Folks, Israel is not letting aid in which means Palestinians continue to have to buy food on the black market from Israel sponsored gangs. If you can donate a little money to the fundraisers we're posting, you can keep someone alive. Palestinians wouldn't beg if they didn't have to.

UNRWA has enough food outside #Gaza to supply people there for 3 months, amid desperate need. Our teams stand ready to deliver it.

But despite the #ceasefire, the Israeli Authorities’ block on UNRWA bringing any supplies into Gaza still continues.

Let us get aid into Gaza at the full scale needed.

The Times of Israel reports that Greta Thunberg & her fellow Flotilla crew are being held in a special "terrorist" section of Ketziot prison—or in "terrorist conditions," as Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's Minister of National Security put it.

Italian journalist Lorenzo Agostino tells @anadoluagency:
— Greta Thunberg, just 22, was humiliated, wrapped in an Israeli flag and paraded like a trophy.
— They seized every chance to degrade us
— I felt I was in a truly barbaric place

Say his name: Yahya Barzaq, one of the 275+ journalists killed in Gaza. He was known as one of the most prominent photojournalists still alive in Gaza. Prior to the genocide, he was known for gently photographing newborn babies.

It's not fascist to call fascists fascist.

It's not "dehumanizing" to say that terrorizing entire groups of people - which ICE does - is evil.

No executive order can change these facts.

However, people *can* mess things up for fascists by standing up for community and truth. Like this.
"No hate, no fear! Immigrants are welcome here!"

I think the piece that is the most deadly in today's Canada Post announcement is that the feds are allowing the corporation to end mail shipping via air unless the mail is deemed important. This will mean that it will take forever to mail stuff with regular fare.

The real way to help children with autism and neurodivergence is to FUND SCHOOLS. Fund the welfare state. Create opportunities for parents to have an education and well paying jobs. More EAs in school, more doctors.

Our society is anti-child, and this is why so many children are in burnout.
If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

One takeaway for Canadians watching what’s happening in the United States right now is that we need to put more pressure on governments / parties to strengthen democratic institutions and the fourth estate

You can also defend democracy by supporting the work of journalists and civil society groups
