Still stuck!!! Just £700 left on yesterday’s goal! 💔
We are in urgent need of protection and a safe place to live. We’re raising support to help us escape danger and rebuild our lives in safety. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to security and hope. 💛

I stand with Eslam — her account @soma-eslam.bsky.social was unfairly suspended. Please email [email protected] and ask Bluesky to restore it. Every message counts — let’s help her get her voice and community back.
Every time I speak with Eslam she asks me to help getting her @soma-eslam.bsky.social account restored. She had a whole community on Bluesky and it was unfairly taken from her. If you want to email [email protected] to ask for it to be restored it would maybe be helpful ❤️
“Bored” is an interesting way to describe being brutalized by militarized police and driven back to work due to no healthcare or safety net.

Here is Jamal from Gaza whose family lost everything and he is trying with all his might to rebuild their lives and help them with the crazy costs in Gaza and travel outside Gaza when the crossings open. I hope you support us. Your little support, even if it is $5

Help Jamal’s family leave the war zone and rebuild their life!

Never claimed otherwise, just sick of the hot takes that Americans have not done any sustained protests.

You knew Eslam The Artist when she had an account, that broke no rules but was suspended, taking away access to her friends, she's so young and responsible for her family trapped in Palestine. She has sacrificed her wellbeing to fight, you can help ease that burden. Donate. Share.

Eslam has been banned multiple times from this site. At this point, I can't help but see it as active malice. She's escaped from Gaza to Egypt, but the rest of her family is still in Gaza and needs help. You can donate to her here:

So Occupy, the Palestine encampments, and the free zones created and defended during the George Floyd protests didn’t happen?

"how could people look at Trump and think he is a good businessman because he played one on TV?" idk maybe the same reason we evidently associate being hot with virtue

Please support Lubna and her family ❤️🙏 They have been a member of this community for a long time now (despite having accounts removed by bluesky)

Giving up on people because you don't want to do anything to help is a really awful way to be, but also they will come for us too you idiots.

"we are each other’s

harvest:

we are each other’s

business:

we are each other’s

magnitude and bond."
"The fights for trans rights and Palestinians are over and we lost" is something I'm seeing over and over from cis white progressives. And I'm seeing variations of this popping up about racial justice, marriage equality, and disability rights too.

Sorry, but fuck that.
Also, sell your house if you’re so principled. You park your privileged ass in a vacation house a US resident could be living in, yet you act like your pussy hat protests make you anything less than a capitalist. Go on with being the voice of the “rest of the world.”
You “live in Canada”? Not you “are Canadian”? Sure sounds like a wealthy white US citizen hiding in Alberta.

Get off your high horse and worry about the fascism rising in your own province. No one’s coming to save a scolding bitch.
Were you planning to start soon?

This is how ICE drove by protesters yesterday. A row of state police separated protesters and ICE vehicles.
