i won't ever condemn the 7th of October. i think anyone who was having a party or peaceful life near a concentration camp had it coming. and i think whoever still calls it a "horrific attack" has no idea what palestinians have been going through for more than 70 years

on another note i know i’ve ranted about this before but im mad about it again
true crime has done irreparable fucking damage to middle class white women
every time i see some middle class white mom of two saying “girlies! you need to get a visible tattoo because then a rando won’t try to snatch you in broad daylight in the middle of the walmart checkout to put you into sex trafficking!” i get pissed off because you are NOT the primary target of trafficking! poor children of colour in underdeveloped countries, indigenous women, sex workers, these are the people in danger!
true crime podcasts always talk about the rare instance a middle class white woman is taken and so these true crime girlies only ever hear about it happening to women like them and start thinking they’re the main target, but if there were a true crime podcast for every poor non-white child who has been trafficked there wouldn’t be enough data centres in the entire world to hold them all! the fact that white women are the focus of these things is because society only gives a shit about white women, and turns a blind eye when women of colour are the ones being victimized!
i’m not saying that middle class white women are completely safe in society, far from it. but the fact that these podcasts prioritize stories of white women is because of white supremacy, and comes with the underlying sentiment of “these stories matter because they happened to the group of people it’s not supposed to happen to”, and the way white women are eating it up and making themselves the centre of the issue is a huge fucking problem
And white women most likely are going to become victims of violence from WHITE MEN, yet they'll stand there and clap over shit like the Laken Riley act just to confirm their role in maintaining white supremacy.
my notifications are once again devolving into a spirited debate about the ethics of actions that could potentially make someone uncomfortable, and at risk of sounding like someone about to get a lot of irate anons I think we're frankly giving way too to much moral weight to hypothetical discomfort
the thing about discomfort is that it's an extremely nebulous category that can be triggered by virtually anything and that's far too broad a category to have any inherent moral quality to it. like. my mom was mad uncomfortable when I stopped shaving. that didn't mean I was doing violence against my mom it just meant she needed to get over herself. many such cases it must be said.
there's not a single example I could give that's better than this
Today is the 26th of July, 2024, exactly 71 years since the failed assault on the Moncada barracks in Santiago de Cuba. This failure would later be commemorated by Fidel Castro and his vanguard revolutionary movement as their very name, the name with which they won independence for Cuba from its dictator, Fulgencio Batista, and it's imperial overlord, the United States.
Cuba is still not free, however; crippling US sanctions have hindered its development, stressed their society, and needlessly taken lives. This embargo, now in its 65th year, must end. If you live in the United States, you bear a special responsibility to use every means of pressure, collectively, to pressure your government and your ruling class to end this embargo and finally free Cuba.

Me checking if everyone else is vibing with song I put on
The people of Cuba will not be broken! USSR, 1960.
happy july 26 y hasta la victoria siempre
On July 26, 1953, Fidel Castro and his small guerrilla band struck the first blow of the Cuban Revolution with the attack on the Moncada Army Barracks.
Although Fidel was captured and many compatriots killed, the action inspired people throughout the island to rise up against the hated U.S.-backed Batista regime. Less than six years later, the revolution triumphed.

In another life I would have loved to poison the abusive husbands of the women in my village
Not mincing worlds in the slightest, calling a Latin American country a nazi habitat as a yank with zero clue to where that propaganda originated from is incredibly racist. It's one thing to cheer for a sports team, it’s another deal completely to think you have the right to look down on an imperialized country for imaginary nazi connections that you swallowed wholesale from Operation Paperclip nazi haven itself
I'm sorry but are you okay? What are you talking about?
If this is about Argentina then you should probably know that it's not propaganda. Argentina was a refuge for Nazis. It's well documented. Please do yourself a favor and look it up
Argentina shouldn't be a Nazi habitat if it doesn't like being called one. It's been their policy since basically the 40s.
Juan Peron was on his knees begging for Nazis to come to Argentina. He literally orchestrated ratlines lol. And today you guys are giving refuge to IDF war criminals on the run.
Also who is forcing a majority of Argentinians to vote for Javier Milei???
Argentines are so racist they're even turning their wines white.
July 25, 2026 - The Cockroach Janta Party declared victory, after Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan was forced to resign.
What began with a leaked medical entrance exam grew into a broader movement, with five straight weeks of protest. Despite the injurries they suffered at the hands of the police, and the threat of another police crackdown, the Cockroach Janta Party vowed to continue to demand accountability over education, corruption and unemployment outside India's Parliament, the day before the resignation, when this video was made.

europeans be like “omg north americans are so racist it’s horrible” and then elect fascists
I would like to emphasize that I agree with all of these tags by the way. My post wasn't aiming to pin all of Europe's grotesque racism on the new elections.
A few weeks ago I was at a board game night with some of my old classmates from various mainland European countries. They started talking about how horrible Trump's treatment of immigrants is and how they're so glad to be in Europe where nothing like that is happening right now. I asked them what they thought about the fact that their own governments were complicit in turning the Mediterranean into a mass grave of asylum seekers, and some of them legitimately didn't even know and were surprised to hear that their own governments had enacted policies that caused the deaths of thousands of asylum seekers.
Even here in Iceland, almost nobody has been talking about the fact that some of the far right populist parties have legitimately been talking about wanting to establish detainment camps to keep asylum seekers in.

This post is a few months old now, and the bit about Iceland is now outdated, because Alþingi (the Icelandic parliament) passed the bill approving the detention center for asylum seekers. It will be legal to handcuff and detain children there.
Never let anyone from Europe feed you the lie that racism and fascism are unique to North America in the 21st century.
This post made racists angry enough to harass me over it, which all that's going to do is make me bring this post back and reblog it more.
The mayor who condemned Cuba, Venezuela and the Palestinian resistance, and protected the shuls that were selling Palestinian land is not gonna arrest Netanyahu even if it was within his power.
BRENNAN: You were an early supporter of Graham Platner. Do you regret not acting earlier for him to drop out given the warning signs?
BERNIE SANDERS: No, I don't think so
Can we finally send Sanders to a farm in Vermont never to be heard from again.
Lionel Messi has quietly built relationships with companies and security firms closely linked to Israel's military-intelligence establishmen
As the world’s foremost football star, Lionel Messi is understandably protective of his image. The Argentinian forward carefully picks and chooses whom he is associated with, and has signed lucrative long-term deals with enormous global brands, such as Adidas, Pepsi, and Mastercard. That is why many were surprised when, in 2020, he announced a partnership with OrCam, a relatively small Israeli A.I. firm that makes wearable artificial vision devices (similar to Google Glass). OrCam markets itself as helping visually impaired people live more fulfilling lives. Messi became its global brand ambassador and the face of the company.
[...]
The Argentinian has made multiple visits to Israel during his career. In 2013, he and his club, F.C. Barcelona, went to Israel and Palestine on a supposed “Peace Tour.” During his trip, he met and talked with Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres, and glad-handed with IDF soldiers. He also donned a yarmulke and visited the Western Wall, the holiest site in Judaism. Even after leaving, however, Messi takes a small part of Israel with him everywhere he goes. His security is handled by an elite force of former Israeli agents, who plan his every move, especially internationally. He takes his security very seriously, even missing his sister-in-law’s wedding in Argentina due to safety concerns. Those same Israeli forces were in charge of security at his own 2017 wedding, ESPN reports, although it did not detail whether those agents are from the Mossad, Shin Bet, or an elite commando group.
This is BS that has been debunked a million times. Messi and the Argentina NT refused to play against Israel and Messi went to Israel in a peace tour where he visited Palestine too. Get all the facts from reliable sources, not from sketchy opinion pieces.
So you are ignoring the fact that he invested a lot of money in Israel-linked startups and has former IOF vets in his security team. Gotcha, you're a zionist too.
Not to mention that his visit to Occupied Palestine is hosted by Zionist settlers and Israel. You're a zionist and I don't argue with zionists.
Conflating a paid endorsement deal for an accessibility device with "investing money" is factually incorrect, and claiming bodyguards hired from a private agency reflect an athlete's personal political ideology is an association fallacy. Pointing out real context doesn't make someone a Zionist, it just means they prefer facts over sensationalism.
On top of that, MintPress News (and specifically writer Alan MacLeod) frequently uses this narrative strategy: taking baseline facts—like standard private security hires or tech founders having mandatory military service in Unit 8200—and weaving them into sensationalized claims of state or intelligence ties to target public figures, media outlets, and tech platforms.
Not only that you're a zionist but you're also an idiot.
Guy who refuses to play against Israel has no issue taking a photo op with a genocidal war criminal
Argentine Maccabee here could be caught naked in bed molesting children and his countrymen will still go out of their way to defend him. Argentine never beating the nazi allegations (because theyre true).
