Almost 500,000 people took to the streets today in Argentina— including an antifa bloc of several hundred—- to send a message against the fascisms of yesterday & today. Against their economic models of hunger & exploitation, & against their culture war attacks on women, LGBTQ comm., & immigrants.

The history of Western imperialism is bookended by genocides: the genocide perpetrated by Columbus against the Taino people after 1492, and the current US-Israeli genocide against the people of Palestine. Plus countless more in between. 500+ years of barbarism and it must be stopped.

Let's do a thread for Palestinians who need support. If you are Palestinian, please drop your fundraiser links below!
