It's been difficult to ask for help, but I'm a foreign student in🇰🇷 who's in such a crisis financially and health-wise that it's about survival--for me & my parents in India. Full story below. If anyone can help, even a little, even just by sharing, it would mean the world. ⬇️
As the end of the year approaches, I'm grateful to those who donated to help me through my difficult situation. Thank you so much. However, donations have stopped entirely & I'm still struggling to survive. I'll be grateful if you could help me reach at least 50% of my goal.
I sincerely thank @keiralekseii.bsky.social for setting up the GFM and @xiranjayzhao.bsky.social for their guidance throughout the process. Please help.

So many Zionists just feeling the need to come out as anti-Black lately.
Jerry Seinfeld compared the #FreePalestine movement to the KKK:
“Just say you don’t like Jews. By saying ‘Free Palestine,’ you’re not admitting what you really think. So it’s actually — compared to the Ku Klux Klan, I’m actually thinking the Klan is actually a little better"
