Buildings are easier to defend than outdoor camps AND they can be more disruptive. For anyone ready to escalate for Gaza, check out this re-issue of a text that has been used in previous movements.
Right wing youtuber Arielle Scarcella has spent the past few weeks posting libsoftiktok style videos harassing random trans people online. She has a massive following and these videos are getting in the tens of thousands of views each, which is seriously dangerous for the people she attacks in them. Could everyone who can please help me report as many of her recent videos as possible? And please help by spreading this post

A.I. photos are flooding social media and contributing to an Internet where we can't believe what we see. Spotting A.I. đź“·s is an important media literacy skill.
None of us have time to research every image we see. We just need people to notice BEFORE THEY LIKE OR SHARE that an image might be fake. If unsure, check it or don't share.
I've started drawing some comics explaining the basic of AI spot-checking and media literacy in the age of disinformation. Follow along here or on my Twitter.
🚨 The person who reportedly self-immolated outside the zionist consulate in Boston in 9/11 has surfaced in this Youtube video under the name Matt Nelson. He states, “My name is Matt Nelson and I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest. We are all culpable in the ongoing genocide in Gaza” and calls people to action to stop the US-zionist genocide.
This is the 5th self-immolation in the US in the past year (ATL, DC, NYC, Oklahoma, Boston). This action is already being ignored and depoliticized by mainstream media.

ive been seeing a new wave of transmedicalists lately I think we gotta start being vocal again about how nasty they are. you don't need to take hormones or have surgery to be a trans person. changing your name and pronouns is gender affirming care. wearing new clothes and hair and makeup is part of transitioning too. you dont need to pass to be trans, you don't need to be male or female.
nonbinary, agender, genderfluid, genderqueer people are trans too if that's a label they want to use for themselves. and anyone who says otherwise is a piece of shit. it's not "anti-transitioning" to say so, it's anti-telling other people what to do with their bodies. it's pro-minding your own fucking business and letting people do what they want with their gender and treating them with compassion and enthusiasm

Bangladesh is currently on the brink of civil war.
The prime minister, Sheik Hasina is extremely corrupt and has recently stated, and I am paraphrasing, “why should razakars (the ones who supported Pakistan during the genocide they committed in Bangladesh back in the 1970s. Research the Liberation War) take the jobs of the children of the veterans that have fought in the war?“
This has led to mass prejudice. People and the police are harassing innocents, attacking universities, going into peoples home to harm them. There is no proof that these people are razakars, they are attacking based on a feeling of all things.
They are killing and harming people near constantly and Bangladesh has turned off the network over there, keeping people from asking for help from the outside. I am terrified for my friends and family over there. A friend of mine, her cousins are all currently in the hospital from having acid thrown at them and being beaten brutally by the police.
I am not asking for donations or charity of any kind, all I ask is for you all to please educate yourselves and spread the word in whichever way you can. Even a simple instagram story can help. They should not be ignored.
Thank you for your time.
