I’m sure everyone is sick of seeing political posts, this isn’t political, it’s a humanitarian crisis! And it’s not only happening “somewhere else” anymore!
Armenians are being attacked in the streets of my country!!Why is there not national outrage, or a movement rising up?? Where is anyone outside of the Armenian population screaming for equality? A genocide is literally taking place RIGHT NOW but you all would rather get upset and put your energy into candidates who are literally doing nothing of substance to help this situation while schools, hospitals and civilian homes are destroyed.
In 1915 no one cared about Armenia either, they watched as these same instigators marched women, children and elderly out into the desert with the sole intention of none of them making it back home, this is after murdering the men and those strong enough to fight back in front of their families. The term genocide was coined solely because of this tragedy! An entire culture almost wiped from the planet, and people still say we are overreacting!
Don’t allow this to happen again, don’t be someone who sits back as an entire country and culture are facing the threat of a SECOND GENOCIDE!!!! Please, wake up, do something, spread the news, because it could be me or my family being targeted tomorrow.
i say this as the descendant of two holocaust survivors: it is vital to remember now that hitler rationalized the holocaust because no one cared about the armenian genocide, either. for once in history, pay collective attention before a mass tragedy occurs. (again. and again and again.)
The IDF used yesterday's confusion towards the elections to hide the fact they bulldozed an entire Palestinian village to promote annexation, which is a war crime and one of their many ways to go about ethnically cleansing us.
Bulldozers, diggers demolish Palestinian village of Khirbet Humsa, leaving 74 people, including 41 minors, homeless.
Israel’s army has demolished homes of nearly 80 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. Eighteen tents that housed 11 families in the northern village of Khirbet Humsa were razed late on Tuesday. [...]
A total of 74 people were displaced, more than half of which were minors, according to B’Tselem, an Israeli anti-occupation non-government organisation. [...] The bulldozers and diggers also demolished sheds used as livestock enclosures, portable toilets, water containers and solar panels, on top of confiscating vehicles and tractors belonging to some of the residents.
[A resident] said his family had lived in the area for generations and accused Israel of trying to “empty the Jordan Valley of its Palestinian population”. [...] “Clearly, the intention is to force residents off the land by creating a man-made humanitarian disaster. But residents have told us they have nowhere to go,” said on Twitter Sarit Michaeli, international advocacy officer for the B’Tselem, adding that this was the first demolition in seven years of an entire herder community. [...]
The Jordan Valley is home to approximately 60,000 Palestinians, according to the UN, but nearly 90 percent of the land is part of what is known as Area C, the three-fifths of the West Bank that is under complete Israeli control.
It includes closed military areas and about 50 agricultural settlements housing some 12,000 Israelis. [...] Almost 800 Palestinians, including 404 minors, have already lost their homes in 2020. Throughout the entire previous year, 677 lost their homes, up from 387 in 2018 and 521 in 2017.
I haven’t cried like this is a long time😢. Nigeria is burning.
Today, 10/20/2020 the Nigerian government sent the military to kill unarmed innocent civilians, a bloody massacre.
Every single drop of innocent Nigerian blood spilled will judge Buhari, Sanwo-Olu and Tinubu. They will never know peace. The blood of the innocent will curse them. They will suffer severely before they die.
The government has turned off the lights and removed all the CCTV cameras, they did this before the military surrounded the protesters. They did it intentionally because they didn’t want the world to see their evil deed. Some people were able to go live on instagram, so we could see, but now the government has shut down all signals to the area so there is no service. All Lagos state emergency lines are off. The soldiers are blocking ambulances from going in to rescue those that have been shot and injured.
It is 10pm in Nigeria, these soldiers are still killing civilians.
They’ve arrested DjSwitch. She live streamed the whole thing. They’ve arrested her and taken her to an unknown location. The soldiers were instructed to shoot her on sight.
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.
hey a family friend is in an ICE detention center about to be deported and he really needs money for a lawyer! i’m going to reblog with a link to donate because i hear tumblr fucks with posts with links
to clarify, his parents came to the states when he was a small child so he doesn’t have any contacts if he gets deported, all of his friends and family are in the united states. i know everyone is really short on money but if you have something to spare, anything helps! everyone is worried for him, he’s stuck in a detention center during a pandemic, if you can’t donate i totally understand, please don’t put yourself in a bad situation, but sharing this would be really appreciated!
look i really don’t feel like it’s my place to share darion’s entire life story here but since it matters apparently, his mother and father are both dead and his only living blood relative is his little brother (who was born on american soil, so he’s a citizen but not darion)
for people asking for info on how to help outside of facebook, here’s some i’ve received from people closer to him!:
“If you want to pass on the ICE account info, the online is accesscorrections.com, the inmate info is Darion Sears, A#27549306 and he is at the Northwest Processing Center. There is also a US toll-free number (866)345-1884 which I found to be confusing as all hell"
thank you all so so much for spreading this, it really means a lot

I’ve created the blog @havenscloset where you can look through a list of free clothes that I’m giving away.
My goal is to provide good, feminine clothes to girls who are early in their transition, cannot buy feminine clothes for fear of being outed, or cannot otherwise afford them.
I will be adding more items and accessories in the future!
the Lebanese red cross is a charity that many Lebanese citizens endorse and are asking for others to donate to. As of right now (11:30 EST on the fifth), it’s the most up-to-date info I can find.
If you don’t know what’s up, Beirut suffered a chemical explosion the size of a small nuke (which is still fucking huge.) They have a host of other serious and deadly crises (humanitarian/political/social) going on right now, too, and the explosion destroyed their main port, where a lot of their trade and necessary supplies (such as medical supplies) come in.
Please, if you can, help Lebanon recover from this blow and tackle the rest of their problems. They need help.
if one more nonamerican calls americans unclean or stupid or some shit for dying of rona when our government is actively trying to murder the most vulnerable of our population by using them as expendable cogs in their minimumwage fueled capitalistic machine im going to turn into one of those bugs bunny w gun memes
...WOULDN'T BE AS MUCH OF A PROBLEM IF PEOPLE ACTUALLY HAD TO SIT THEIR ASS AT HOME BY LAW, AND GOT PAID ENOUGH MONEY TO DO SO
Instead, we are given NO laws with teeth requiring people to stay home except for the essentials, NO federal laws requiring masks (with some state governors banning mask requirements), and NO stipend for staying home, which is on purpose, because they want us DESPERATE to go back out and work. DURING A PANDEMIC.
THIS IS ALMOST ENTIRELY A GOVERNMENT-TRYING-TO-MURDER-US-FOR-PROFIT ISSUE.
Shit-for-brains Becky with no mask working at Target wouldn't be near as much of a problem IF TARGET WAS CLOSED AND SHE WAS GIVEN ENOUGH MONEY TO STAY THE FUCK AT HOME.
Martha Lorena was fired from her janitorial job at Greene Kleen on July 7th. Their reason? “Unauthorized microwave use.”
Martha Lorena believes she was fired for attempting to organize a union and demanding better working conditions.
Do not let Greene Kleen get away with firing worker leaders. Call Greene Kleen and tell them to hire Martha Lorena back! (305) 234-2981! (script below the cut)
Greene Kleen’s receptionist will be rude. Know that while it’s 30 seconds of discomfort to you, it’s something Martha and her coworkers deal with every day. Furthermore, it’s why they need a union.
so 87 people protesting her death have been charged with felonies but the 3 cops who murdered her have had no repercussions?
call the attorney general, daniel cameron, to demand that the officers who murdered breonna taylor – brett hankison, jonathan mattingly, and myles cosgrove – be prosecuted immediately: (502) 696-5300 then press 1. or send an email to the mayor, greg fischer, to demand they be fired: [email protected].
Also people using Breonna Taylor’s name for likes. Posting a picture of yourself and captioning it “anyways Breonna Taylor” is so insensitive to her and the people that love her. It’s become dehumanizing to use it in that sense where you actually don’t give a shit but need clout 🙄 like she was a real person, with real feelings and a real life and you’re gonna use her life and what happened to her as clout? Disgusting.
More than 1/8th of the White Mountain Apache Tribe has tested positive for Covid-19.
They have been hit EXTREMELY hard and I have seen no posts going around talking about it. It is one of the hardest hit places in ARIZONA, a state that already has horribly high case numbers.
They have a Covid relief gofundme. Please donate if you can and spread this if you can't.
The White Mountain Apache Tribe COVID-19 relief fund has been… White Mountain Apache Tribe needs your support for White Mountain Apache Trib
