down our pro-palestine content.

Afa I wish that you could never receive any hate, but in this world, especially online, I understand that is impossible. As my first friend on this site, your happiness has encouraged me to continue my art journey and to be happier myself! From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being the wonderful person you are. I look forward to continuing drawing as many gifts as i can for you, even when I return from my hiatus π₯°ππππ©·πππ©·π©·ππππππ©·ππππ©·
How tf do you get so much fanart and interaction? You're so annoying I'm sick of seeing your art on my dash like you are so fake... no one is genuinely this happy.
I'm sorry to hear you feel that way, but I really am this happy!! I'm grateful for every nice comment, every reblog, every doodle people are kind enough to give me. π If you are sick of seeing my art, maybe just block me instead of sending me angry messages? I think you'll feel a lot better that way. I hope things get better for you!
i think my funniest headcanon is that vector is the only neurotypical cishet man in the sonic cast. like if beige khakis were a person
lookinβ at pictures of silver the hedgehog as reference for a drawing but i just keep getting distracted βcus heβs so cute and i love him :]]]]]]
silver shipping be fucked up. we are drag n dropping him together with several different people from the past. his love defies time, but their mortality cannot
