eSims for Gaza is facing constant eSim shortages.

They get over a thousand requests for connection a day, but their email inbox is regularly sitting at 300-500 eSims. With the bombardment of Rafah and continual internet blackouts, the need for more eSims is particularly urgent.

Even if you have already sent an eSim or donated to an eSim donation drive, there is more you can do. The team is calling for people to campaign in their communities to help spread the word about eSims and encourage donations.

You can help by printing out posters and putting them up in local businesses, on telephone poles and notice boards, or wherever people are likely to see them.

Palestine Donation Links Masterpost

This is a masterpost of places to throw your money at to support Palestine. I'm gonna try and keep this updated as much as I can.

*** Please note, donating does not mean you should stop boosting Palestinian voices. Spreading awareness is JUST AS IMPORTANT as sending money since misinformation is one of the Zionist movement's most dangerous tools. ***

Hey, y'all. Last month was really rough and these bills are kicking my ass HARD. I was stuck in bed with pneumonia for 3 weeks and could not work or go to class at all, my savings are gone from the last time I got sick, and my food stamps got cut off so I'm caught in a really bad bind rn and could really use some help. I need to pay rent, lights, phone bill, and for a new metro card to travel to and from work and class. Please share and or donate if at all possible any amount is greatly appreciated! Please don't tag with anything.

It’s scary just how much fascism is on the rise. Im aware it’s not new either, there’s been a resurgence happening since God knows when, but it seems to be more apparent now and more emboldened. And it’s not just white nationalists, but right wing nationalists from non-Western countries too who are a threat. Even “moderates” are trying to appeal to these people.

It’s not just racism they’re pushing either, but transphobia too which ended with the death of a child a few days ago. Denialism of all sorts as well, like climate change denialism, anti-vax rhetoric, and so on.

The world we live in is in shambles. There’s very little security of any kind… which is why we need to work to fix it. But instead we have liberals gaslighting us that only voting or appealing to those in power will fix things meanwhile the right-wing demagogue capitalises on these issues to shift the blame onto minorities. Again, it’s not anything new by any means but it just shows how desperately we need to build something new and very quickly.

If you use arab.org like I do please consider taking the extra 30-60 seconds to click on ALL of their causes. Palestine is important but so are the environment, refugees, children, women, and the impoverished across the middle east and it doesn't take away from Palestine to click for multiple causes. The arab world faces a lot of problems and they only get worsened by how western nations have oppressed and attacked them. Clicking is small but it generates something and overtime it does benefit the greater good. It takes all of us clicking as often as possible but we can do it! It's really easy and safe and they have proofs on their site on how they do make an impact and are donating your click money

"Revolutionary suicide does not mean that I and my comrades have a death wish; it means just the opposite. We have such a strong desire to live with hope and human dignity that existence without them is impossible. When reactionary forces crush us, we must move against these forces, even at the risk of death." -Huey P. Newton "A society that drives its members to desperate solutions is a non- viable society, a society that needs to be replaced." -Frantz Fanon

“You simply cannot fit more America into a single incident than a man dying a horrifying death in protest of war crimes while a first responder screams at cops to stop pointing their guns at him and go get fire extinguishers. If you were to pick a single moment in history to sum up the essence and expression of the US empire, that would be it.”

Caitlin Johnstone, The Most American Thing That Has Ever Happened

sorry to say this but not every act of protest is meant to be palatable. actually scratch that, to protest is to disrupt, it's to inconvenience, it's to make you unable to ignore the protesters message, it's priority should never be its palability.

actually im going to elaborate on this. self-immolation is meant to disturb people. its meant to scandalize and to mark you. it is a radical act of protest at an incredible high cost and it should be treated as such. Aaron Bushnell's death should be mourned because it was preventable. it was as preventable as the 30,000 Palestinian deaths. but his choice should be honored and respected.

in his own words : “my name is Aaron Bushnell. I am an active duty member of the united states air force, and I will no longer be complicit in genocide. I’m about to engage in an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it’s not extreme at all. this is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.”

the whole point of his protest is to highlight the violence and pain that the usa and more specifically the usa army is complicit in. in a way that could not be ignored.

to blur his final moments to make them more 'comfortable' to watch, to consume, is extremely disrespectful.

mind you i am not saying that you should go out of your way to expose yourself to such footage, especially if you are not in a place mentally that allows you to do so.

but his final wish was to force us into a conversation around the pain and violence we are complicit with. so much so that it has now become 'normal' rather than outraging.

it is important that we do not let the media sweep up or minimize his actions (something that the blurring facilitates). just in the last not even four months we have had 3 separate self-immolations in protest against at least two ongoing genocides. this is what the fucking wikipedia page for political self-immolation looks like as of today.

here's some links to check out:

I know you guys mean well, but don't you see the irony in doing this? this post is the least explicit it could ever be given the matter we are discussing. and to add the content warning for 'suicide' takes away Aaron Bushnell's agency. he knew what he was doing, he knew the risks do not disrespect his memory and do not disregard his sacrifice.

WE GOT A GLIMPSE OF WHAT PUBLIC TELEVISION & MASS BROADCAST MEDIA IS POWERWASHING THE TV-OWNING PUBLIC WITH THE CONCEPTION THAT “ANTISEMITISM” IS CROPPING UP ON CAMPUSES LIKE WILDFIRE WITHOUT EVER MENTIONING WHATS ACTUALLY BEING SAID. LIKELY THINGS LIKE “FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA” BUT THEY WONT CONFIRM ANYTHING. ITS INSIDIOUS.

SPREAD THE TRUTH. SPREAD THE TRUTH. BY GD SPREAD THE TRUTH.

I MADE THIS POST MONTHS AGO AND THE VIOLENT PROPAGANDA HONESTLY HAS ONLY HEIGHTENED SINCE. WEVE SEEN THE MARTYRING OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE SINCE, JOURNALISTS TARGETED WITH ABANDON. DO NOT FALTER. DO NOT LET THEIR WORDS, VIDEOS, REPORTS, FALL ON DEAF EARS. DO NOT DEAFEN YOURSELF EITHER. DO NOT FALL SILENT, FOR ANYONE ELSES COMFORT, FOR YOYR OWN COMFORT. NOT UNTIL PALESTINE IS FREE, UNTIL ISRAEL IS CRUSHED. THIS IS IMPERATIVE. DO NOT STOP TALKING ABOUT PALESTINE.
