This is not how corporations respond to an ineffective protest. This is how they respond to a protest that they would like to have go away.
So don't let it go away. Keep it going.
In fact, Streissand Effect this shit. Call attention to how much they want this to go away.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:
“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”
Israel just killed him.

I wanted to boost the accounts of the three families from Gaza I have been focusing on posting - here is a thread of what is going on with them.
They are all doing really badly and there is just no food.

Folks, this is coming down to the wire but is still super reachable. Hopefully I don't have to tell you why trans people would want to get out of this blimp explosion of a country. This is when we need our cis allies to help out in material, financial ways. Donate what you can.
