I'm excited for you all to see my show- I'm A Virgo. It comes out June 23rd. Here's the trailer.
Piraeus dockworkers declare it loud and clear: We will not stain our hands with the blood of the peoples! Dockworkers and their Union ENEDEP in Cosco in Piraeus Port refuse the unloading of the deadly cargo aboard the ship Cosco Shipping Pisces bound for Israel to be used for…
JUST IMAGINE IF A KINDERGARTEN HAD BEEN BOMBED IN THE WEST OR IN ISRAEL… The media would be wall-to-wall, calling it an act of terrorism. But when it happens in Gaza… No one says a damn thing‼️ AND WE KEEP ON SELLING THEM BOMBS.
85% of Gaza’s population have entered the "fifth stage" of malnutrition — the most critical and dangerous phase, which is often irreversible even if food becomes available in the future.
In the past month, NYT has published 32 articles that mention Mamdani/"globalize the intifada", 13 on Israel's fake "aid" agency that's killed 800+, 5 on Israel's starvation campaign & 2 that mention Gaza child amputees. I argue this is objectively insane columnblog.com/p/child-ampute…

You're watching the dockworkers of Greece last night. Blocking the export of weapons to Israel. Standing strong against the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. This is how we do it comrades. Palestine will be free.
i still think about this show every other week
I'm excited for you all to see my show- I'm A Virgo. It comes out June 23rd. Here's the trailer.
"Every day when you came back from Gaza to sleep next to me, you'd tell me how many houses you demolished today... End this war already. Conquer Gaza as quickly as possible. There's no room there for pure evil... That stinking strip." Rut Azulai, newlywed widow of IDF terrorist…
"You went to tear Gaza apart. You believed that's what needed to be done, so the damned Nazis from Gaza won't have anywhere to return to. You did it, Avraham" Another one of Avraham Azulai's brothers, Mordechai, praises his brother's devotion to the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.
"I've done this for 20 years, I've never seen that level of attacks on children." "These was nothing proportional about these attacks." UNICEF's James Elder breaks down the horrors perpetrated by Israel against the children of Gaza.
BREAKING: Israel has just killed Dr. Ahmad Qandil, one of Gaza’s leading surgeons. He wasn’t a combatant. He was a doctor who dedicated his life to saving others. So Israel murdered him. Deliberately. A war crime. A crime against humanity.
Israel killed Gaith and his entire family today in Gaza. Gaith was only 2 years old.
🚨 BREAKING: Israeli forces have killed Mohammad Shoblaq, an employee of the Coastal Municipalities Water Utility, in an airstrike that targeted the utility’s warehouse in Gaza City while he was on duty. Mohammad was known for his dedication, integrity, and sense of…
The difference between Gaza and Auschwitz is that the world still has an opportunity to stop the ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
THIS IS A MAN-MADE FAMINE. 1 in every 3 people in Gaza goes without food for several days, while 9,000 trucks full of aid waiting at the border. Forced starvation is an act of genocide.
What this photo demonstrates is that as far as Israel is concerned, there are no innocents in the Gaza strip. If total annihilation is the proper "punishment" for Gaza than Israel is unequivocally guilty of genocide.
This headline should read “In Gaza, Israel is killing Palestinians waiting in line for food.” Saying Palestinians “are prepared to die” for rice dehumanizes the victims, minimizes the horror of the aid massacres and absolves Israel of its role in the deliberate slaughter.
This is an image of total destruction and collective punishment in Gaza. Imagine the level of impunity you operate with to openly boast about your war crimes.
I like it. Check out I'm A Virgo.
From the POV of 1 of Wayne’s working class tenants in 1 of his dilapidated buildings… seeking to avenge an unjust eviction she sparks a proletariat revolution- inadvertently exposing the billionaire vigilante for the villain he is. Cue “Kill My Landlord”.
Why hope for me to waste years of my life on such a thing?
I want to see someone hand Boots Riley an unlimited budget and total freedom to make a Batman movie. Literally just say to him, “Here’s a blank check and unlimited time, come back with your movie when you’re finished” and see what he comes up with.
