REBLOG IF YOUR BLOG IS A SAFE SPACE FOR AROMANTIC PEOPLE AND IF YOU THINK THEY ARE VALID

I want to see how many people actually are willing to say this and not just act like it

Dozens of women were arrested from their homes and refugee centers, taken to Yarmouk Stadium in Gaza, their hijabs were removed from their heads, blindfolded, and they were searched. Many of them were subjected to sexual harassment, beatings and abuse. [@/mhdksafa on X. 12/28/23.]

I won't forgive ANYONE who calls themselves a feminist -for remaining silent about this genocide -you ARE complicit. During any and all instances of institutionalized and systematic violence, oppression, and abuse being executed by all imperial and colonial forces around the world -for you to say nothing -shame on ALL of you for cherry picking your 'issues.'

queerness under apartheid

everyone in palestine is disabled btw. if not by physical disability then by debilitating trauma that WILL develop into ptsd (bc lbr they’re not even in the POST traumatic event stage. they’re suffering complex trauma that WILL Cause ptsd or Cptsd). this is a disabled rights issue. if they werent disabled before they are now! theres also so many palestinians with pre existing disabilities who have to go without treatment, meds, mobility aids, support… there are autistic palestinians as well! and palestinians with down syndrome! and palestinians with bipolar, schizophrenia, etc who probably haven’t had access to meds in MONTHS. imagine having untreated schizophrenia and being in an active war zone

there are palestinians who were disabled before the genocide, there are palestinians who became disabled during, and more are to come if something is not done and thats just the physical conditions. this is a human issue, a feminist issue, a disabled issue. everyone should be mad

ceasefire now

Reminder that the US bombed Iraq a day ago. Reminder that this attack has killed 16 Iraqis, many of whom were civilians. Reminder that Iraq has already suffered enough at the hands of US imperialism, that to this day it’s recovering from the aftermath of being defamed to the world as terrorists, from its cities being destroyed under the guise of “exterminating ISIS” (an echo of Israel decimating Palestine to “exterminate Hamas,” interesting), that the US has so many ulterior motives to continue encroaching upon Iraq that have nothing to do with their seemingly noble rationale, and that it does all this while funding Israel’s ongoing genocide of Palestinians (which are basically doing their dirty work of pushing further in on Arab territory). It’s jarring that this is all happening on a world stage & yet nothing is being done to stop it. Hands off Iraq. Free Palestine. Hands off Iraq. Free Palestine.

you're not stuck. it's not over. you can claw yourself out again and again. find strength in yourself. find strength in others whom you can trust. the fight isn't over until you're dead.
