as you guys know my grandparents got scammed almost a month ago, some man told them he was going to send them medical equipment they needed for $500 dollars, we were desperate, not only they lost all the money they had, my grandpa has gotten significantly worse, he's starting to lose vision in his good eye and my grandma is losing mobility as well (evidence), I know I sound annoying always coming here and begging for money for my grandparents and for my college, I don't know how to anticipate the grief, losing my grandpa everyday to his illness, losing my college education cause I can't afford it, in México the situation it's just getting worse and even though I feel lonely I have found a community here and I'm forever grateful for that, even a dollar goes a long way and all the money will go to their medical needs since I'm very sure I won't be able to cover college expenses, please share and donate if you can, you can help via p*ypal or any way you want through ko-fi, here's the link! 💕 thank you sm

its almost as if trumps loss in 2020 was in-fact a bellwether for the continued rise of neo-fascism... its almost like, just maybe, when a liberal party responds to reactionary ideologies with centrism and militant nationalism it doesn't exactly offer a counter to fascism but instead offers nutritive soil for its roots to grow... you could almost argue that a state that extracts its power from violent exploitation will inevitably fall to fascism... perhaps, just maybe, this is the inherent trajectory of a nation built on genocide... weird...
Especially on (US) election Day remember the Palestinian cause. Both candidates participate in a genocide against Palestinians, either win is a loss. You can't celebrate or mourn the results without remembering over 43,000 innocents have been killed thus far as a result of the genocide. A vote for either candidate is a vote for the deaths of Palestinians. Neither one is a moral choice, there is no lesser of two evils. There are two fascists on the ballot and either way we are inherently complicit in this genocide as USAmericans.

Do your part, recognize our complicitness as USAmericans in this genocide. I will be adding more to this post as time goes on. FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸🕊️
the most depressing part is that it's not even kamala's stance on genocide that is costing her the elections. i wish it were. it's people genuinely shifting for trump. but it's the pro-palestine movement that's going to get the blame for it.
obviously she fucked up on that front and on multiple other fronts (an understatement) but if these results have showed anything it's that the alt right white majority will never vote for a black woman even if she were perfect. but liberals will blame arabs for the faults of white nationalism and misogyny. at this point if you're blaming the pro-palestine movement and saying shit like "are you happy now? is this what you wanted?" you're just brimming with anti-arab hatred that you're desperate to release at any given opportunity
so what now? the genocide is still ongoing and the rise of fascism is unimpeded but now people will point to those most affected by it and saying "this is what you wanted, right?" and you and i could spend the next four years arguing and yelling at those people or we can do something that matters.
mahmoud needs to pay his fees in 5 days or he will fail this semester.
amal needs to meet the soaring prices of baby food in gaza for the sake of her daughter maryam.
look out for the vulnerable and watch out for the way people are venting their frustration at fascism by blaming its victims.

Help out but not to the extent of putting myself in danger
I'm ready to put my life on the line if it can help them
Voting ended onOct 29, 2024
Not to get ahead of myself but I don't think many people will choose the last option, yet that's what Mohammed (@ayeshjourney) does everyday for his fellow Palestinians. Not only through his work in the health sector, which is in and of itself extremely dangerous as it involves going into perilous area to help injured people. But also because he is tirelessly working to vet fundraisers on the ground, which also means getting through some of the most targeted areas of Gaza. All to make sure other Palestinians can get their fundraisers shared and brought to attention.
His work is inestimable, that is why we should support him as much as possible. He is now asking for our help : his brother needs to repair his hearing device and get the appropriate medical support due to his hard of hearing condition. On top of that, him and his family are currently displaced, in an area where IOF troops and tanks are stationed, trying to hide from frequent shootings. And now he is getting accused of being a scam by zionists, which is greatly impeding his fundrasing efforts!
If you have chosen the second option in this poll, then please consider helping Mohammed and his family out. Donate any amount you can and share his fundraiser. They need to get to £10k urgently!

Tagging for reach (dm me if you want to be removed) :
only 2 donations in more than 2 hours. Please please continue to help Mohammed Ayesh and his family. He has to log off for a few days because the migraines he has been feeling from sustained nearby tank shellings and missile bombings have started to make him feel disoriented and nauseous.
£11,931 / £12,500 short term goal. That’s £569 needed ASAP. Ayesh has to provide for his younger brother and his surviving family members whilst working on the frontlines as a health care worker. Please help him keep himself, his family, and other Palestinians safe
