the absolute disdain communists on this site have for artists reeks of petty envy. they seem to have the idea that artists are making $100,000 on patreon by drawing voltron yaoi instead of being a heavily exploited labor force, the majority of which are either artists due to disability or working 2-3 jobs to pay bills and are at constant risk of losing them. like. i think it's just this belief that artists are "pursuing our dreams" and "don't do any difficult work/manual labor" which straight up isn't true, like, i work 12-16 hours a day 7 days a week for my job as a multimedia artist???

people who make $5-15k a year on art are not bougie you have mold poisoning.

This video was recorded by my dear friend, Hashem @hashembadr. He and his family are in northern Ghazzah, living in a home that has been bombed. Hashem's family consists of 26 people, including several children. Affording necessities like food, medicine, and clothing for all of them is very difficult, especially since Israel has cut off aid coming in to Ghazzah.

[Image Description: a collage of three images. The first two images are dated from December 20th, 2023. The first image shows Suham, a young girl with an injured arm, her head and arm covered in blood. The second image is an x-ray showing her broken bone. The third image is dated from March 10th, 2025. It shows Suham standing and holding her arm towards the camera. Her arm has a large scar on it. End description.]

On top of the family's basic survival needs, one of Hashem's nieces, Suham, needs surgery for her injured arm. Her arm was broken near the beginning of the war, and the bone healed incorrectly due to the lack of medical treatment. She needs surgery for her bone to be fixed, but it is very expensive.

Thanks to people's generous donations, Suham was able to recieve some doctors appointments and treatment. However, some of the donations has to be diverted to keeping the entire family alive. Hashem's family still needs £950 more to afford the surgery necessary for Suham's healing.

Hashem and his family need your support. They have survived a genocide, and they deserve help as they recover from all they have lost and endured. Suham needs surgery, and all the family needs food, clothing, and safety. Hashem needs this campaign to raise not just the £950 for Suham's surgery, but also more funds to make sure his entire family's needs are met.

Hashem is an incredibly hardworking and caring man, and he has been working so very hard to care for his family. Please, lend him your support as well so his family can get what they need. Share and donate! Your donations can help them heal and thrive.

Right now, as of about 22:45 GMT on 16 March 2025, Hashem's vetted campaign is at £7,940 / £50,000.

Before he can pay for Siham's surgery, Hashem needs to get his campaign total up to at least £11,000. This means he still needs to raise another £3,060 to get his young niece the treatment she needs!

Here's how you can help Hashem and Siham:
