For those (esp musicians/producers) who have difficulty joining the dots. Royalties you have earned & are being denied are instead going to the Rogans of this world. So ups to all for helping to create the fuckery we are about to go through (again) & funding war tech etc. stay away from Scumify plse

The IDF didn't just strike near a hospital. They systematically targeted and destroyed the equipment at the only cancer treatment facility in all of Gaza.
