words cannot express how pissed off i am at the news of trump being invited to the championship game on thursday. so a fascist president can be invited to a game, but players can't wear pride jerseys or any other specialized jerseys during warm ups? it's "keep politics out of sports" until the politics align with your harmful views
If you're having trouble keeping up with what's going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:
While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as "pro terrorism" (which they're not, they're literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.
Please don't stop speaking about Palestine.
The only reason I started watching the leafs halfway into the season(first season watching nhl)
idk about you but personally i’m a big fan of our goalie tandem
south africa was banned in the olympics in 1964, 1968, 1972, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988 & 1992. a total of 8 times. for 28 years they didn't set foot in the olympics. you know why? apartheid. apparently the olympics disagreed with the apartheid regime in south africa. russia & belarus aren't allowed to take part in the olympics this year. you know why? because of their involvement in the war in ukraine. several countries throughout history haven't been allowed to participate in the olympics because of various reason from their involvement in war to human rights abuses. now if the olympics aren't blind to all that... why in the world are they blind to what israel has been doing to gaza for the past 10 months? why is a genocidal apartheid nation allowed to participate in the olympics when any other country in its place would've been banned?
@ barça you have one job
me when i get asked why i suddenly dislike a character (i can’t tell them it’s because i read a fanfic where said character made y/n’s life miserable and now i have personal beef with them)
With so much of the news cycle focused on the crackdowns on American universities, I wanted to post news out of Palestine today:
Israel completes the shutdown of local Al Jazeera offices, making it that much more difficult to get out dissenting information:
Bombings continue in Rafah, where 7-month-old Hani Qishta, already orphaned, was killed himself. (I've blurred the image but if you click on source, it's unblurred.)
This is how I learned that Orthodox Christians paint their Easter eggs red, not the pastel I'm used to. The number of Christians in Gaza is tiny and shrinking fast during this genocide.
The person posting this, Hossam Shabat, is one of the last journalists in north Gaza. He's 21 years old and has already see more despair than most people will in a lifetime.
All universities in Gaza have been destroyed, and thousands of students and hundreds of professors killed.
Congrats to this family and best wishes to young Haron. He has big shoes to fill.
