do you find palestinian voices to be unbiased?
you do understand that everything the settler entity that is israel has done to us and our personal experiences with the occupation is what very much shapes our opinions and views right?
Define bias real quick. Because you people rarely understand what being biased means within a larger sociopolitical context and your lack of awareness is really embarrassing.
First hand sources, which Palestinians provide, are the things you should gravitate towards. Please stop asking elios these things. How many times do we have to tell you that bias has multiple factors involved and israel+US media is probably the most biased because of their intention to craft specific narratives that excuse them of culpability.
i hate when i send someone a meme in another language and they're like "uhm... translate? 😒" fucker i sent you a meme where 90% of the words have an english cognate and/or you don't need to know what they're saying to find it funny. can you at least TRY
i sent this meme to 7 people, and 4 of them asked me to translate for them. i legitimately do not think that was necessary.
For the 28th week, the people of Yemen gathered in millions across the country in support of the steadfast Palestinian people and their resistance, under the slogan "With the Gaza of Glory.. Mobilization and Alert."
The protesters sent their solidarity to the resistance movements in the region and the historic student movement in the US, holding banners which read: "To the brave American students, stand your ground! Yemen stands with you for a free Palestine! They can arrest you, but they can never break your spirit!"
A million man march took place in Sana'a, marches in 21 squares took place in in Al-Hodeidah governorate, 20 massive marches in Al-Mahwit governorate, 20 marches in Saada, as well as marches in Al-Bayda and Hajja governorates.
The statement issued by those gathered in Sana'a affirmed their firm stance in support of the steadfastness of the Palestinian people, commending the operations of the Palestinian, Yemeni, Iraqi, and Lebanese resistance and calling for more operations.
They condemned the recently revealed mass graves at Nasser Medical Complex.
They also emphasized the importance of continuing popular action in support of Palestine at all levels, as well as mobilization and training at the military level, with tens of thousands having graduated already. They renewed their demand to open land corridors to allow fighters to reach Palestine, as well as their call to boycott American and zionist products.

btw i think if you tried to explain politics to Winnie the Pooh he wouldn't really get it & then if you went on explaining he'd be like 'why can't we all just be nice to each other' and you'd be like you got me there Pooh. I just don't know. :(
if you asked Pooh how he thinks society should be run he'd have a think about it & then describe some kind of communist utopia where no-one is in charge and everyone shares and helps each other and then he'd say 'but that's probably a bad idea, I'm a bear of very little brain' and wander away to look at a butterfly or something
People are getting really really fascist about peaceful protesters and it’s getting scary lol
Simultaneously holding up America as a golden standard of democracy compared to literally any other country but especially the ones populated by backwards nonwhite people while saying “lol it’s your fault if a cop brutalizes you just obey their commands or pay the price” like do you hear yourself

The student protests for Palestine have been an amazing show of solidarity and support and seeing thr way that so many young people are willing to stand up for their values is admirable when so many others stay silent. But this is all to say that we are entering a pattern of glorifying these white “martyrs” from the global west to put all of this effort and resources and media coverage into instead of the actual cause they are fighting for.
I saw the same thing happen with Aaron Bushnell, when his self immolation was being talked about more than the actual genocide in Gaza (which went against everything he said he was self immolating for in the first place).
And again this happened with the prisoner from the US who worked 136 hours just to be able to donate his $17 check to Palestine aid efforts. In response to this, people wanted to help him and ended up raising over $100,000 in a gofundme for him. This feels almost satirical, as every gofundme to help Gazans evacuate Palestine and get to safety has a goal of less than $100,000 and most of them are not even close to reaching it.
And now, there are more and more posts on how to get aid to the college student encampments, and the “urgency” of getting enough bail funds for the students who have been arrested during them. Talking about Palestine itself and getting resources to Palestine has almost been put on the back burner in favour of making all Palestine related news about college students in the United States.
It think it is valuable to recognise the selflessness and importance of these protests, and getting these students resources but what is MORE important, and what these people are truly fighting for, and protesting, and make a statement about is PALESTINE. We have unsurprisingly reached the point where there are people who care much more about the white people fighting for the cause from the comfort of living in the global west than they care about the Palestinians undergoing a genocide in Gaza. It’s become almost blatant racism, the way people begin to drop everything the second a white/usamerican person does something in regards to helping Palestine, but will not put the same effort into a Palestinian IN Gaza who is telling their story or asking for help. I respect anyone who has done absolutely anything to help Palestine, but I hope people are starting to see the pattern of how the media gravitates towards the “white saviour/perfect martyr” instead of the first hand accounts coming from those in Gaza.
