One time I didnāt and I was broke for like a month but the next time I seen it I rebloged it and a bitch just got 500 out the blue and a 20 gift card
turkey and azerbaijan are attacking armenia right now, and it's 1915 all over again because the world is distracted and people are too busy wondering if they're gonna live or die, and who gives a shit about my country anyway? my mum told me to tell my friends and explain to them what's happening and that we are the victims in this war because azerbaijan is spreading lies and people are believing their lies and i told her, what good is that going to do? do you think anyone's going to come to our aid? is russia going to help us? is america? is england? erdogan said they will finish what their ancestors started, and he means genocide. he means ethnic cleansing. he means to massacre every last one of us. and in doing so admitted to the very same thing turkey has spent 105 years denying. i don't know who to tell and what good telling people will do because we're a small, insignificant country, and we have nothing to offer to the people in power, the handful who rule the world. so i sit here with my pain and i feel helpless. i know there's twitter threads and links to petitions and people being urged to contact their senators, and sorry if im being pessimistic, but azerbaijan has been attacking us for the last 22 years, and though we defend ourselves, we can't do anything to stop them. they've violated ceasefires (and geneva conventions) multiple times. i don't think they'll rest until every last one of us is dead.
we just want peace. we just want to live peacefully. we're not asking for a lot here.
Watching this happen I've been so scared there is going to be another genocide and nobody would notice. My whole life I've hated how forgettable armenian people seem to be to the world. Protect armenian people or rot, please don't turn a blind eye to us again. And same as above, reblog or unfollow.
here are some cold hard facts for those interested:
1. after losing the war in 1994, the az government spent the next nearly 30 years on a) dehumanizing armenians, b) blaming armenians and losing the war for the terrible socioeconomic state of the people in this oil-rich country while president and his family steal all of the money their oil produces, c) pushing armenophobic propaganda on the population since kindergarten age, d) oppressing and humiliating the other ethnic minorities living on its territories, e) regularly violating the ceasefire of 1994 whenever the internal situation get tense and the ppl get angry, f) selectively sending the youths of said ethnic minorities to the bloodiest parts of the frontline whenever said ceasefire violations happen, g) suppressing free speech, arresting journalists, harassing and threatening those who dare to voice their discontent, etc.
2. in early 1920s, josef stalin, in order to appease the new turkish "republic" and its leader ataturk, with the hopes of using turkey as the base for spreading the communist revolution further into asia, passed artsakh (also known as nagorno karabagh) with its 95% ethnic armenian population onto the new created turkic azerbaijan republic (a country that did not exist before 1918, that's what newly created means), despite the opposition from the people of the region in question and the republic of armenia.
3. during the 70 or so years that artsakh was part of the azerbaijan republic as an autonomous region, the gov of azerbaijan did everything they could to a) suppress the development of the region, b) change the demographic of the region by moving turkic population to artsakh
4. in 1980s, the people of artsakh, utilizing their rights stipulated in the soviet constitution, petitioned both moscow and baku to be allowed to reunite with armenia. as a response to this, the azerbaijan government started large-scale repressions against the organizers and activists of the reunification movement. arrests on made up charges, threats and violence followed (more info on all that in the link provided below)
5. the people of artsakh then held a referendum as was their right under soviet constitution, and more than 90% of it's population voted in favor of seceding from the azerbaijan republic. the response to this were the anti-armenian pogroms in baku and sumgait ( https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1990-01-18-mn-305-story.html)
Alexander Gulanerian heard the mob pounding down the hall seconds before his door was broken down and they stormed in, brandishing knives, b
6. all this grew into the first artsakh war, which azerbaijan lost, as mentioned in point 1.
to sum it up: artsakh was never a part of the independent azerbaijan republic, during it's brief 70-year forced az control its indigenous armenian people were oppressed via various government policies, the people of artsakh deserve to live a free and happy life in their homeland, free of threats and fear of annihilation that is sure to happen if azerbaijan takes control of the region
to them, it's just a territory and they want that territory without the people.
for further reading, check out this comprehensive timeline of the artsakh history up to 2017( when it was written)
For centuries the sacred khachkars of Djulfa stood tall along the banks of the River Aras ā hulking and ornately carved 16th-century headsto
while you are at it, read up on the armenian genocide and keep in mind that turkey, specifically for this war, moved syrian jihadists to azerbaijan to fight against armenia and artsakh. read up on the kind of internationally banned ammunition azerbaijan has been using against the civilians in artsakh capital, and then maybe make your judgement.
oh, and if anyone tries to frame this as an islam vs christianity thing, send them to hell, regardless of the side they claim to support, bc this isn't it.
spreading awareness is HUGE because azeris are spreading lies (mainly on twitter bc apparently thats the only social media they're allowed to use atm? i haven't verified this but it checks out with the dictator in powet lol) and it's really really really important for us to counter their lies with FACTS. like there's far few of us and we don't have any bots lmao so it's really hard to get people to listen to us.
cardi b apparently made a post about it, talking about how there's a genocide going on in armenia, and azeris started harassing her so she sort of backtracked and said something like "i didn't know there was two sides to this" and like it's not the only person they've done this to!
this video on twitter actually explains their tactics (the girl in the video is basically translating azeri post) how they target people who speak out in support of armenia and make them rescind their support.
so yeah. it's important for us to fight against the misinformation. and i think i have no respect for any armenian person who chooses to not engage because the internet is our battlefield. this is where we fight because it's the least we can do. (note i said armenian person, because i don't think its fair to ask this of people who don't have a personal stake in this war).
The Miźkmaq people are facing hostility and threats in Eastern Canada over the right to fish to sustain themselves.Ā
This has included:
āIn response to Miākmaq fishers setting up 150 out of their 350 allowed traps, non-Indigenous fishers gathered at the wharf in Digby to protest.ā
āOne of the ways Nova Scotian fishers have found it appropriate to protest Miākmaq harvesting practices has been to chase down boats and fire flares directly at them. There have also been attempts to ram small boats with much larger vessels.ā
Two people being arrested and charged with assault.
āLobster traps in St. Maryās Bay were vandalized, their lines were cut, and the traps were left on the shore.ā
āSome fishers have posted calls on social media to reimplement the Canadian residential school system, and for other harsh treatment of Indigenous peoples and their children.āĀ
A lobster boat belonging to a Miākmaq fisher has been destroyed by a suspicious fire at a wharf in southwestern Nova Scotia.
These people have the right to sustainably fish on their own land and support their livelihoods. Megan Bailey, professor at Dalhousie Universityās Marine Affairs program, an expert, has said that there is no conservation concern as has otherwise been claimed. āThe scale of the livelihood fishery as it exists right now with 350 traps is not a conservation concern.ā
Ways you can support the Miākmaq people (both on this front + other issues):
Treaty Truckhouse Legal Fund - Grassroots Grandmothers, Mi'kmaw Rights Holders and others continue to stand united as water protectors of the Shubenacadie River in the Sipekne'katik District of Mi'kma'ki, where Alton Gas intends to dump salt brine equivalent to 3000 tonnes of hard salt every day.

All yāall white people and non-black poc need to understand something about rioting. Yes, we acknowledge that there are gonna be people who show up just to fuck shit up. Yes, we acknowledge that there are gonna be small businesses that get damaged in the process. We typically try our best to avoid burning and looting places like those because we understand the importance of minority businesses. Many of the riots have been started by white āalliesā, white supremicst, or undercover officers who either donāt understand the intensity of their actions and that theyāll get pinned on the peaceful protesters (mainly talking about the former), or people who truly want to give us a bad reputation. And even if we were the ones starting the riots, so what? The same people who are preaching for us to peacefully protest were probably the same people who gave Colin Kaepernick slack for kneeling during the pledge. Or the same people who threw a hissy fit when the NBA went on strike. Boycotts, kneeling, and strikes are all forms of peaceful protest and usually get dismissed by the media and the people consuming said media. Even the peaceful protest in Portland, Colorado, and New York stopped circulating in the media that much when the BLM ātrendā died down. Peaceful protesting was still going on when many people didnāt know about it, and it just goes to prove my point on how peacfuling protesting doesnāt gain the attention that we need. So get outta here with that bullshit.
Another thing that also pisses me off is how people have the audacity to say āWell if these people werenāt doing anything wrong/If they didnāt have anything to hide, then they shouldnāt have resisted arrest.ā First of all, resisting arrest doesnāt warrant your death. Thatās a fucking no brainer. If you really hate violence that fucking much, then condemn the fucking officers as well as the rioters you moron. Secondly, by saying that, youāre automatically implying that all (or if not majority) of the black people murdered by law enforcement had some sort of criminal record or were hiding something. There is a law that states that you can and have the right to resist unlawful arrest, so Jacob Blake had every right not to be detained by that officer. We donāt have to be hiding something to resist an arrest that we deem (and probably is) unnecessary. Also, by making this assumption, youāre only further backing up the notion that all black people are violent by assuming that they had something to hide and itās also another way to LITERALLY DEFEND MURDERERS. I understand many of the people are convicted felons and that Jacob Blake was charged with domestic abuse, but that does not give you an excuse to shoot them! Any person in their right mind with a knife would KNOW not to pick a fight with someone with a gun, so that argument is already invalid as fuck. Americans are so quick to defend the second amendment yet completely forget or disregard the actual reason for it. It gives us the right to bare arms for protection, which is why many people (regardless of ethnicity) own one. Why is a black man having a gun any different? When many underage teens, including that 17 year old white man who MURDERED TWO PEOPLE, are able to purchase and have firearms in their possession, but black people canāt? It doesnāt matter if theyāre not allowed to, because if weāre playing that card, then many of yāall white folks donāt need to have guns with yāall unstable ass mental health issues.
So, in conclusion, ACAB, show some fucking empathy, and get your head out your asses. Iām fucking done, yāall done pissed me off
Can yāall please boost this. I donāt have many followers and I really want this to be heard and yāall are some of the only people I look up to on this hellhole of a site.

Jorge Gonzalez, suffered a broken neck, and a compressed spine at the hands of 3 sheriff deputies in Texas. He couldnāt even hold his head up for this mugshotā¦so they had to hold it up for him. They actually thought the mugshot was more important than a hospital visit.
After a deputy tripped him he hit his face hard and went unconscious. They tased him couple of times āto wake him upā.
He was left paralyzed neck down, went through a series of surgeries, and was in ICU on the ventilator for over a month after the arrest.
According to the hospital he went over 26 hours in Hidalgo County jail without necessary medical attention that could have saved his life.
