“Noa Argamani was treated well!”

She was kept as a hostage slave in a wealthy family’s apartment, forced to clean it whenever they knocked without warning, for EIGHT MONTHS. Just because they fed her does not mean she wasn’t a hostage and a slave. Her mother also has terminal cancer and was afraid she was never going to see her again.

If you start justifying human rights abuses against women, Jews, and Asians (she is half Chinese) because they are Israeli, you were never against antisemitism, misogyny, or wanted to stop Asian hate.

You can support both Palestinian and Israeli civilian lives.

[fortheloveofpiggy]

Btw movements like lgbt rights, stop Asian hate, blm, free Palestine, etc are NOT some quirky aesthetic and people needs to stop grouping it into things like it is

Genuinely seen Pinterest post making fun of “fake goth” and on the fake goth side there’s a sticker of one of these movements and the only thing I have to say is fuck off.

it’s honestly really embarrassing seeing so many people suddenly go quiet after campaigning to hell and back for every other social justice cause under the sun lol. especially the black, brown, and lgbt community. i see who isn’t saying anything despite being vocal about everything else, and i have no words for y’all besides grow up and grow a pair

Hey, pro tip for allies of marginalized groups(any kind of marginalized group, queer, disability, race- anything)

If someone is describing how they had a sucky experience bc of whatever marginalized group they're a part of- that is not the time to say something like "oh I've never had that problem!" Or "this solution always fixed it for me!"

Maybe your intentions are good. Like, genuinely trying to help.

But what comes across is; I, as an ally, know more about this problem that you, the marginalized person, have experienced.

Or maybe your intentions were more

"I will feel good after helping this poor marginalized person, which should be easy, bc that problem never was a big deal for me!"

than you consciously realized.

PS one thing all allies ought to educate themselves on is which problems are the kind of problems where it's best to offer sympathy and a listening ear, and move on, versus which ones you can use your privilege to help with. There's a difference between venting about a problem vs actually seeking help and support.
