the Israeli government has murdered 10,000 people in Gaza, which it has held under illegal blockade for nearly two decades. These people have been colonised, starved, and massacred. Arguing the semiotics of 'from the river to the sea' is a way to distract from the killing and ensure it continues.

AU/NZ CALL TO BOYCOTT:
A boycott list is circulating which includes Sabra Hummus. Quick google found this is Rebranded in AU/NZ as Obela hummus. This hummus funds genocide, boycott and tell everyone you know.

At some point you are going to have to confront the horrifying reality that the majority of fascists are "sane" people like you. That fascism is an ideology that primarily appeals to those with privilege, and that you cant protext yourself from the dissonance by believing theres 1/2

Because I just saw the "fascists are just mentally ill" bs again.
A reminder: fascists kill mentally ill people, comparing us to them is disgusting, ahistorical, and actively perpetuates harmful myths about mental illness and mentally ill people, while also ignoring the actual causes behind fascism.
