Why are we planning the ends of our boycotts? y'all have noticed that too right? like it's not until demands are met or anything, it's just for a few days
Something I'm thinking about with the current situation in the Strait of Hormuz is how economic reality and actual, real life industrial capacity clashes against economic fiction and gambling. 20% of the world's oil and gas supply is currently stuck, with other goods heavily affected (fertilizer most prominently), actual oil infrastructure has been blown up to hell with years of reconstruction ahead, there are already shortages in major countries... and "the markets" keep going up and down like nothing is happening, a total disconnection from reality
And in a way, they are reality, aren't they? Somehow the financial class of the imperial core is able to do whatever they want with numbers and ignore the actual reality that affects millions of people. You cannot make oil barrels in a computer, you cannot speculate on the price of a crop that underperforms because of fertilizer. But they try anyways.
I'm already used to this in Argentina. Liberal economists who say that inflation is a "purely monetary phenomenon" who believe everything can be summed up to numbers and gambling with exchange rates and debt while the actual factories, farms, schools and daily budgets of people suffer and decay. The "real economy" they say, as far as I'm concerned the "real" economy is the only one that exists. However, somehow they manage to impose their strange, nonsense gambling idea of the world upon us, with real effects, like a religion.
I'm just rambling, don't mind me.
And this is of course to say nothing about the actual deaths and suffering in Iran, and so many other nations. It's all completely disconnected from reality from them. Just one look at a grieving mother with a child dead from a missile should stop everything on its tracks, force resignations, make these people fall one by one. Yet the world turns as always, and they double down, against the disgust and repudiation of the world (and no matter how bad things might seem, the world realizes), they triple down, preaching cruelty and genocide.
Someday there will be a reckoning. Not out of cosmic justice or anything, but because they cannot simply keep ignoring reality and getting away with it. You cannot perpetuate a system of oppression when the class balance is against you. And right now the struggle isn't limited to a single country.
I HEARD MY BABY QAIS WHISPER GOODBYE TODAY.
He wasn’t crying, he wasn’t screaming… just a quiet voice asking me if he will feel better soon, and I couldn’t answer him.
I froze in that moment, realizing that my child is starting to feel something is wrong with his body, something I cannot fix alone no matter how much I try… unless someone helps me
I am losing him slowly, not all at once, and that is what hurts the most. Please donate now—your help could still save my baby before it is too late.

Today I folded the same blood-stained bandage again because I have nothing else to use for my baby Qais. I feel like I am failing him more each day. Please donate now and help me save my child.
“Europe is literally the creation of the Third World. The wealth which smothers her is that which was stolen from the underdeveloped peoples. The ports of Holland, the docks of Bordeaux and Liverpool were specialized in the Negro slave trade, and owe their renown to millions of deported slaves. So when we hear the head of a European state declare with his hand on his heart that he must come to the aid of the poor underdeveloped peoples, we do not tremble with gratitude.”
— Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth (via precarious-life)
I regret having to say this, but I have to. I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and doesn't offer a single word of support, ignoring me completely.
I'm forced to write this because I'm tired of asking for help and being ignored by everyone. I'm writing this now while suffering from severe stomach pain due to hunger, and to make matters worse, the doctor told me that my anemia is ravaging my body and my health will deteriorate further if I don't eat properly and take my medication and vitamins. I can't take it anymore. I' m completely exhausted from malnutrition.
All I care about is keeping my sick brother and my family healthy. Please help us buy healthy food so that my anemia doesn't kill me, and so that we can buy my brother's medication and healthy food for ourselves. Please donate.
Please help my friend Ahmed. He and his brother have been suffering with the effects of malnutrition and anemia. Closures have made food very expensive. Please help his family to afford nutritious food and medicine!
Please share and give what you can to help Ahmed and his family, the horrible seige is still continuing in Gaza and they need help
Please help me, everyone. I'm feeling extremely hungry and in pain. My pain is increasing every moment because of the anemia that's ruining my health and making me feel dizzy and tired all day. I need to buy medicine and food to alleviate this pain before I diePlease help us by donating before we die from hunger or anemia. Please don't ignore us and donate to us.
STOP SCROLLING. MY BABY Qais COULD DIE TODAY, AND THESE WORDS MAY BE THE LAST TIME ANYONE HEARS HIS STORY.
I am writing while watching his tiny chest rise and fall slowly, terrified that at any moment it might stop moving forever.
His wound has been bleeding for days, and every time I change the bandages, I see how much weaker he has become. He no longer plays, no longer smiles—he only lies there in pain.
Doctors told me clearly that without urgent treatment, his condition will continue to worsen, and the next bleeding episode could take him away from me without any warning.
Please donate now. Your help could save his life.
Gofundme - Vetted#679
I am begging you as a mother who is watching her child fade in front of her eyes. Share his story or donate today—your kindness might be the only reason Qais survives this nightmare.
Please, I beg you, do not scroll past my pain. I am a mother pleading with the world to see my child’s suffering. Donate now and help me keep Qais alive beside me.
If you are reading this, please do not stay silent. Share his story or donate now. One small action from you today could keep Qais alive tonight.
I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and doesn't offer a single word of support, ignoring me completely.
I write these words with tears in my eyes. I can't bear this situation anymore. My child is completely exhausted from the bitter cold and malnutrition.
All I want is safety for my child and family: blankets to keep them warm, and healthy food to help them survive. These aren't luxuries, but the most basic necessities of life.
Time is running out, donations are scarce, and every delay increases the risk. If you can help, even with a small contribution, please don't hesitate. Your support today could make a real difference in the life of a child who can't wait.

Dear friends, please donate and share. My child has a cold and needs urgent treatment.
🆘 Save me for the sake of my children 🆘
My name is Diala from Gaza, a mother of three young children.
I am suffering from a skull fracture and I urgently need two surgeries, with total treatment costs of $3,000.
I have created this campaign on behalf of my dear friend, and her family
I need at least $500 every week to be able to continue my treatment.
The pain is getting worse every day, and my children live in fear and worry… please don’t let me suffer in silence 💔
🙏 Your donation or your share could save my life.
Please help me stay alive for my children.
✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #715 )✅️
My name doesn’t matter, but my sister’s name does. Ronza is not dying from a bombing right now, but from something slower: brutal cold, severe anemia, and a body that no longer has food or warmth to protect it. At night, the danger grows her blood weakens, her limbs go cold, and the exhaustion never leaves. This is not poetic language. This is her condition today.
According to circulating news, the crossing may open next week. For us, this is not a political update it is a matter of time and survival. Ronza needs to make it to that day. If you are reading this, your presence here can make a real difference: share, donate, or simply say her name out loud. Do not let Ronza become another forgotten number.

My baby Qais is dead—this is what you will hear if you do not help save him today, and I write these words to stop that headline becoming our reality tonight forever alone.
I hold Qais through the night, counting breaths, fearing silence. Time is slipping away, hope is thin. Please don’t scroll past us— Please donate, your donation can turn this ending into life for my baby boy.

There may be no reason for you to notice me, but I am ready to kiss your feet in exchange for helping my little boy, Qais, who was injured in the war on Gaza. You are our last and only hope to save his life 😭💔😔
Hi friend,
I’m Esraa from Gaza. As the war resumes, my family and I are enduring unimaginable suffering. We urgently need food, safety, and basic necessities. Even the smallest act of kindness could make a world of difference.
Please, help us in any way you can 🇵🇸💔.

This supposed ceasefire is a ruse. Israel has continued their genocide with impunity every day since it was declared. They continue to kill adults, children, and babies. They continue to destroy shelters, from buildings to tents. They continue to delay the flow of aid to ensure malnutrition.
While the United States calls this "peace," anyone who speaks to Palestinians in Gaza knows better. Here are five minutes out of Nader's day:
Do you hear the gunfire? Do you hear the terror of occupation? This is not peace. This is genocide.
Nader (@abdalsalam2000) is a teenager in Gaza, fundraising for his family. They urgently need funds to escape this nightmare.
His campaign is #4 on the gazavetters spreadsheet. Please help him and his family!

It's early December. In the northern hemisphere it's getting colder and darker. The winter holidays evoke images of staying cozy indoors, all bundled in warm sweaters, holding steaming mugs, eating hot meals. Many of us have a cultural practice of gift-giving to symbolize an ideal of generosity.
However, the dissonance creeps in. You miss the bus and stand outside in the cold until your fingertips and face begin to hurt, and a shiver enters your chest. You see advertisements for endless products by companies you know profit from genocide. You wonder how cozy or generous any of this really is.
Every time I feel a shiver in my chest, I think of my friends in Gaza. I am living in an apartment with heaters. My friend Fadel is living out of a torn tent in the cold. When I hear about people budgeting for gifts, I think about Fadel trying to decide to use his meager funds on medication or food because there isn't enough for both. I visited my childhood home recently, and I know Fadel's childhood home was bombed with him inside. People around me are planning out travel to see family, and I know he cannot yet afford travel to get urgent surgery to remove shrapnel from his body.
For many of us, this time of year is culturally and economically structured around a particular practice of Christmas that involves the purchase of gifts.
Even for those of us who do not celebrate this holiday have our lives shaped by the pattern of this holiday. It's a time many of our families and loved ones are given overlapping time off from work. It's a time that sellers have sales encouraging us to buy things for each other.
Many people have budgeted all year for gift giving in this month. This is a time when people are ready to part with some money for their loved ones.
That reality does not need to add to consumerism. We can redirect this spirit of financial generosity towards solidarity with Palestine.
If someone asks you what you would like for the holidays this year, you can request that a donation be made to someone in Gaza. If the people in your life who have funds to spend on gifts would not readily do this, then ask them for money so you can pass it along.
My name is Fadel Al-Dane, a Palestinian from Gaza, my age 23-year-old third-year I… Fadel Aldane needs your support for Help Fadel And His F
If you have budgeted for gift giving this year, I hope you will remember Fadel and his family.
Fadel's campaign was verified and shared by @90-ghost and @a-shade-of-blue, and was vetted by @gazavetters (#197 on the gazavetters spreadsheet).
I hope you will send some portion of these funds to them so that they can afford a filling meal, a new tent to stay warm from the cold, and safe travel to an area with a good hospital where he can be treated for his injuries.
If you're feeling the holiday spirit, I hope you can extend your gratitude to Palestinians in need this year. Please donate to Fadels campaign if you can!
Everyone is preparing to celebrate New Year's and Christmas, while here in Gaza we are bracing for harsh weather and a severe storm.
Everyone is sitting comfortably in their warm homes, while we are huddled in our tent, easily blown away by the fierce winds. Everyone else is warm now, but I am shivering from the cold, and the shrapnel lodged in my body is causing me excruciating pain from the bitter cold and constant trembling.
So please, my friends, help us so we can buy a new tent and get me surgery as soon as possible. Don't forget us in your gifts. Please donate.
I deeply appreciate everyone who donates to Fadel.
So often every update from Gaza is terrifying and heartbreaking. It means the world to me on the rare occasion when Fadel texts me with good news about being able to afford the smallest things.
Please help him get what he needs this month. He deserves some good news.
Unfortunately I will die. With a broken heart I tell you that my anemia has reached its most dangerous stage and my body is collapsing little by little.
I am starving and cannot afford food and my parents are both sick. If you are scrolling please donate and share and don’t leave us alone.

Aqsa Durrani is a pediatric doctor and board member of Doctors Without Borders USA, with nearly twenty years of experience in humanitarian projects. Here is her full quote (emphasis mine):
"When I entered Gaza the Israeli military had a rule: I was only allowed to bring in three kilos of food. As I was weighing out protein bars, trying to get under the limit, I said to my husband: 'How sinister is this?' I'm a humanitarian aid worker. Why would there even be a limit on food? I've worked in many places with extreme hunger, but what's so jarring in this context is how cruel it is, how deliberate.
I was in Gaza for two months; there's no way to describe the horror of what's happening. And I say this as a pediatric ICU doctor who sees children die as part of my work. Among our own staff we have doctors and nurses who are trying to treat patients while hungry, exhausted. They're living in tents. Some of them have lost fifteen, twenty members of their families. In the hospital there are kids maimed by airstrikes: missing arms, missing legs, third degree burns. Often there's not enough pain medication. But the children are not screaming about the pain, they're screaming: 'I'm hungry! I'm hungry!" I hate to only focus on the kids, because nobody should be starving. But the kids, it just haunts you in a different way.
When my two months were finished, I didn't want to leave. It's a feeling I haven't experienced in nearly twenty years of humanitarian assignments. But I felt ashamed. Ashamed to leave my Palestinian colleagues, who were some of the most beautiful and compassionate people that I've ever met. I was ashamed as an American, as a human being, that we've been unable to stop something that is so clearly a genocide. I remember when our bus pulled out of the buffer zone. Out the window on one side I could see Rafah, which was nothing but rubble. On the other side was lush, green Israel. When we exited the gate, the first thing I saw was a group of Israeli soldiers, sitting at a table, eating lunch. I've never felt so nauseous seeing a table full of food."
My friend Fadel and his family still struggle to afford food and clean water every week. They feel the pain of this intense hunger.
There are so many sources of pain and suffering. There is the hunger. Then there is the sickness. Fadel's tent is in tatters and the flooding has soaked through his family's mattresses and supplies. They are suffering severe flu and struggling to recover in this cold, wet winter.

Fadel urgently needs to travel out of Gaza to receive surgery. He survived Israelis bombing his home while he was inside, but he was left with shrapnel embedded in his body that cannot be removed with the remaining healthcare resources in Gaza.
He has heard word that the crossing will be opened sometime soon, but openings are always temporary and precarious during this occupation. This means he needs to travel quickly as soon as they open. To do this he needs to raise funds urgently so he can afford travel within this window of time.
Please understand that time is of the essence. Help him receive treatment and help his family to escape to safety.
This is just a small part of what's happening to us here in Gaza. Imagine, we're living in winter, sitting in a tattered tent, constantly leaking water. All our blankets and pillows are soaked, and we're all suffering from colds. Worse still, I've been injured for over 500 days, and metal shrapnel is still embedded in my body. I urgently need surgery, but everyone is ignoring me. There are reports that the Rafah crossing will open this month.
So I desperately need your help to raise the funds for my surgery as soon as possible so I can travel and receive treatment. Please wake up and look at me! Please stand by me! I desperately need your donations for my surgery. Please donate, Please don't ignore me!
Please help my friend Fadel. The more people who can donate even one dollar or euro, the closer Fadel and his family are to real relief and safety. Anything that you can send his way helps a lot.
Please help! Do whatever you can!
very sad and difficult day. Yesterday, the occupation killed my young cousin, who was no more than 16 years old, when he was out collecting firewood so that his family could cook food with the wood...
It didn't end there. My mother and I were forced today to leave soon after the occupation announced that they would divide Gaza and not allow anyone to move around. They forced us to leave and our tears are pouring down our cheeks. How difficult it is.
We are going through difficult circumstances. We are losing loved ones, we are losing our country, our homes, we are separated from the people we love, and we are deprived of good food.
Please help us with whatever you can here. Donate anything. Every donation makes a difference in our lives.
Please, please read this.
My friend Mahrah is grieving, separated from loved ones, separated from her home.
I cannot imagine how difficult it is for her to communicate this pain, especially in a way that can come through translation into English so that you can read it.
Please have compassion and support her.
My wife, @cannilyuncanny, is hosting the GoFundMe campaign for Mahrah's family in Gaza (who have been vetted by @90-ghost and shared by fairuzfan). I can personally promise you that Mahrah receives your donations directly and they sustain her family's survival.
I think it's important now more than ever to understand that the media is always trying to misdirect from the horrific violence going on in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. Horrors are still happening. Bombs are still falling. People still need help.
Please consider donating to my dear friend Nader -- a young man in Gaza right now who's been tirelessly raising funds so his family can eat and afford care. We cannot forget Gazans are people just like us who deserve support in their time of need. FUNDRAISER HERE.
Hello, I will not prolong my speech. Frankly, I do not have the energy to write. You are all seeing, via TV, phone and computer, what is happening in Gaza, broadcast live in the last two days. The situation has become terrifying. Yes, the bombing does not stop. Never, never stops, and everything is close. We are tired of the many appeals and the world is ignoring us. (Please help us, share and donate. We really need assistance.) Donate if you can, please.
once again asking any of followers to help Nader here, nobody deserves to be put through this
During the past three days, it was as if we were literally living in hell. I did not sleep for more than a few hours. I have not witnessed bombing like this since 7/10. It is horrific. I feel as if my heart wants to jump out of my chest and my mind and head are about to explode. It is truly unbearable. Please save us.
We are living under bombardment, amidst hunger, deprivation, and skyr… Nader Family needs your support for Help us overcome all this loss an
I think we have endured enough, and that is enough. We can no longer endure. We can no longer endure. We are tired. Understand this. Stop the war. Stop the war. Stop the war.
