Ren. (he/they) (white) (TME) I like a lot of things. I write lots of meta. This is mostly a Twin Peaks, Elder Scrolls and classic horror blog. Also. Disco Elysium I’m disco blog now.
Hey y'all. Bad news. Google is getting worse in a very short amount of time. If you haven’t already heard, starting July of this year, 2026, Samsung messages will officially close. And they are all pushing android users to download a google messaging app… that isn’t great because Google and Israel are in bed together. They have a 1.2 billion dollar contract with google to monitor messaging.
And in September of this year google is rolling out an update that will nonconsensually block every Android app whose developer hasn’t registered with Google, signed their contract, paid up, and handed over government ID. Y'all shit’s getting worse and worse. If you need to get a new phone avoid these big names. Make sure it ain’t in bed with these giants like Google or Apple of you can. More info on this here:
Israel passed a death penalty law that will allow them to execute Palestinian detainees many of which have been detained without due process and many of which were kids when they were detained.
This is the equivalent to camp executions the Nazis did. It’s exactly the same thing
This death penalty law doesn’t apply to Israelis of course because Israel is a violent apartheid
Israel’s Knesset passed a bill on Monday mandating the death penalty for Palestinians convicted of deadly acts of terrorism. The bill stipulates that the death penalty will be imposed on a terrorist who killed a person “with the intent to deny the existence of the State of Israel.”
In doing so, the bill’s wording creates a distinction designating it almost exclusively for Palestinian terror, while the ideological burden of proof it sets is expected to make its application to Jewish nationalist terror nearly impossible.
Sixty-two lawmakers voted in favor of the contentious bill, including several opposition members; 48 voted against it, and one abstained. The law is now applicable in any territory that Israel functionally controls, including the West Bank and 53 percent of the Gaza Strip.
dust storms are NOT normal for gaza’s ecosystem. these are a product of israel’s ecocide, which destroyed the natural environment that otherwise would have kept soil and debris erosion in check. trees, roots, crops, etc, which protected the land have all been bombed over the past two years. with nothing regulating erosion, gazans are left at the mercy of intense waves of polluted, asbestos filled and cancerous dust that get in their lungs and eyes and will cause diseases for generations to come
as always, the people suffering the most from this will be those who lack the funds to buy shelter and protection. with the renewed blockade after the start of the us/israel-iran war,
my friend siraj is also fundraising to protect his family during this time. he is ineligible for aid from a lot of these organizations because he has a fundraiser, but he still lacks the means to support his wife, children, and extended family. pls help him out too
Donate to direct action and gaza municipality and watch your money go to the best cause - if we can be anything we should be efficient. The most effective money you can give is to direct action, to group movements to protect our insurgents from adventurism, to Gazan medical tent for emergency medical relief, to providing water and food for Gaza through grassroots campaigns such as the PFLP’s and mutual aid projects, and to Gaza municipality for their infrastructure. These crucial resources for maintaining life remain underfunded. Support BDS however you can against Carrefour, HP, Puma and Siemens. Share the following toolkit with your union and movement:
share this frequently, please. or include these into other compilations. these are crucial and don’t get as much attention. these are resources that benefit everyone. Look for these resources in other websites with greater traction. Please do your best as you can.
Gaza is under siege, and the price of staples has climbed tremendously. Community kitchens have been forced to close due to lack of supplies, and have been unable to afford to replenish their stocks.
If you are able to, consider donating money to Gaza Soup Kitchen through their GoFundMe or GiveButter accounts to help stave off hunger in the midst of this chaos.
I don’t think America should be burned to the ground because I think you people need to start caring more about indigenous people and their land first.
Like, I understand the sentiment but 9 times out of 10 I hear this sort of stuff from people who do not include indigenous rights in their activism, and rather depend on violent slogans to rid themselves of responsibility to their community, as if they’d prefer to have a pissing contest over who can hate America the most instead of, like… work on restoring land rights to Native Americans or engage with their real life communities.
The American government is a genocidal machine built upon the deaths of millions of Black and Brown people, both in America and oversees, but white people on tumblr would rather joke about burning it all to the ground instead of talk to the people whose land it belongs to and actively work on involving them in their activism.
Like, I don’t talk too much about my politics here, but the landback movement is my main point of activism (not just in America, but in every country across the world) and unfortunately, this tankie-led website always gets suspiciously quiet whenever indigenous people in their own country want to talk about restoring their land, because it doesn’t really fit into their (originally white European) idea of destroying everything from the ground up and turning it into some communist utopia.
Like, I also don’t think you care much about people oversees either, you just kinda want an outlet for your violent fantasies.
It’s the second to last point in this post that I really want to stick.
It doesn’t really fit into their (originally white European) idea of destroying everything from the ground up and turning it into some communist utopia.
A lot of white leftists on this website dream about a revolution to overthrow the American government, but ultimately, they still want the revolution to be led by them. They want a revolution that mimics European revolutions of the past, because those are the revolutions that they have based their activism on.
They want to destroy the land, and build it back up into a system that they have personally designed, or else they joke about America being invaded by countries such as China or Russia so that communism can finally be brought to America.
This is anti-Native, plain and simple. This is not your land to shape or control. This is not your land to replace one genocidal system with another.
These are people who have not decolonised their minds at all, because they show zero respect and care for the land that they are on. They have absolutely no right to say “America should be nuked” when it’s not their fucking land to wish that upon, and they have no right to sit around tweeting about a glorious revolution when indigenous people are still actively being genocided.
What are you doing to stop this genocide? What is your plan, post revolution, to restore the land to its people? Are you willing to rescind your control of this land to the people it belongs to? And, most importantly, how are you going to ensure that indigenous land is not destroyed during the revolution you’re dreaming of?
I know “burn America to the ground” is just a joke. I know “give America to Canada/Denmark/China” is just a joke. But it’s a joke reinforcing ideas. It’s a joke reinforcing colonisation. It’s a joke that proves that America is not your land, because your callousness and nihilism towards it shows that you do not care.
I mentioned this in the replies, and maybe it’s a stretch, but look at how the state of Israel treats Palestine. They destroy it. They burn the trees to ash. They bomb sacred grounds and historical landmarks. They murder the people who have lived there for thousands of years.
Because, no matter what they try to claim, it is not their land. They have absolutely no respect or care for the land that they’re bombing, because they have no genuine connection to it. They are able to say violent things that lead to violent actions because ultimately, its destruction means nothing to them.
So when white leftists say the same things about America, it proves to me that they have not worked on decolonising their politics, because they sound like a coloniser.
Oh no, this post was found by the tankies and now they’re saying I’m acting under the belief that they have any sort of control over America. No, I don’t think that! I think that tankie/ML politics is a very chronically online movement, but one that tries to encourage certain ideas and politics that hold anti-Native undertones, and I am simply asking y’all to unpack these undertones and remove them from your politics, because words fucking matter!!
When Israel allows chips and instant noodles but bans eggs, dairy products, and poultry, it’s not a coincidence… This is a disguised policy of starvation, and the world seems not to understand it yet… or is deliberately ignoring it… The siege continues, but in a different way.
This image isn’t just a news item; it’s part of our daily reality in Gaza. While thousands of trucks loaded with tents, blankets, food, and medicine are held outside the Strip, preventing their entry to the people of Gaza, we here are facing a humanitarian catastrophe that worsens every day. We suffer all the time and everyone ignores what we are going through.
A powerful storm will hit the Gaza Strip tonight, and the media is warning of floods, flash floods, and a sharp drop in temperatures. Thousands of families are homeless, and our tattered tents offer no protection from the cold or the rain. We are living through challenges that are beyond human endurance.
This rainstorm will likely lead to more flooding. Please help them get supplies so they can stay dry and warm!
Exposure to the elements can be just as deadly as weapons of war. continuing to deprive the people of Gaza any relief or assistance is just another way Israel is attacking them. Please help Fadel and his family survive thus
please donate
Please remember that Fadel is still suffering from the pain of his untreated injury, and that he and his family have no adequate shelter. What Fadel is going through is simply more than anyone should have to endure. If you are doing this, you have the opportunity to do something tangible to help him. Please donate - even a small donation can make a difference. After that, share this post so that others have the opportunity to help as well.
Please my friends, the last donation I received was 23 hours ago. I don’t understand why there’s so much neglect. Is what we’re going through so trivial?! Look at us, think of us for a moment, and don’t ignore our suffering.
