I'm just a girl, standing in front of the internet, asking you to Free Palestine, join a socialist organization, & punch your local Nazis. I also love dogs.
I'm a ding-dong and broke this thread, so I'm QTing some stuff to try to solve the continuity issue. Books 1-8:
Starting a thread to share what I'm reading so far in 2024! I'll keep adding more in case you wanna have an asynchronous book club w me. All titles are related to leftist politics, abolition, anarchism, Marxism, socialism, etc. 🥰 1. Abolishing State Violence by Ray Acheson
It's MSNBC that is saying this....
"Ocasio-Cortez’s position on the Iron Dome now is to the right of her position four years ago." msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-…
1/ Our petition has over 500 sigs - join us! It's time for action - we call on the NPC to hold a special meeting to discuss AOC's Iron Dome vote and organize a DSA panel on this question to have discussion on electoral accountability before Convention! reform-revolution.solidarity.tech/demand-an-npc-…
I’m still here. 620 days ago. When kids were being slaughtered, losing limbs, growing hungry and they begged us, in English, to let them live. I never moved on; I’m still here.
Kids in Gaza hosting a press conference, in English, to beg the world for life. “We come now to shout and invite you to protect us; we want to live, we want peace…we want to live as the other children live.” Over 4200 kids, like these, have been killed.
Anthony Aguillar, a security guard GHF whistleblower, and former Green Beret, says of the IDF and security guards there, "in my most frank assessment, I would say that they were criminal. In my entire career, I have never witnessed the level of brutality and use of indiscriminate…
Former US Green Beret who was one of the armed American security guards in Gaza, who left after he saw American and Israeli colleagues killing Palestinian civilians, "Without question I witnessed war crimes by the Israeli Defence Forces, without a doubt, using artillery rounds,…
We did this to him. This government. This country. We condemned him to this torture because he dared to follow our own laws and seek refuge here. Utterly sick.
Baltimore has been investing youth programming, including late night programs, summer camps, teen jobs, sports, after school programs, etc. Homicides in the city are down 40%, with steep drops in robberies, carjackings, and shootings. This should be talked about more.
I swear to God if Gavin Newsom and other Democrats all over the country try to feign indignation over this as if their violent sweeps policies have not been greasing the wheels for what comes next, I am going to want to write a strongly worded letter on their faces with my fist

Israel refuses to give aid orgs safe routes to use, they delay & block aid, they've destroyed all the roads, there are no escorts to protect the trucks (because Israel murders them), they ban closed trucks, they don't allow the entry of fuel And then they blame aid organisations
The early 2000s were genuinely a cultural nightmare. This shit was so normalized, the tabloid headlines were almost exclusively dedicated to speculating about teenage girls' virginity or calling women and girls fat derogatorily.
Umm, excuse me?
We're now, predictably, seeing so much of this, from amoral rats who cheered all of this on for 20 months -- despite knowing exactly what it would cause -- and now finally want to distance themselves from it to cleanse it from their conscience and legacy:
.@SenAmyKlobuchar: "Acute malnutrition is rising. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed in recent weeks while seeking food, most in the vicinity of Gaza Humanitarian Foundation distribution sites and others on the routes of aid convoys. This is simply unacceptable."
It hasn’t fully dawned on a lot about what we are about to witness in Gaza. There is no going back. As individuals we can offer some temporary reprieve for some families by allowing them to buy and eat food for another day or three. Please consider supporting Ameer’s family…
Negotiations failed... and it seems that death was destined for us. We waited for a glimmer of hope, for news to stop the bleeding, or for a truce to restore our breath of life... but nothing changed. The blood still flows, hunger ravages our bodies, and death hovers over our…
This is a horror and Israel is to blame. There needs to be a ceasefire and Gaza flooded with food and water. nytimes.com/2025/07/24/wor…
The recognition of Palestine, from France, comes with a lot of conditions - disarming & eradicating Hamas, expanding PA’s power and the state comprising only of the West Bank & Gaza. These are platitudes. What state when you couldn’t even be bothered to stop the starvation and…
Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain.…
The sheer intellectual collapse you have to experience to be faced with 122 international aid organisations telling you the same thing... ISRAEL IS STARVING GAZANS... only to decide they are ALL lying & that actually Benjamin Netanyahu, on trial for fraud, is telling the truth.
🚨BREAKING | Kidnapped at a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation @GHFUpdates death trap, 17-year-old Omar Nizar Asfour was released today from Israeli prisons, along with nine other Palestinian children who had been abducted at the same site in the Al-Shakhoush area, north of Rafah. All…
🚨“He was our older brother in prison. He would get beaten and tortured because of them. F*ck your aid!” said a 14-year-old Palestinian boy, moments after his release from Israeli captivity at Nasser Hospital. He was one of ten children who were kidnapped by Israeli occupation…

Remember that right after the ICJ issued its report that Israel was "plausibly" committing genocide, Isreal retaliated by firing on food convoys & claiming, without substantiation, that 4 UNRWA employees were involved in 10/7. UNRWA funding was then cut -- basically bc Israel…
I'm at the Capitol with Mosab Abu Toha, a teacher, poet, and genocide survivor who escaped Gaza after losing dozens of his family members. We are here to call on my colleagues and government officials to stop funding the genocide in Gaza.
