supporting palestinian armed resistance is a must. absolutely imperative. theres no halfway about being for a free palestine and freedom of palestinians. not fighting back is a death sentence and not supporting them fighting back is you siding with the oppressor but quietly & hoping you can wait it out until theyre all killed and displaced by israel so you can go back to not caring again. fuck all that. fuck everyone who condemns people fighting back against usamerican imperialism and its rotten settler colonial extensions in the world. fascism will fail and palestine will be free inshAllah

As a young boy in school, Masaki Sashima would be dragged out of his classroom and beaten by his fellow students.

Masaki, now 72, was different to the other kids. 

He was Ainu, an Indigenous people from the country's northern regions, most notably the large island of Hokkaido.

"During recess, the hallway door would open, and several guys would yell at me to come out," he said.

"I clung to my desk in the classroom and kept quiet.

"Everyone would surround me and beat me."

Japan has long portrayed itself as culturally and ethnically homogenous, something that some have even argued is a key to its success as a nation.

More than 98 per cent of Japanese people are descendants of the Yamato people. 

But the Ainu are distinct, with their own history, languages, and culture.

But, as the victims of colonialism, assimilation, and discrimination, much of that identity has been lost. 

An Ainu woman named Chiri Yukie wrote down some of her people's oral traditions into Japanese because, as a child, her people were being displaced by Japanese settlers in Hokkaido. Her language was disappearing, so she (ironically) saw translating the stories into Japanese as a way to preserve them. She died at age 19.

many games can be slotted into multiple genres and many gamers play and adore lots of (sub)genres. try to narrow down to your ultimate favourite!

if i listed your favourite game in a certain genre and you think it fits better into another, don't worry about it, it's just a silly little poll! ^_^

i made this poll because i didn't like a different one on the same topic that's cirulating, hopefully this fits more genres that are well liked on tumblr!

I didn’t miss that social cue I just thought it was stupid 

‘i saw your social cue but am ignoring it in the hopes you learn to use your words and communicate like an adult. hope this helps’

The whole "I don't listen to rap" wave making a return makes me wonder like. Do you guys listen to any band that's fronted by a person of color? Like, go ahead, name one metal band you listen to that's fronted by a person of color. Maybe not even metal, it could be pop, indie, punk, whatever. Congrats, you BEGRUDGINGLY listened to Kendrick Lamar past the diss tracks, have you made other efforts to decolonize your music tastes? And don't give me the shit of "It's so hard to find Black/Latino/Asian/Native fronted bands!" You could literally just fucking look it up. Like I'm not your fucking encyclopedia for this shit, neither are other people of color. You wanna prop yourself up as a "revolutionary punk" and "anti-racist"? Stop using us as a fucking crutch for recommendations because we're frankly all fucking tired of it

storebought is fine if you want, but you are encouraged to make something yourself! share what you're bringing in the tags :3
