its making me feel insane to see ppl say kamala is the safer option when shes like. showed to our faces shes not doing anything in her own parties interest and would rather pander to centrists to win by being intentionally vague and misleading
#i cannot stand this election bullshit#and i cannot stand the liberals that think shes going to save us from anything#when biden has been pres and shes been VP and nothing has gotten done for 4 years#like theyre fundamentally useless and ppl wanna get on my ass for wanting at least a 5% voting total for a third party candidate#so they can actually show up on the ballot#idfk guys#oh not to mention the literal genocide they said they would continue and Not stop lol#they can say they want a ceasefire but tim has already said they will continue with the expansion of israel#thats the SAME THING AS A GENOCIDE

yknow i gotta say. lex luthor can be a really fun and interesting villain, but sometimes it does just take me aback the way some people talk about him when trying to make him funny and cool, as if his biggest and most infamous shtick is not extreme, violent xenophobia.
#rimi talks#the man is literally genocidal. AND he wants to kick krypto when he has kryptonite out. thats racism AND animal cruelty#like he can genuinely be such a fun and fascinating villain!!!!! he can!! he's FUN in say superman birthright#but for example new krypton lex? i wanted to throttle that man. i did.#and like i know people do stuff like haha what if supervillain was actually fun or funny or cool etc#but imo that can be done in ways that don't downplay that he Fuckign SUCKS#see also: reign of the supermen movie lex. horrible man. also hilarious to see him onscreen with lois#but the ''good dad lex luthor'' stuff (🙄) and other things in that general vein make me so....#you know that man would be violently abusive to an alien child in the same way white supremacists are violently abusive to mixed children.#you guys know that. right? his entire thing is vehement and violent xenophobia. you guys know that right#lex luthor (derogatory)#<- its been a hot minute since i blogged about him but im like 90% sure thats my lex tag

i really cant get over ocean vuong just randomly being like 'oh palestine........how the palestinians and their supporters suffer....i also suffer....ppl think my poetry is cringe' its been 24 hrs and im still trying to figure out how this shit is related. not to put my black ass 2 cents in it but non black poc love to act like some white child in grade school thinking their food was weird is like the most grievous racialized wound u can receive. like idk how to tell u this worstie but some children of color are brutally murdered
#and we can talk abt the diaspora even tho they just say the same things atp#but why bring up a devastating humanitarian crisis and racial genocide to talk abt how u feel sad that some ppl dont rock w u#its art? thats kinda the point

"We should call out Egypt & Jordan for not accepting Palestinian Refugees"
Baby girl you can't even call out genocide that's happening live on your screens in full color. Sit down.
#if the Palestinians leave then its 1948 all over again and they will never be able to come back#we learned the first time that if we leave then we have no rights to return#we dont want to leave#we want them to stop killing us#its not that hard to understand but sure blame others blame everyone except the ones killing us let me know how that works out for you#tw: genocide#palestine#current events#sometimes I actually feel insane bc you do know thats what they want right? thats exactly what they want#they want us to leave#they want to make it hell for us to ever set foot on our land#did you know that if you are Palestinian and anytime you travel even with legal documents in or out of the country#they can stop and harass you?#did you know anytime I travel I have to account for at least 4 hours of interrogation at an airport? and I have legal documents#I account 4 hours bc thats the longest time they've held me in a windowless room#anyways im so done with people who do not understand the history every fucking year its the same thing: just go somewhere else#we dont want to go somewhere else

It is crazy how much skinny able-bodied white ppl don't see anyone outside of themselves as human and will only prop up different kinds of ppl (fat, disabled, poc, ect ect) to either act as a free pass to be bigoted 'but they think its funny too' type of thing, or to make themselves look better by pretending to care about whatever demographic those ppl belong to. But since they don't actually see those ppl as humans and only use them as a toy, the second they get bored they find any excuse to throw them away
Like so many white grifters started talking about Palestine as a free ego boost and proping up motaz and bisan. But now that they're getting bored they're starting to look for way to un-hitch themselves from that movement and catch their next grift without ppl pointing out that it's fucked up that they never really cared about a literal genocide and only saw it as a chance to make themselves look better.
And now they're using the fact that a Sudanese person criticized something motaz said (rightfully so) as that free pass to say they refuse to care about Palestine anymore and are offloading the blame of that onto black ppl when really nobody told them to be dehumanizing grifters. They did that all on their own :/
#text#g talks#i saw a video this morning#of someone being really fatphobic at someone. and their excuse was 'well thats why they (the fat person) are popular'#and then like 5 mins later the exact same thing happening to a visibly disabled person.#then a bunch of white ppl saying they wont support palestine cause motaz is racist. asked what happened and they said. idk.#they saw someone on tiktok mention something they saw on twitter that some ppl were talking about. but had no idea why.#they just got tired of playing with their toy and were ready to throw it away#finding out that aid for sudan didnt make it to sudan and that this probably isnt the only time thats happened didnt bother them#cause of course it didnt. they didnt pick that genocide as a grift.

Do ignorant assholes realise that freedom of speech protects you from government prosecution for what you say not from people calling you an asshole for what you say?
#a 60 year old ex politics teacher was agreeing with a bunch of incels about how because you can’t be racist or homophobic or sexist anymore#that that means there is no freedom of speech#like bro you are so stupid it hurts#you CAN say all those things but you just gotta deal with the consequences of people calling you out on your bigotry#THATS STILL FREEDOM OF SPEECH#this same 60 year old teacher says he’s neutral to Israel and palestine as he “isnt educated enough to oppose either opinion”#like 1. it’s not a matter of opinion or it being complicated ITS GENOCIDE HOW ARE YOU GONNA SIT THERE AND BE LIKE IM ‘NEUTRAL’ TO GENOCIDE#2. you’ve had over 60 years on this earth to GET educated that’s not an excuse#little kids rn are in protests and can fully explain the entire history of Palestine and Israel#you’re a grown as hell man it’s not that hard to educate yourself#3. this same teacher said that it’s very complicated because it’s in their holy book#like okay so you’re telling me if it turns out the Quran or the tora or#or the Tripitaka had said that the uk or the USA was actually their holy land and birthright you’d be fine with getting massacred??#anyways fuck you alan ❤️#*tipitaka

oh i'm definitely gonna lose some friends for this one huh
#already got vagueposted about by one former friend as 'comparing pro-palestine sentiments to antisemitism'#direct quote 'israel desperately wants them to believe this is a religious war and not a genocide'#same guy who said 'boy howdy do we know their side of the story' and ten short texts later said verbatim:#'we can't use religion as birthright thats stupid and the Number One Tool of Colonizers'#which is a STAGGERING amount of cognitive dissonance#as if religion is the relevant part and not the literal historical fact of jewish indigineity to eretz israel#mind you at the time of the vaguepost the ONLY thing i said regarding palestine#was that if your 'support' for palestinians includes sharing basic antisemitic dogwhistles and blatantly lying about history#then that 'support' will accomplish nothing for palestinians and only get jews killed#and i feel like looking at that and insisting that i'm comparing all pro-palestinian sentiment to antisemitism is uh. telling#we'll see how this ends up going - i fear it may not be the greatest for my social life but i stand by what i said#bc even if i am wrong about Everything directly surrounding israel and palestine#i was strictly discussing antisemitism in the discourse surrounding it#and a longer version of 'no stance on israel makes you immune to antisemitism and antisemitism runs deep and will affect your thinking on#the matter and refusing to acknowledge that is dangerous' isn't actually dependent on the intracacies of the conflict it's just True#and i'm not gonna back down again i'm not going to downplay antisemitism again i'm not going to give up#i'm not sure if i have jewish friends i simply do not know about who see what i say on there#but if i do then i need it to be clear they have Someone who is willing to fight for them#and if not i still need to make it clear i won't stand for blatant antisemitism no matter whose name it's in#the only thing that would make me consider taking down what i said is if i believed it's counterproductive#and part of me wonders if it is - i don't want to put people on the defense bc that's simply not conducive to good faith discussion#but at the same time i know that a lot of what i've needed to hear was fed up or harsh words#that i started off just reading and keeping my defensiveness inside until they sunk in over time#and maybe my frustration will have that effect for someone#damn i really need to make some jewish friends... maybe after break i'll reach out to hillel or a local shul to ask if they could use a han#or something idk we'll see#personal#faggotry enjoyer original

Waited until after the strike week to talk about this but I had like a whole post about how we should be positive about the new ATLA and then uh.
We got the Percy Jackson special. Shitty live action movie. New streaming adaptation that promises it will be more accurate and well written and what the fans want. And then it comes out and it's... not that.
Well at least we can go back to the trailers and pretend the show's not out yet while we enjoy the vibes presented there.
#it was truly an inspired choice to have the main character literally look into the camera and describe his personality and motivations#and taking away every single character arc by removing the central factor for it to happen? mwah chefs kiss#accidenti#i was like actually excited the same way i was about PJO#but nah thats fine. go ahead and ruin everything from my childhood i dont mind#atla#atla netflix#avatar netflix#avatar#avatar the last airbender#the last airbender#ALSO#you have only 8 episodes to tell a 20 episode story#AND YOU CHOOSE QUITE A BIT OF THE FIRST ONE TO SHOW US SOME RANDOM GUY AND AN ON SCREEN GENOCIDE#THE SAME THING THAT WILL BE COMMUNICATED LATER WHEN AANG FINDS THEIR BODIES#ARE YOU TRYING TO REPEAT SHAYAMALANS MISTAKR#i can use every English and Italian cuss i know and it still won't be able to represent my strangely lukewarm frustration at all this#ugh#at least the set and costume designs look good

based on the dms i just got i am starting to believe the vote blue no matter who thing this time around is actually a psyop
#alexis.exe#i just got called a zionist sympathizer for saying i think genocide is bad.......#so like thats either an extremely stupid person#or theyre doing this on purpose#also for legal purposes im not accusing like any actual people of anything#i love (read: hate) how people are trying to drag everyone with even an ounce of morals#kicking and screaming into the far right#dont kill people isnt even radical or controversial statement its literally just basic morals#also @ dems yall NEED a better argument than 'but trump will be worse'#youre literally proving right now that dems literally dont even need to do anything even remotely reasonable ever#dems can literally do the exact same things that reps will do but less and yall will come screaming and crying#into unrelated random peoples dms#begging people to vote for them anyway bc they're not as bad as they could be#do you remember 4 years ago when the promise was#guys vote biden for damage control and then we'll make the democrats more progressive over time#genuinely astounding that someone decided to come into my dms and yell at me for saying its not insane to not want to vote for genocide joe#instead of like. trying to bully genocide joe into not funding genocide anymore#if all of you put your heads together and bullied him maybe he would have fucking stopped sending them#billions of dollars of funds and weapons by now. did you think about that. no the fuck you didnt

it's almost like the only option is dividing things further black and white then just going hardcore to an extreme.
like.
i spent all day yesterday cutting off friends and blogs of people i love in my native community because of the excessive call for violence as the answer to decolonization, maintaining nuance but only for one side and saying fuck all to everything and everyone else.
but then today.
the number of jewish friends and blogs i've had to unfollow because people are doubling down on "hamas bombed a fucking hospital" when there's clear evidence that isn't true and it's propaganda to perpetuate cycles of violence?
fucking horrifying.
#like as someone from a native background and someone working to convert it's just#heartbreaking and frustrating to feel absolutely abandoned by both sides#simply because pointing out israel is built on a settler-colonial stance even if jewish people aren't settlers and colonizers#because they are indigenous to the area#gets me beat to the ground in native circles because it means i support netanyahu and gver and genocide#and i get the same fucking condescending look of 'you shouldnt talk' from liberal jewish groups that are all for saying zionism is a diseas#and yes they agree as jewish people that they are white and israel is white supremacist like#like i'm sorry the fucking whiplash of what the absolute fuck#but then pointing out that palestinians are being mass murdered and their response is clearly understandable#and israel is purposely using this shit to perpetuate genocide#all of a sudden i'm a fucking hypocrite to both sides#and my poor fucking husband is standing here like 'yes thats what you get for being clearly aware and wanting nonviolence'#how dare i not stand solely with israel#how dare i not demand only free palestine#people are just so fucking toxic and caught up in their own opinions being the only opinions and nuance being a fucking crime for condemnin#as if talking about this shit does anything! people are dying on both sides - one clearly more than the other - and what#you truly think attacking people that aren't specifically nodding along in blind support is really the thing that'll change the world#also saw a thing today that was like “being an ally means i will fight for you” like fuck that#but that's a different thing anyway#anyway i hate both my communities and feel absolutely isolated from them and wow#community just really isn't a thing unless you're ride or die without speaking up about anything huh

Sometimes just from someone's username you know they would reblog a post that's like omg Trump will do genocide and Harris will do genocide but with emojis and memes!!
And then you see that they did in fact reblog the post and you're like ohhh can we stop pretending this is any kind of leftism.
#like- part of leftism is actually talking about things#e.g. the fact is that governments have all these complicated alliances with other countries#that each administration inherits- and in global wars this affects how they act towards each country#and yeah its fucking shitty! that all our world leaders will participate in wars! personally im anti war!#but this whole bleakism both sides are the same on foreign policy so we shouldnt fuckin bother voting#its not activism or care for human rights its nihilism#you can tell its not care for human rights because so many people like this idolise countries who#also are doing war crimes and terrorism and human rights abuse#and they dont really have a justification or argument for their admiration of these countries other than#'well this country is no different to [x western country] and you think that is ok riiight?'#i mean...if by ok you mean 'the country exists and will continue to exist and i live there and also vote there'#like...damning with faint praise#anyway look i have to admit i don't understand the social media aspect of us elections#the meme-y stuff that comes directly from the campaign trail- dont get it thats not a thing in the uk#but one thing i am absolutely certain of is that both sides do it!#anyway also dont reblog weird 'genocide- yaaas queen!' memes about kamala harris when you're white/non-black it makes you look racist.#also to continue the train of thought i abandoned (sorry)- i personally believe countries need leaders and anarchy will never happen#and the 'revolution' will not happen in our lifetime- its not a real revolution they are talking about anyway its some sort of internet one#where nothing goes awry and it all works out for the goodies (us tumblr leftists)#so given that someone is going to lead the us as president and no amount of not voting will change that- i say grow up#ur genocide memes are boring- to be quite frank on a site so focused on the day to day struggles of marginalised people#who live in western countries- no matter what the government does abroad you STILL should vote for the day to day#yeah some people online say voting makes you impure and complicit in genocide but the secret is you have to ignore thrm#youre just a fucking random you cant tell the president what to do about international conflict- give yourself a break yeesh

boycotts are a more serious issue than shipping, and you can simply be quiet about not participating in a boycott. If a company bring targeted produces something you literally can't live without, fine, just keep it to yourself. You don't need to beg for validation online.
hot take but when you shame people for liking and not reblogging art then they're probably just not going to interact with it at all. graciously accept the like and understand that people will reblog what they want, forcing it with guilt tactics will breed resentment and then you won't get likes OR reblogs
#White ass addition#Boycotts and genocide aren't the same fucking thing as ships#If you feel guilty for not talking about people being killed... thats your fucking conscience#Anyone serious will tell you not to stress yourself about these things because your burnout helps no one#Do what you can. Spread fundraisers. Keep moderately up to date.#'Keep eyes on Rafah' isn't fucling guilting you the way 'ewwwww you ship that?' is. Grow the fuck up

Btw to the people going 'Well Hamas is bad and Palestinians voted Hamas in therefore Palestinians deserve to get killed'
That happened in 2006. 17 years ago. Any Palestinian who is 34 and under COULD NOT HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THAT ELECTION, and this is INCLUDING the children currently being slaughtered
Along with that Hamas isnt every person in Gaza, thats like saying every American is Donald Trump and supports his actions because they voted him in. Its so obviously wrong when you apply it to literally anything that isnt Palestine
Shut the fuck up and stop supporting actual literal genocide, from river to sea, Palestine will be free
Edit: To the people saying 'Even if everyone supported Hamas that doesnt justify genocide' I absolutely 100% agree. Nothing justifies genocide, however this post is directed at people who try to "excuse" Israels actions by saying 'Well Hamas would do the same thing if they could and Palestinians voted them in so obviously theyre also bad so dont try to support Gaza because theyre just as bad as Israel'
Absolutely nothing justifies genocide, but the people who trying to need to be told they are wrong
Edit 2: In this post I am not comparing Trump and Hamas and saying 'Look how similar they are omg' I am pointing out the hypocrisy of people who try to use Hamas to excuse genocide, while also believing that civilians arent responsible for the actions of their government just because they were voted in
#gaza#palestine#free gaza#free palestine#global strike#from the river to the sea#global strike for palestine#global strike week#strike for palestine#gaza strip#gaza genocide#israel#important#current events#ethnic cleansing#gaza under attack

i know that it’s just bc it’s a ~family~ show and non-violence is the name of the game on doctor who but its SO stupid that ten gets mad at tentoo for killing all the daleks in the s4 finale like girl the daleks are the ‘genocide is out only purpose’ race. can you get it together. its okay if he genocides them. okay. idiot.
#talked abt this with will whenever we got yo the finale and im so glaf im not insane for yhinking this.#it’s like. you could have just left it unaddressed (like usual!) that he did genocide and no one would have even blinked. but noooo we#needed a reason to put him in rose’s dimension so that she could ‘fix’ him. as is her duty as a woman i guess. whatever.#mi#the tentoo/rose stuff is sooooo like… taking it at face value/optimistically it’s nice that they have each other or whatever and its clearly#meant to be sweet. but if you think abt it longer then two seconds its just so :| YIKES…. a lot of it comes down to autonomy#like rose’s autonomy is ignored completely she does not get a choice. a bit evil. not gonna get into it but it’s the same with donna’s#memory wipe. and this matters less to me but i think it’s still important but tentoo’s autonomy is also ignored! which is interesting#i was joking when i said to will that ‘tentoo is a woman because he has no autonomy’ but also i was right#he’s like the sexy lamp trope for boys (sci-fi macguffin edition)#or ig not a macguffin. whats the word for the trope thats like [thing or person] that exists to solve the plot but doesn’t really matter#outside of that#anyway. i feel like both rose’s and donna’s endings would feel less misogynistic if they weren’t in tandem#with each other. or at least donna’s would. roses i think would still read as misogyny just like. less of a patterned one#donnas would read more as a straight tragedy and not have the skeevy undertone without being paired with roses#mixed feelings on both for sure! as character choices it all tracks and makes me 😭😭😭😭 but as a media literate feminist… 😐😒🤨#wHELL these tags got a bit off topic. whoops. i dont care yho. enjoy the second; secret post
