HAPPY HOBBIT DAY!

[yuri-alexseygaybitch]

as capitalism continues to decay, expect the role of celebrities in producing and spreading capitalist-imperialist propaganda to become more and more prominent

[yuri-alexseygaybitch]

Everyone in the notes saying “they’re so stupid” / “they’re just idiot celebrities” etc. - they’re not stupid or incompetent. They’re bourgeoisie professionals who are doing a job for their class and doing it well. This is their role in the political economy. It’s not an aberration or them speaking about shit they don’t understand. They understand what they’re doing perfectly well.

[seluvian]

And what do they all have in common? That's right! They're rich whites. No matter how much you like a celebrity, never forget that the one thing you can always count on white people to do is throw poc under the bus.

It’s always “I stand with Israel” and not “Free Israel” because there’s nothing to free in Israel. Israel is doing the colonising, the killing, the oppressing. Israel has all the political support and resources it needs to perform these crimes.

And it’s always “Free Palestine”, because Palestine is being ethnically cleansed, Palestine is suffering from genocide at the hands of Israel. Palestine has no support or protection from other governments. Palestine is bleeding and it does not have the resources to heal nor protect itself.

Free Palestine.

[miseryunplugged]

hi all, palestine’s going through a mass genocide right now and really needs help, here are a few ways you can do that

palestine children’s relief fund: provide urgent humanitarian care for children in gaza

anera: provide on-the-ground emergency relief

medical aid for palestinians: emergency relief for women and children, psychosocial support, disability help, other medical needs

doctors without borders: medical teams on the ground treating injured palestinians as needed

feel free to add on in the notes, notify me if any of the fundraisers listed arent necessary/actually helpful to donate to, and let me know if anything needs added on/modified

as always, if you cant donate then please share and spread awareness

UPDATE: this post has been edited to remove an organization by the UN (details in notes by @petite-elf )

UPDATE: companies to boycott have been added due to the direct harm they cause towards palestinians (c. @/sleepallsummer, letstalkpalestine on instagram)

Caterpillar: Caterpillar bulldozers are regularly used in the demolition of Palestinian homes and farms and in Israel’s massacres in Gaza

HP: Hewlett Packard helps run the ID system that Israel uses to restrict Palestinian movement

Puma: Puma sponsors the Israel Football Association, which includes teams in Israel’s illegal settlements on occupied Palestinian land.

SodaStream: SodaStream home drinks machines are one of Israel’s best known exports.

Ahava: Ahava cosmetics are another of Israel’s best known export companies.

Sabra: Sabra hummus is a joint venture between PepsiCo and the Strauss Group, an Israeli food company that provides financial support to the Israel Defense Forces.

Motorola: Provides Israeli military, police, prisons and immigration authority with communication technology

OKAY I LOVE THE BAD BATCH EPISODE BUT WE HAVE TO ADRESS THE WHITE WASHING.

OKAY

Kanan Jarrus is a brown man. He’s Latino. Depa Billaba is also a brown desi-middle eastern woman.

For reference this is what Kanan looks like in Rebels:

This is Depa Billaba:

They’re not white.

Now look at them in The Bad Batch:

It feels like they kinda made Depa lighter but at least she’s recognizably desi-middle eastern.

Now KANAN??? THEY MADE THIS WHOLE BOY WHITE AND SOUNDING LIKE A 30 YEAR OLD

THIS IS WHITE WASHING.

Also, while I loved the story line, the comic Order 66 for Kanan was wayyy better.

They also white washed the clones. They are Māori people. Jango Fett is played by a Māori Omega is white and blonde.

Why Star Wars why???? You could have given us a badass brown girl with curly hair and given representation to so many people.

THEY ALSO MADE SAW GERRERA LIGHTER.
