i hope whoever actually shot that CEO is having a good day.

[ID: Tumblr tags reading: look the jokes are great, the commentary is often valuable, but, luigi mangione, is very obviously being framed by the most corrupt police force in the states, like, literally, so blantantly [blatantly], he is innocent, both by the legal definition of he has not been charged with any crime, and by the common sense definition, he was 'caught with the coat the gun and the backpack', that was also left at the scene of the crime, and a note saying basically 'LOL yeah i did it and i did it all by myself i am guilty guilty guilty', on his person, a manifesto addressed to the public, not left at the scene with the monopoly money or the bullet casings, which are the real manifesto BTW, don't be dumber than a cop, he's innocent, and getting tricked by the police is embarassing.

Idk like I think there's a really misogynist way that women are expected to consider being murdered and assaulted as like 1000x worse than anything else that could happen and do everything possible to avoid it and like it's unarguably bad! But constantly whenever I mention going hiking or whatever people are like 'omg you're going camping alone as a woman??? what if you get murdered?????' Actually by far the way I am most likely to die doing that is... some sleep deprived or drunk driver crashing into me on the way there! But no one tells you to avoid driving, meanwhile there's so much pressure on women to like, always stay in other crowded super safe areas or at home to Protect Their Virtue and it's like lol I would actually rather live an interesting life doing things that I enjoy

No seriously because every Palestinian with israeli citizenship I've met have talked about how their lives have gotten worse and how people from their communities are getting arrested because their socials are monitored and increasingly facing violence. Knowing and meeting this palestinian demographic it's so frustrating that their voices are drowned out by Israeli zionists that love to tokenize them

[ID: Post from X commenting on a quoted post.

The post being quoted is a cut-off blue check post from Hen Mazzig @ HenMazzig that reads: "21% of Israel's population is Arab and Muslim.

"Every sign in Israel is written in Hebrew and Arabic (and often English). [Show more]"

The post commenting is by Sheera Talpaz @ Snarkademic from March 22, 2025 and reads: "If it were true that Palestinian citizens of Israel were treated as equals of Jewish citizens, you'd hear it directly from more than a handful of them."

[ID: Two posts on X by Fifty Shades of Wh... @ DaveNewWorld_2 that together read: A man in Missouri spent 17 months in jail after an AI facial recognition program misidentified him as a suspect. He was finally freed when prosecutors admitted there was no evidence. Our fascist police state abducted a man and tortured him because a computer told them to.

Getting locked up for 17 months because of AI is so messed up. It should send chills down your spine that this can happen in the US. Wrongful imprisonment causes significant emotional distress, job loss, PTSD, and reputational damage. The victim deserves a huge settlement.

So America wants to deport all its Palestinians, but Palestinians cannot return. ????

[ID: Twitter thread by lina 🇵🇸 @LinaPosting from October 24, 2023 that reads: a seeming contradiction in zionist thought is whether or not Gaza counts as a state. if Gaza is not a state, but is in fact a territory controlled by Israel, Israel's actions toward it do not count as retaliation against a government, but against a civilian population (1/x)

and is a retaliation against a civilian population within its own jurisdiction. if Gaza is a state, then Israel's blockade and sieges of Gaza are in of themselves a declaration of war, and would be if done against any other country.

this kind of 'quasi-state' status Zionists seem to be projecting has no basis in law and is self contradictory. Either Gaza is a state, in which case its rights and sovereignty are aggrieved, or it is not a state, in which case as a territory it is supposed to be administered

in accordance with international law as an occupied territory, which it is not.

Zionists want Gaza to be a state for the purposes of an 'invasion' of Israel, but not to be a state for the purposes of the multitude of realities which would be a provocation of war if the former case were true. An occupied population cannot conduct an 'invasion'

of the occupying country. An occupying power has particular obligations toward the territory it occupies, which Israel does not meet, and an occupying power cannot be 'provoked' by an occupied population into war.

this is all, of course, the long way around for Israel to avoid acknowledging that Gaza and the West Bank are effectively part of Israel, and as such its policy toward seemingly permanently 'occupied' territory pending final status resolution is apartheid

This is not some petty side tangent, it’s at the core of Israeli policy toward Gaza. Israel inflicts the worst possible outcome toward Gaza and then takes contradictory positions to make it seem like it’s acting against an unruly neighbor rather than the Ghetto that Gaza is

Great piece helping expose Germany (and frankly the US's) strategic weaponization of antisemitism against both German Jews and Palestinians.

[ID: Verified Facebook post by Ijeoma Oluo reposted on the verified instagram IjeomaOluo, the original post text reading: The idea that Palestinian liberation would require the mass killing of Jewish people is so fucking racist and i boggles the mind how many so-called progressives believe it.

Y'all sound like white supremacists warning of "white genocide" and it's fucking embarrassing.

If your safety requires the occupation, imprisonment, and oppression of a people: you don't have safety and you never will. Because everything you have will be inherently violent and must be upheld through violence and you will continue to justify that violence with the racist idea that those you oppress must be even more violent and oppressive than you, and you will use resistance to that oppression to feed the fear needed to maintain this cycle.

If you feel that a people has to "earn" their liberation by meekly submitting to oppression: [caps] You are racist. [end caps]

If you feel that a people have to prove that they will be "responsible" with their liberation like they're fucking children: [caps] You are racist. [end caps]

And your inherent belief in your own superiority (that you refuse to investigate) will have you saying that your manufactured fear of what could be for you or for those you identify with on a global colonial scale matters more than the devastating reality of what you are doing now to those you deem less than.

You don't get to say: we created this violent system of oppression but now we have to maintain it because we shouldn't have to take any personal risk to dismantle it, so whelp: I guess folks stay oppressed forever. [caps] Do you get how fucking evil this is?? [end caps]

If the idea of Palestinian liberation makes you feel unsafe - [caps] If the simple thought of freedom for a people makes you feel threatened [end caps] - you need to take a good hard look at yourself and your bigotry.

This is how a genocide happens. Because of you. You are on the wrong side of history. End ID]

[ID: Text from the article that reads: Further, the plan states the government must launch a public relations campaign that will promote the transfer program to western states in a way that does not promote hostility to Israel or damage its reputation. The deportation of the population from Gaza must be presented as a necessary humanitarian measure to receive international support. Such a deportation could be justified if it will lead to "fewer casualties among the civilian population compared to the expected number of casualties if they remain,” the document says.

The document also states that the US should be leveraged to pressure Egypt to take in the residents of Gaza, and to encourage other European countries, and in particular Greece, Spain and Canada, to help take in and settle the refugees who will be evacuated from Gaza. End ID]
