Do Not Stop Talking About Palestine!

Ho trovato questi commenti su Twitter ma ce ne sono a milioni così.

Sono proprio frasi del genere che alimentano la violenza sulle donne ed i femminicidi, ma soprattutto una mentalità che definire assurda sarebbe riduttivo. Le parole sono potenti. Sono armi.

Dopo 105 donne UCCISE venire a dire che questo è un circo di femministe, fa venire la nausea.

Parlare di politica, di sinistra, di destra ma vi sentite? Le donne vengono UCCISE e voi state a guardare che la sorella ha avuto tempo di mettersi l'eye liner e quindi non sta provando abbastanza dolore.

Questa è la società malata in cui viviamo.

Sua sorella ha avuto la forza di parlare, di reagire, di fare qualcosa per aiutare altre donne. E invece la gente scrive cose del genere.

Ps. Che cazzo c'entra l'anello al naso, tutte sorelle e poi stereotipate una persona per un cazzo di piercing.

I keep posting this because it's important people see the tricks the US Empire will pull in order to ensure the occupation of Palestine doesn't end.

When Netanyahu is removed and scapegoated for the crimes Israel has committed, his more moderate replacement will go on a media tour in order to repair Israel's image in the West and a diplomatic tour in order to restore diplomatic relations with the countries that have recalled their ambassadors or cut diplomatic ties entirely. The genocide we're witnessing will be treated like a mild mistake that will never happen again (that Palestinians have brought on themselves). More money will be allocated to Zionist groups in the West to ensure that the public doesn't turn on Israel again.

Meanwhile, Palestinians will continue to get imprisoned, tortured and killed, only now without the world paying attention (just like what happened after the 2021 war). It's our duty as people who are pro Palestine to ensure that this fails. We need to make sure they don't sweep the genocide under a rug. We need to make that Western politicians and journalists don't clean the blood off their hands in the same way we've spent 45 days countering Israeli propaganda

Preview: the author of the post I reblogged was talking about something that happened in Italy, on November 12th. A 22yo woman named Giulia Cecchetin disappeared alongside her ex, Filippo Turetta. At some point, a video of him beating her and then dragging her to his car appeared. Giulia's body was found on the 18th of November, and her ex was arrested in Germany some days later. He killed her, he admitted it. He committed a feminicide. Giulia's sister spoke up against patriarchal culture, which she blamed for the death of her sister, and Italian politicians and their followers didn't like that. They started accusing her of being a satanist because of a hoodie she wore in an interview ( it was a band shirt that displayed a satanic symbol, not something REALLY satanic), and because she is goth. They also accused her of being a "Nazi-fem" and of "not suffering enough for the death of her sister", since she didn't cry in an interview and other bullshits.

Translation of the sexist comments reported in the image upwards, to which the OG poster was complaining about:

1) "But, the left-winged sister with a septum, she who gives the blame to Salvini (a politician) and to the government, she who knew everything and understood everything... What the heck did she do to save her? We have another Ilaria Cucchi (a girl who protested for her brother's death by the hand of police brutality), we will see her at Schlein's (another politician) side too."

2) "Sadly, the inappropriate words of Giulia's sister made a circus of 2.0 feminists arise, together with a bunch of brainless left-winged nut-heads!the cringe."

3) "I don't know if you're following the crazy rants of the sister of poor Giulia..."

4) "I feel embarrassed for Elena! I would be destroyed if I had lost my mom a year ago, imagine losing also a sister because someone killed her! Instead, she goes all chill on tv, acting like she's some kind of teacher..."

5) "she talks about patriarchy when her father economically supports her. Feminism created OF, you're free and independent, start from there and and fuck off"

Translation of the post who reported these comments:

"I found these comments on Twitter, but there are millions like these ones.

It's phrases like this that support violence against women and feminicides, but also, and especially, a mentality that to define absurd would be reductive. Words are powerful. They are weapons.

After 105 women that were KILLED by, saying that the activists are a "circus of feminists" is nauseous.

Talking about politics, about the left, the right, do you hear yourself? Women are getting KILLED and you're looking at the fact that Giulia's sister found the time to do her eyeliner and so "she's not feeling enough sadness".

This is the sick society in which we live in.

Her sister had the strength to talk, to react, to do something to help other women. And instead of praising her, people are writing this shit.

PS. Why the fuck does the nose piercing matter in this? All "sisters", and then you stereotype a person for a fucking piercing."

Everyone needs to know.

Between the 11th and 12th of this month, Giulia Cecchettin, a 22-year-old Italian girl, disappeared alongside her ex boyfriend, Filippo Turetta. Today, 18th November, her body was found in a lake 140km from where I live.

For six days, we were told that they ran away together, despite the fact Giulia was supposed to graduate from university on the 16th. That we shouldn't jump to conclusions, that there wasn't any proof he had killed her, that we were crazy for even thinking it. When a video of him beating Giulia up until she was bleeding came out, newspapers were filled with declarations from his family saying he loved her, he would never do anything to hurt her, he was just a little possessive and jealous.

We all knew. We all fucking knew since we read the words "ex boyfriend".

Giulia is the 103rd woman victim of feminicide in Italy in 2023. 103.

Meanwhile, Giulia's sister Elena, who has had to spend the last week making as much noise as possible because that was her only hope of finding her sister, was asked if the family was ready to forgive him. Newspapers talk about how good of a guy he was, they carefully avoid saying he murdered her, they refer to them as a couple. I've lost track of how many men have taken time to comment "not all men" under posts about Giulia.

Not all men, but all women.

If you live outside of Italy, you probably won't hear of this news. You probably don't know how pervasive victim blaming is in Italian news stations, how bad the statistics of feminicide are. So, please, reblog this post. Demand justice. Say Giulia Cecchettin's name.

Se domani non torno, distruggi tutto.

Transcription under the cut.

Words from Elena Cecchettin, Giulia Cecchettin's sister. Giulia was killed by her boyfriend Filippo Turetta some days ago, at 22 years old. Filippo has been described as exercising control and emotional manipulation during his relationship with Giulia. In the end, he killed her by stabbing her 20 times, and threw her body to the bottom of a ravine. There is video evidence that he killed her.

According to data from Italy’s Interior Ministry, since the beginning of this year 2023, there have been 105 women murdered, and at least 52 of these women were killed by a romantic partner or ex-partner. However, despite the constant femicides, Italian law does not recognise the category of "femicide" as separate from any other kind of murder, because it does not recognising that this disproportionate amount of women murdered for gender-based reasons are, in fact, murders as a result of sexist culture and gender-based violence. That is, a hate crime.

Transcription of the video. Clip from an Italian TV programme where a reporter is holding up a microphone to a young girl. The English translation is this:

I want to send a message and I hope it can be heard by as many people as possible. These days we have heard Turetta be talked about and many people have defined him as a monster, as a sick man. But he's not a monster. Because a monster is the exception to society. A monster is he who is out of our society's normal canons. But he's a healthy son of the patriarchal society which is full of rape culture. Rape culture is all those actions that search to limit women's freedom, such as controlling a phone, like being possessive, like catcalling, and it's a structure that benefits all men. "Not all men are bad", they often tell me. Yes, it's true, but in cases like this, it's always men, and anyway all men benefit from this type of society. So, all men must pay attention, must call out the friend who catcalls passerbys, must call out the workmate that checks his girlfriend's phone. You must be hostile to these behaviours that might look trivial but are the prelude to femicide. Femicide is not a passion crime. Femicide is a power crime. And femicide is a state homicide, because the state doesn't protect us. It's necessary to plan sexual and affective education in order to prevent these things. It's necessary to fund shelters for victims of violence so that, if people need to ask for help, they're able to do it. And for Giulia, I ask you, don't do a minute of silence. For Giulia, burn it all down.

Giulia potrei essere io o qualsiasi altra ragazza che commette lo "sbaglio" di fidarsi

e adesso ci sono genitori che non riusciranno MAl ad accettare la scomparsa della figlia, che qualcuno di cui si fidavano gliel'ha portata via. e genitori che dovranno convivere con il peso di un ragazzo che non pensavano potesse commettere un gesto del genere.

smettiamola di pensare che le donne siano esagerate e che abbiano paura di tutto, perché dobbiamo averne, per forza. è l'unica cosa che ci avete lasciato.
