feelin like a dying tamagotchi rn

yes ty that's a very good meme about how european nations discriminate against romani ppl. perhaps next we could try learning about specific historical and modern manifestations of this bigotry to better understand the challenges faced b- oh. that's the same meme again. sick

mohammed and his family (verified) really need a boost rn! they are struggling to cover basics for 27 people, including mohammed's sister, who is pregnant and hasn't been able to get medical attention that she needs. you can read more of their story & donate on their chuffed page.

It's with a heavy but hopeful heart that I watch Palestinian families fundraise on here, slowly accumulating the precious little money to go around that they need to survive. However, not everyone is so lucky. A lot of Palestinians that have not had that kind of luck, that did not get early verification, that did not get massive platforms behind them from large bloggers, have approached me in my inbox, asking me kindly to do what I can for them. It kills me that I have so little to give myself, but I've seen this platform collectively raise enough to change someone's life. I've made a list of Palestinian fundraisers that are extremely low on funds, in the hope that drawing attention to people who have not been lucky at all can help turn that luck around. I know most of us can't possibly give enough to get all of these families safe in one go. But please, reblog this list. Pick one or two fundraisers, give what you can, and then keep track of it. Slowly, collectively, we can make a difference in these people's lives. Share and donate as much as you can. https://docs.google.com/document/d/178EGDFKkHlh3y4TMVX82kqgITHsqtoMdNccI2f_94Os/edit?usp=sharing

Luigi Mangione could be getting the death penalty…

This man is innocent, his appearance and build doesn’t match that of the killers, the only “motive” he had was a convenient written confession showing that he supposedly viewed healthcare companies as “parasitic” and too expensive (which does somewhat contradict the actual killers actions) he had said note and the murder weapon conveniently on him while living his ordinary life, the killer held the gun in his right hand while Luigi is left-handed, Luigi and the Killer were potentially seen simultaneously, they wore slightly different coats.

The NYPD KNOW these are different people, they know the evidence is lacking, this isn’t a mistaken identity, it’s framing, they are trying to make themself appear to still be control by catching this man, humiliating him, killing him, when they know full well that the person they are prosecuting ISNT EVEN THE RIGHT GUY! This is an injustice! This is not a fair trial! This is downright tyranny!

if anyone is trying to donate to help in Gaza through orgs, these ones were just banned by the Israeli government with no reason given and can no longer operate in Gaza (at least for now).

these are the orgs: Palestinian Australian New Zealand Medical Association, Glia Project, Palestinian American Bridge, PalMed, Baitulmaal, FAJR, Palestinian American Medical Association, Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund

from what i’ve been told by people who have been working in/coordinating aid in Gaza, Palestinian Red Crescent Society, World Central Kitchen, and Anera are unaffected by this order, but everyone has been limited in what they can bring in. while the middle two aren’t medical orgs, they have been bringing in some medicine. PRCS is a red cross affiliate providing medical care.

(not trying to sway anyone’s donations but wanted to put this out there since PCRF has been the org i’ve recommended several people donate to previously.)

It's true!! Imagine this painful scene... A mother lived with hope for her son's return, even though she knew deep down that he had been gone for more than a year and a half. Donate here But the tragedy is not over yet... Today, amidst the rubble, she finally found her son, but not as she had hoped to find him; all that remained of him was a skeleton! Nevertheless, she did not hesitate for a moment, hugging him to her chest as if he were still alive, as if she could bring him back to life with her love and longing. This is not a scene from a tragic novel; it is the reality of Gaza, where loss is endless and pain knows no bounds. Donate here

how do you respond to the fact that there are two million arabs in israel with equal rights?

The fucking Nakba law prohibits PCI (Palestinians in the settler state) to discuss or commemorate the tragedy of the Nakba

The Arabs who were allowed to stay following the war in 1948 were subjected to military rule until 1966.

A Jewish person has the right to return and claim their citizenship, an Arab or PCI and their descendants in diaspora who is native to Palestine and the settler-occupied territories are not.

A Jewish convert in the west is somehow more eligible to citizenship in the settler state than a Palestinian Arab in the diaspora.

There is a wage gap between PCIs and Jewish people in the settler state;

More than half of the PCI families in the settler state are poor.

The settler state issued a Nation-state law in 2018 that stated that self-determination is unique to the settler state. Arabic lost its status as an official language and the settler-state mandates and promotes the establishment and development of kibbutzim.

This gives precedence to settlements in the West Bank as the Likud party considers the West Bank (Judea Samaria, lol) to be part of the settler state.

PCIs are not allowed to develop their own infrastructure or settlements unless with a permit, which is impossible to get if you're PCI.

Many PCI communities are forbidden the right to a weapon's license unlike their Jewish counterparts.

The Call to Prayer ban by Ben Gvir.

East Jerusalem Palestinians account for 350.000 of the Arabs in the settler state civil registry. They are not eligible to vote.

PCI communities are treated like fifth columns;

70% of PCIs are afraid of expressing their opinions on social media about Palestine, fearing backlash from the Settler state community. A notable case is when Israeli students started chanting "death to arabs" when a student expressed their sympathies for the Palestinians. The PCI student was expelled.

No, 1.65 million Arabs/PCI are not enjoying the same rights as their jewish counterparts in the ethnosupremarcist state.

rb to tell prev they're being so brave right now and pat their head a little please
