Human life is more important than the constant consumption of new electronics. End the exploitation of Congo.

THIS IS REALLY POWERFUL AND I HOPE EVERYONE WATCHES

Thank you for your compassion! The situation in the Congo is heartbreaking, but there are ways to help. You can: 1️⃣ Support Congolese-led organizations: Donate or amplify the work of: Friends of the Congo @congofriends – Advocates for peace and justice in the DRC. Panzi Foundation @panzifoundation – Supports survivors of conflict-related violence. Congo Love @congo.love – Focuses on youth empowerment in the Congo. 2️⃣ Raise Awareness: Share information about the conflict, the role of multinational corporations, and the exploitation of minerals like cobalt and coltan. Follow Congolese activists like Kambale Musavuli (@kambale on X). 3️⃣ Demand Corporate Accountability: Many tech and auto companies profit from conflict minerals. Support ethical sourcing initiatives like The Fair Cobalt Alliance. 4️⃣ Push for Policy Change: Contact your representatives and ask them to support legislation that ensures ethical mineral sourcing and holds companies accountable. Groups like ENOUGH Project advocate for policy changes in the U.S. Every action matters! Let’s keep spreading awareness and standing in solidarity with the people of the Congo. ✊🏾 #FreeCongo #EndResourcePlunder #BloodOnTheirHands

If you care about Palestine, please care about the Democratic Republic of Congo too.

On the 5th of February, 2025 more than 100 women raped and burned alive in DR Congo jailbreak, UN says.

More than 100 female prisoners were raped and then burned alive during a jailbreak in the Congolese city of Goma, according to the UN.

Hundreds of prisoners broke out of Munzenze prison last Monday, after fighters from the M23 rebel group began to take over the city.

Between 165 and 167 women were assaulted by male inmates during the jailbreak, an internal UN document seen by the BBC says.

The report states that most of the women were killed after the inmates set fire to the prison.

The BBC has not been able to verify the reports.

Goma, a major city of more than a million people, was captured after the Rwanda-backed M23 executed a rapid advance through eastern DR Congo.

The city was plunged into chaos, with bodies lying in the streets and missiles reportedly flying over residential homes.

Footage from last week's jailbreak showed people fleeing from the building as smoke rose in the background. Heavy gunfire could also be heard.

🇨🇩 this is happening right now. Congo is facing a silent genocide aided/funded by big tech and western governments including the us. Congo needs us to care.

By holiday onto your old technology for as long as you can is a good start, if you have to replace it consider getting refurbished tech.

Camps near Goma, housing over 300,000 displaced people, have been destroyed and looted, forcing many to flee once again.

The advance of M23 rebels, who have seized parts of North Kivu, has exacerbated the crisis, with hundreds killed in recent fighting.

Displaced individuals, many of whom have fled multiple times, are now attempting to return home despite lacking resources and facing immense hardshi

Peace African Hope Organisation: Supporting displaced Congolese people.

My friend Emmanuel runs the Peace African Hope organisation, which is supporting Congolese people who have been displaced by the ongoing genocide.

Emmanuel's camp is currently home to 6,000 people, including 800 pregnant people and 100 babies, and obviously there will be more babies coming very, very soon.

Emmanuel is raising money so he can purchase formula, prenatal vitamins, and nappies so he can cover the healthcare costs, such as getting vaccinations for the newborn babies, so he can purchase clothes and shoes. So please consider donating to his campaign if you can.

Please note this campaign is in Norwegian kroner, so about 11 kroner equates to one US dollar.

I donated 100 krona, and that came to about £7 in British Sterling, so please look up the exchange rates before you donate to make sure that you are donating what you think you are donating. Thank you for sharing, thank you for donating, and thank you for supporting Emmanuel.

“The M23’s unrelenting killings and rapes are bolstered by the military support Rwandan commanders provide the rebel armed group,”

ANDIF YOU THINK THE U.S. has nothing to do with this rebel group being emboldened…

You need to remember Biden recently met with African leaders in Angola to advance the Lobito railway and extend it into Congo's mining heartland.

Connections between Israeli lobby, TikTok Ban, and what Luigi Mangione became the face of: anti capitalist American system.

It is important to understand that these are deeply intertwined. We cannot see them as separate individual issues. While TikTok had its toxic influences on children before, and while everyone was talking about its alleged ties to CCP before, it didn’t become considered a national security threat until the latter half of the year 2023. After October 7, Palestinians in Gaza started to post live streams of a literal genocide that was and, to this day, is happening to them. Israel lost control of their Zionist narrative and rhetoric because of it. People in the US became aware of what is really happening. We’ve learned so much during the last 15 months. That most of US tax dollars not only fund this genocide conducted by Israeli defensive force that is unfolding before our eyes, but also take care of israel citizens free healthcare, free education, and affordable housing. While in the US. Citizens suffer from medical debt, lack of medical care, student loans, low wages for teachers, banning of educational books, erasing of America’s own genocidal history, food deserts, unhealthy foods and the sickness they cause, mental health and drug use epidemic, mass shootings, high cost of living, low and staggering minimum wage, homelessness, criminalization of homelessness, police brutality, and the list goes on. American sufferings are deeply tied to and caused by Israel supremacy. NYPD and cop cities popping up across the nation have deep connection with Israel Defense Force. Militarization of police force against protesters is rooted in joint training with IDF.

One of the early sentiments for a tiktok ban was expressed by ADL chief executive Jonathan Greenblatt to prevent further interference by Palestinians and their supporters. And since majority of the US congress is bought by AIPAC, it was seen as threat to Americans. Not to the everyday hard working Americans, but to Israeli Jews and those who control the narratives. American oligarchy. The billionaires and the media. The mainstream media lost the plot and viewership. People can now see through their lies and propaganda.

Where does Luigi Mangione come into this? wether he actually shot Brian Thompson or not is irrelevant. The shooting happened and Luigi Mangione became the face of the fight against American corruption. Healthcare is human rights in Israel and it is afforded by American tax payers. Luigi himself apparently had major issues with the system. These billion dollar corporations including insurance companies as well as McDonald’s, Coca-Cola, Kellogg’s,Nestle, Apple, Google, Meta, also contribute to controlling of the main stream media and the U.S. government and wars conducted by Israel.

They are banning TikTok not because of Chinese interference like they pretend to make a big deal out of. They are banning TikTok because they need to control the narrative to keep Israel going and keep us ordinary citizens separated, by political parties, class, race, gender identities, anything they can lay their hands on. The CEO shooting and the Palestinian voices are both threat to them. We cannot see these as separate issues. While we fight for Luigi’s innocence and freedom, while sexualization and idolization of Luigi are cute, we need to understand that the fish to fry is much bigger than Free Luigi. It is the corporate America and it’s tie to Israel.
