NYC Data Stories: Allyship

For when people say they’re sick of seeing gay stuff everywhere. Suck it up. 4 years. 4 years. And that’s just on the books, it’s legal. It doesn’t stop shitty attitudes, actions, or straight up violence.

This is just the timeline for homosexuality. As of today (July 2019) you can still be fired for being transgender in 26 of the 50 states. You can be evicted for being transgender in 31 of the 50 states. The Stonewall Uprising was started to protect a transwoman being arrested, and more than 140 transwomen have been murdered since 2013.

Two men or two women being able to get married is not the only basis for LGBT+ rights.

Musk's attempt at trolling AOC backfires | Boing Boing

Elon Musk thought he could get the better of AOC after she took him to task for his plan to charge people $8 per month for a blue checkmark.

Elon Musk thought he could get the better of AOC after she took him to task for his plan to charge people $8 per month for a blue checkmark.

AOC initially tweeted: "Lmao at a billionaire earnestly trying to sell people on the idea that "free speech" is actually a $8/mo subscription plan"

Space Karen got busy researching AOC's website store and found a $58 sweatshirt. He took a screenshot, drew a crude green circle around the price tag, and added a chin-stroking emoji. Can't you just imagine him up there in his jet, tapping away on his phone with a self-amused grin stretched so tightly across his face that his hair plugs are ready to pop from his scalp?

AOC replied, "My workers are union, have full healthcare + benefits like childcare help, and every one is paid a living wage. Proceeds go to community acts like tutoring underserved kids. You're a union buster with an ego problem who pockets the change from underpaying and mistreating people."

The Right are emotionally stunted. They stopped evolving in grade school and can't assimilate to our complex world.

Rather than listen and learn, they yell in ignorance.

Punching down is connected to their shame.

PAY FUCKING ATTENTION TO IRAN

I am FURIOUS and BAFFLED that major news outlets are not covering what’s going on in Iran right now and I don’t fucking have a twitter so I can’t make noise over there, even though apparently that’s the only social media platform people pay attention to????

Students at Sharif University of Technology in Tehran have been one group of many students and professors across the nation protesting, and NOW, the regime’s security forces have LOCKED THE STUDENTS IN THE UNIVERSITY AND ARE ARRESTING THEM IN MASSES AND SHOOTING AT THEM IF THEY TRY TO ESCAPE OUT THE GATES.

You have DOZENS of teenagers running for their lives in the dark while their parents and fellow citizens are protesting outside the gates chanting “free the students”. And NOW, the they’re sending more repression forces to the University!!

A BBC article says it’s unable to verify the events at the university in the same space it writes that VIDEO FOOTAGE on social media shows students RUNNING FROM SECURITY FORCES ON CAMPUS.

THE AUDACITY.

Share as much as you can about this on all of your social media platforms. Tag as many human rights activists and groups and news outlets you can think of to get the information out there. And if you have any friends or family in Tehran, let them know if they already don’t that people are mobilising to the university. Help the students!! Use the hashtags that are going around on social media (#mahsaamini, #jinaamini, #opiran, #iranprotests, to name a few).

I’m adding photos from instagram that give more information. Follow @1500tasvir on instagram for on the ground footage, @middleeastmatters, and @golfarahani to name a few.

People protect a woman who is burning her scarf

[cop-disliker69]

A little context for those who don’t know: recently a woman was arrested by the Iranian morality police (who enforce mandatory headscarves and other theocratic policies) and died in custody. This has sparked massive protests across Iran.

[qwertyu858]

And she wasnt even arrested for not using the hijab but bc she was using it "incorrectly". So she was even following the law and still got killed.

They have also tried to claim that she died from natural causes, even when she was 22. And they realesed a very fake video as evidence of that.

[aftabkaran]

THIS. For the love of every thing that is good, if you considered yourself a feminist or a progressive of any sort, support Iranian women. It’s not complicated what is happening.

[liberalsarecool]

This is as disgusting as patriarchy can get.

please support the break free from plastic act!

(above link directs you to write a letter!)

the break free from plastic act would functionally hold manufacturers & corporations responsible for the costs involved in recycling and waste management. obviously, corporations are most influenced by money - this is the only way to enact real change on many of these companies.

the act would also lead to phasing out single use plastic, establishing new recycling standards, and investing in new recycling facilities.

no matter who you are, this is important! please take a few minutes to write a letter in support.
