LOOK AT HER

in case you're wondering what the greatest AMV of all time is, it's this one from 2008.

Thank you black trans men and women and nonbinary folk

everyone say thank you to black trans women and black trans men

Israel recycles the same justification and it's really obvious that this is one of those instances where they repeat a lie long enough in hopes it becomes truth.

So here I am repeating the obvious just so that this lie doesn't get normalised:

Israel is conducting airstrikes on shelters and displacement camps, a flagrant violation of international law.

These camps and shelters have always, always been in areas designated as "safe zones" by Israel. So even if Hamas members were doing backflips in the middle of the camp, that does not mean Israel can bomb an area it directed civilians to go to.

Though never, not once, was Israel able to prove that it had in fact killed Hamas members when it committed these massacres. Civilians who live in these areas have recorded their testimonies time and time again to say there has not been any Hamas activity around them.

Still, nothing justifies the bombing of schools turned shelters. Nothing. Nothing justifies using heavy artillery against tents made of fabric and plastic sheets. Absolutely nothing.

I have probably made a variation of this post 600 times in the past 11 months alone, but remember that repeating these Israeli "justifications" without challenging them only allows Israel to continue its crimes and prolongs this genocide that had already claimed the lives of way more than 50,000 Palestinians.

Dismantling the Lies of Abusive Parents Masterlist

Resources

Giving you food and clothing is the bare minimum

You don’t owe gratitude for food and clothes you needed as a child

You had the right for basic resources

Parents shaming you for costing money is ironic and stupid

What it means when they say ‘This is MY house’

My house = my rules is blackmail

Children don’t owe absolute obedience for being fed and sheltered

Physical abuse

You are allowed to refuse any touch, not only violence

If they ‘don’t know they’re hurting you’, why do they ignore or punish you when you protest?

Hitting children is irrational and doesn’t work

You cannot ‘provoke’ your parents to abuse you if they’re not abusive

Why do parents actually hit, manipulate and traumatize children

Blatant Lies

Care, nurture and affection do not make you weak

They’re lying when they say it ‘wasn’t that bad’‘

You wouldn’t have grown up spoiled if not for abuse

You got too affected by it’ is a lie

Your parents are not ‘just too emotionally immature’ to understand abuse

‘You’re not living in the real world!’ is nonsense

You’re not worthless, a burden, ungrateful, or stupid, and your parents know that.

Constant undermining of your accomplishments is abuse

Not being allowed to talk about the past is symptom of abuse

Parents who want you to be happy vs look happy

You are not abusive for resisting abuse

When they claim ‘they didn’t mean it’, it’s still abuse

Your parents are responsible for their own actions regardless of how badly they try to shift blame on you

Psychological abuse

Blind Obedience is not required in a healthy upbringing

Disgust is a weapon abusive parents use on their kids

If they say they love you, but walk all over your feelings, they don’t 

Parents don’t have the right to enter your room to scream at you

Parents insisting for you to be ‘tough’ are doing it to hide the trauma

Even if a kid acts like ‘they can take it’, it’s still abuse

Pretending abuse is discipline will leave children permanently scarred

It’s inhumane to control and shame children’s reactions to abuse

Why don’t you already know this? vs Teaching you necessary skills

Acting like they’ll change is escape sabotage

Parents are responsible for protecting children from harm

References to how healthy parenting looks like

Not being allowed to be angry with your parents is psychological abuse

If parents want you to act way you did when you were little, they’re dangerous

Threats about how hard your life will be later on, are bad for you

Lack of continuity and ever-changing rules will cause anxiety

Forced obedience will lead you to abusive relationships

Parents acting like you’re a ‘bad’ is a shame tactic to control you

There’s healthy and abusive ways to give children chores

Revisioning the past and insisting you remember it wrong is gaslighting

If your parents make you suicidal, they’re abusive

Parents threatening ‘they could be worse’ is abuse

Always assuming the worst intentions for your actions is wrong

Keeping children hostage in abuse is torture
