you are allowed to be proud of the victories that no one else can see. like showering without completely hating your body, not breaking into tears at the thought of the future, talking yourself out of a dark mindset, calming yourself down in public, or like waking up every single day and choosing life. be proud of the progress no matter if it is visible for others or not. you’re doing great, keep up the good work!

"hope this email finds you well"

how the email found me :

basketcasemp3

downsizing seasons from 22 episodes to 13 to 8. describing miniseries as "8 hour movies". loudly declaring that shows with 20+ episodes per season cannot truly be good. complaining that "it couldve been a movie". complaining about filler episodes. complaining about bottle episodes. complaining about episodes that prioritize character over plot. fr i think y'all just dont like television

whispering “no” while reading a book because you know that the character’s about to make a fool out of themselves and kill you with second hand embarrassment

Please follow @ m7mdkurd on Twitter and on Instagram. A constant voice for Palestinians as he is also living there as well. He is a poet, and a person with hopes and dreams just like everyone else. There are constant updates through his social media, and I believe it is very important for people to actually see what’s going on through the lens of an actual Palestinian person.

The censoring of any Palestinian content is in full swing right now especially on Instagram and tiktok, please continue to seek out news and info :

This is what the US means when they say “Israel has the right to self-defense”

The ages of these children was from 5 to 15 years old and all of them were killed inside their own homes.

The US plans on giving Israel an extra 750 millions in weapons (all from US citizens tax money) for even more self-defense this month, if you’re American then please contact as many representatives as you can and keep sharing what’s going on to put even more pressure on them.

just an fyi

israel has targeted communications and internet networks in gaza which effectively cuts of palestinians from the rest of the world

a significant drop in content across social media coming out of gaza in these last few days doesn’t mean the violence has stopped or that it’s over, it just means more voices are being silenced. it’s an active campaign by the israeli government to turn the world’s attention away. don’t let it fool you.

When discussing Palestine/Israel, “It’s an extremely complicated situation” is always code for one of two things:

“I’m a wolf in sheep’s clothing trying to obfuscate the reality that Israel is a settler-colonial entity engaged in daily terrorism and ethnic cleansing by confusing you and reducing your confidence to speak openly about this topic”

or

“I have no idea wtf I’m talking about”

There is absolutely no in-between

“…because the situation is crystal clear. One of the main successes of Israel propaganda is to convince the world that the situation is complicated. But it’s far from being complicated. It’s probably the least complicated conflict in the world today. And it’s all about, basically, those who have the power, those who oppress and subjugate and tread over the indigenous people of the land, who have been oppressed and subjugated and expelled from the land. And this is what it’s about. The situation here is not very different, other than the way it is perceived in the world and among Israeli society themselves.”

Aaaand sign off. Mainstream Western media, Ladies and Gentlemen. Believe it or not, this reporter was actually somewhat professional by the typical standards we see from channels like CNN. I’ve seen much worse.

Watch the full interview here: https://www.instagram.com/p/COuuzG1l_yj/

Kurd’s comment on the interview: “I knew this interview was going to have a biased, inaccurate framing, and it did from the start. But I made sure I course corrected. I’m happy that you cannot edit a live interview, because there’s no way I could have spoken so bluntly about the myth of “both sides” and Israeli “self-defense” had this been prerecorded. Thanks CNN for taking my testimony about settler-colonialism.“

Here are some backups (sadly in bits only), since some social media - like Instagram, conveniently deletes some posts about what’s happening in Palestine.

The man name is Muhammad el Kurd, he’s one of the residents in Sheikh Jarrah who are facing ethnic cleansing right now, he has just been arrested from his own home by Israeli forces after his interview went viral.

The only reason this interview went viral, is because it’s the first time a major American network like CNN had interviewed an actual Palestinian that’s directly affected by the violence, when all the other networks were busy interviewing Israeli ambassadors about their side of the story.

Thanks to the fact that this was a live interview, Muhammad managed, without being cut off or having his word edited out, to list all of Israel’s war crimes and straight out called it what it is “settler-colonialism” as well as calling out the US’s historic bias toward Israel.

Muhammad el Kurd, as well as many other Palestinian activists, are regularly arrested and detained by the only democracy in the Middle East (Israel) if them speaking out against the crimes/abuse they face gets too much attention.

If you live in a place with free speech then use it and speak up, because Palestinians living under the Zionist occupation don’t have that luxury.
