“Bored” is an interesting way to describe being brutalized by militarized police and driven back to work due to no healthcare or safety net.

Repost of u can ❤️‍🩹

Never claimed otherwise, just sick of the hot takes that Americans have not done any sustained protests.

A trio of photos of Eslam, the first of her before, young and fresh faced wearing a keffiyeh wrapped around her head. The second a much less healthy Eslam, with skin issues and wearing a plain headscarf. The last a before Eslam hugging a fluffy cat. Happy.

A selfie of Eslam and one of her siblings, smiling happily,

You knew Eslam The Artist when she had an account, that broke no rules but was suspended, taking away access to her friends, she's so young and responsible for her family trapped in Palestine. She has sacrificed her wellbeing to fight, you can help ease that burden. Donate. Share.

Eslam with a keffeyah on, crying with reddened eyes and cheeks.

Eslam has been banned multiple times from this site. At this point, I can't help but see it as active malice. She's escaped from Gaza to Egypt, but the rest of her family is still in Gaza and needs help. You can donate to her here:

So Occupy, the Palestine encampments, and the free zones created and defended during the George Floyd protests didn’t happen?

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate. We must now start calling this what it is: Trump's Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state's military troops. I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation. The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.

Giving up on people because you don't want to do anything to help is a really awful way to be, but also they will come for us too you idiots.

Also, sell your house if you’re so principled. You park your privileged ass in a vacation house a US resident could be living in, yet you act like your pussy hat protests make you anything less than a capitalist. Go on with being the voice of the “rest of the world.”

You “live in Canada”? Not you “are Canadian”? Sure sounds like a wealthy white US citizen hiding in Alberta.

Get off your high horse and worry about the fascism rising in your own province. No one’s coming to save a scolding bitch.

Were you planning to start soon?

Don’t be distracted by the news of the ceasefire.
The bombing doesn’t stop for even a moment, and it’s being intensified insanely!!!!

Yay! Only 2000 away the final goal finallllllllllllly 😭😭😭😭😭

This is how ICE drove by protesters yesterday. A row of state police separated protesters and ICE vehicles.

The thing I respect about Greta Thunberg is that she understands most people in the Western world don’t give a shit about atrocities until someone white is affected.

So she’s doing what needs to be done to keep up the pressure.

If more white folks followed that example, we’d all be fine.

IF U LIKED THIS #ART, PLS REPOST!!

bangs. "They was terrified. The kids was crying. People was screaming. They looked very distraught. I was out there crying when I seen the little girl come around the corner, because they was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other," Watson said. "That's all I kept asking. What is the morality? Where's the human? One of them literally laughed. He was standing right here. He said, 'f*** them kids.'" Watson said trucks and military-style vans were used to separate parents from their children. Other neighbors said agents destroyed property to get in the building. "They had a big, 15-inch chainsaw with round blade on it, cutting this fence down," said witness Darrell Ballard. "We're under siege. We're being invaded by our own military."

“Fuck them kids.”

That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other.
