just popping in to say that while the watermelon 🍉 symbol is important, it is only spread because of the censorship and banning of the flag. but when you are not being censored or otherwise silenced you should be saying PALESTINE. you should be using our flag 🇵🇸

you shouldn't really be commenting or tagging as 🍉 when you are able to say Free Palestine or posting our flag 🇵🇸. by all means use the 🍉 in addition to our flag if you like to use that symbol but don't let it replace the flag

Kinda crazy to me seeing people tag things like "I had no idea the U.S. bombed Somalia recently" or "I had no idea Syria was still being bombed" and it's kind of crazy to me how the situation in Falasteen has opened Western people's eyes to the ongoing imperialism their countries are partaking in.

These are things we're accutely aware of because we discuss it with each other. When we call our families back home we hear the warplanes or the shooting. The geopolitics of the SWANA region are so deeply intertwined so we know about the politics of all or most countries in the region, whether they're our neighbouring countries or not.

All of us know about the Gulf countries' plots to control our countries and economies, all of us know about Egypt and its attempts and partial successes at revolution at its peak, all of us know about Algeria and its beautiful fight for independence, all of us know about Syria's struggles, all of us know about Sudan's silencing, all of us know about Iran's influence in our countries, and Turkey and Morocco's attempts at soft power and tourism despite the way they ravage the region and on and on and on. And of course. The one thing everyone knows about in our region without exception is Palestine and the imperative to liberate this land and let everyone go home.

That is the ONE thing that 99% of South-West Asians and North Africans can agree on (excluding elites and seemingly the majority of Lebanese Christians).
