Gaza is just 1 big concentration camp.

Israel has had concentration camps for Palestinians in some shape or form since its founding in 1948.

This Ace Week lets not forget the oppression Asexual folks face

80% of Asexuals have experienced sexual violence

50% of Aces arent out to doctors & 20% say being out negatively impacted their care

Only 25% of Aces are out to friends

10% of Aces are offered conversion therapy

Hillary and Bill Clinton enslaved incarcerated Black folks at the Governor’s mansion.
One unusual aspect of living in the Arkansas governor's mansion was getting to know prison inmates who were assigned to work in the house and the yard. When we moved in, I was told that using prison labor at the governor's mansion was a longstanding tradition, which kept down costs, and I was assured that the inmates were carefully screened. I was also told that onetime murderers were by far the preferred security risks. The crimes of the convicted murderers who worked at the governor's mansion usually involved a disagreement with someone they knew, often another young man in their neighborhood, or they had been with companions who had killed someone in the course of committing another crime. I had defended several clients in criminal cases, but visiting them in jail or sitting next to them in court was not the same as encountering a convicted murderer in the kitchen every morning. I was apprehensive, but I agreed to abide by tradition until I had a chance to see for myself how the inmates behaved around me and my family. I saw and learned a lot as I got to know them better. We enforced rules strictly and sent back to prison any inmate who broke a rule. I discovered, as I had been told I would, that we had far fewer disciplinary problems with inmates who were in for murder than with those who had committed property crimes. In fact, over the years we lived there, we became friendly with a few of them, African-American men in their thirties who had already served twelve to eighteen years of their sentences.

Things that the left has decided are okay in the past week:
- Animal abuse (Hasan)
- Worker abuse (Katie Porter)
- Victim blaming sexual assault victims (Platner)

Y’all need to get it together. What’s even the point of the left if we don’t call out abusers in our own circles.

Palestinians have the right to resist colonial occupation and genocide.

Always did, always will.

It’s self-defense.

Slavery never ended (prison slavery with an incarcerated population that is disproportionately Black).

Jim Crow never ended (voter suppression continues, de facto school segregation continues, cities remain segregated)

Lynchings never stopped.

Wait until the β€œtrans women can’t have periods because they don’t have a uterus” crowd finds out that cis women who have had their uteruses removed often report still experiencing period symptoms after.

(All without the bleeding component of course).

I don’t think we’re concerned enough about the fact that a study found AIs would attempt to murder humans to avoid being shutdown.

On this day 3 years ago a shooter committed an attack on a queer bar in Bratislava, Slovakia which left 2 folks dead, 1 injured & many more traumatized

This sort of violence is what happens when fascist rhetoric goes unchecked. Hate speech is violence & shld be treated as such

Happy Coming Out Day πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ Always remember that there’s no β€œright” time or way to come out

You can come out when you’re 60

You can come out when you’re 6

You can come out again if you realize you identify as a different label

All our journeys are different & that’s okay πŸ’—

This National Coming Out Day we need to shine light on the forced outing school policies that lead youth to be outed to their parents before theyre ready, or before theyre certain that theyre in a safe environment to come out

These policies get folks kicked out, abused, & killed

This Coming Out Day I’m sending love to those who:
- Are out and proud
- Were outed before being ready
- Are questioning
- Aren’t safe to come out
- Aren’t ready to come out

Whatever your experience may be, I hope you have an amazing day πŸ’—πŸ’—

Polyamory β‰  polygamy.

Polygamy is an abusive (usually religion-based) practice.

Polyamory is not.

Learn about the Belgian Congo genocide
Learn about the Armenian genocide (ongoing)
Learn about the Jeju genocide
Learn about the East Timor genocide
Learn about the Rwandan genocide
Learn about the Maya genocide (ongoing)

Learning about past genocides is important too.
