Time Force really had no sense of rules for its Power Rangers, did it. Like SPD had some sort of ranking system at the very least but why is Alex a Ranger and why is he the ONLY active Ranger

WAYS TO SUPPORT GAZA:

Care for Gaza is a legitimate non-profit, non-governmental charity currently supplying aid to Palestinians by creating food packages and giving cash to civilians in need. We are not affiliated with them, but want to share their tremendous work in aiding Palestinians in Gaza right now:

A direct link to their X acount:

GOFUNDME:

You can find their godundme linked here, which details what their charity does for Palestinians in need, how the process works and evidence of their donations—

Please reblog and help Palestinians who need it today!

Anonymous asked:

I am so sorry to bother you with this stupid question, but Bisan has asked for a complete stop in economic activity. Can I still donate to help Palestinians or is it better to avoid any transactions for the week ? Thank you so much for what you're doing

hello anon. don't apologise, you're a breath of fresh air after the recent visitors in my inbox. I think a slightly more accurate description of Bisan’s ask is to stop or minimise all economic activity not in direct support of Palestine. Now more than ever, I would encourage people to donate to escape funds for Palestinians, to direct aid organisations like CareforGaza and the PCRF, and to buy e-sims as they’re running low.

Below I’ve compiled a list of resources below but this is definitely just a small sample size of what you can do to help during this strike. This post here is an extremely comprehensive resource that I’d recommend you have a look at.

credible organisations that are doing work on the ground in Palestine:

Care for Gaza:non-profit charity that distributes money, food and other resources directly to families in Gaza.They maintain a regular presence on Twitter and Instagram. You can donate to them via Paypal here.

PCRF / Palestine Children's Relief Fund: non-profit organisation that distributes essential food and resources to families in Gaza. Most recently, they delivered 30 tons of vital medicine, and 82,000 pounds of flour.

Medical Aid For Palestinians: deploys medical teams to treat Palestinians suffering under Israel's malicious bombardments.

Donate e-sims to Palestine: massive post with tutorials and relevant links, with discount codes included in the post and in the replies.

Some facts about Haim Saban:

  • He entered US politics in 1996 when the Clinton administration was debating creating government standards for kid’s shows. (“Are kids shows like Power Rangers too violent?”) Saban was one of the TV executives to push for the industry to create its own rating system which is what ended up happening.
  • In 2001, Saban made 1.5 billion selling Fox Family Worldwide (which included Saban Entertainment which included Power Rangers) to Disney. This was the largest cash payout to a person in Hollywood history and he funneled that money into politics.
  • The deal with Disney had to be approved by international governments and some of them were taking what he felt was too long to approve the deal, so Saban called Bill Clinton and had him call the Brazilian president to move things along! (Saban started donating to the Clintons back in like 1996 after the whole rating systems for kid’s shows thing.)
  • Saban has stated that his goal is to influence American policy to be pro-Israel. He openly states that he does this through: 1) funding politicians, 2) funding think tanks, and 3) taking control of the media.
  • Saban is a top donor to the Democrats and of Hilary Clinton. He was a major supporter of Clinton during both her 2008 and 2016 presidential campaigns.
  • He created the Center for Middle East Policy and owns a large share of Univision Communications.
  • MotherJones wrote a really good article on his political investments here.
  • His politics have moved increasingly to the right over the years.
  • Unfortunately, Saban is SUPER ISLAMOPHOBIC. For example (and there are many examples), he seems to think Muslims are all potential “terrorists” and should be scrutinized before entering the United States. :/

Just remember that the British Empire, which was without exaggeration the largest empire the world has ever seen, fell in less than a couple of decades to a sad rainy island and a handful of naval bases that will soon be gone too.

We, us, in our lifetimes, will see the fall of the US empire and its allies. We will see the oppressed peoples of the world write their own history in freedom and dignity. And I believe, not out of a blind hope but out of ideological conviction, that my descendants will live in a united world with justice and equality. This is not utopianism; this is my firm belief on the power of organized struggle and socialism. This is and must be the end result: a world free of need and oppression. This will not arrive by heroism or magic, but by popular struggle and organization in a myriad forms. But it will happen.

I know I don't talk about real-life events on this blog very often but as long as this occupation is happening I strongly encourage my followers to reconsider giving their money to Power Rangers. Haim Saban is a zionist who financially supports the AIPAC and politicians advocating for this genocide, and while there's no clear answer to how much he gets nowadays with Hasbro owning the franchise, his name is still attached, so it's better to be safe than sorry. If you would like to engage in PR content there are plenty of 🏴‍☠️ sites to use or download links; or limit spending in games like Legacy Wars to in-game currency rather than your own real money.

And in the meantime check out this post with resources to help Gaza and the Palestinian people during this time of crisis.

A slight addition to this, while I still believe you should avoid giving PR your money whenever possible, the BDS would like you to focus maximum effort on boycotting these specific companies! Specifically the eight companies on the bottom of this graphic (text version in the image description)

Not putting more money into Haim Saban's pocket is important, but remember to listen to Palestinians and other official representatives.

I haven’t seen this linked on here so: this is an awesome resource for how you can help the people in Palestine. It has donation links, helps you figure out how to contact your representatives, and a regularly updated list of planned protests. It is USAmerican centric but the list of protests is international.

If you are American this site has a tool that sends an email for you. All you need to enter is your name, email address, and street address so they can auto-find your senators. It will take 30 seconds.
