If a company branded itself with Pride colors in the past but stopped this year? Stop shopping there during June. Their "support" was never more than a way to get our dollars during Pride Month as it was, but their decision to abandon the LGBTQ community when things got a little spicy for them underscores their cynicism and cowardice.
@Handout@sleepybisexual@angiebaby I think it's good they pulled it, I don't really want unethically made clothing marketed to queer people by a shitty company, but it does show their cowardice

‘Israelis, go back to Europe’? Some on the left need to rethink their slogans
by #Jo-AnnMort
"A majority of Israel’s #Jews today are not descended from #Europe, but rather from #Arab nations. To expect them to leave #Israel is unprecedented, unrealistic and wrong."
[I don't agree with her opinion on "river to the sea", but I do agree on "go back to Europe".]
@plink@palestine@israel Yeah the Sephardim are native to Palestine and the rest of Arabia. I dont really like the idea of telling ethnicities to go somewhere anyway, because thats weird. Jews and Arabs can live in harmony if the states and colonisation stopped
You are trying to get out of a pit with your friends, the sides are slippery and there is a guy at the top who sometimes throws things at you and you know he's helping other people to make even more pits that are even deeper someplace else. There is a slim chance he could be replaced by another guy who will start filling all the pits in with a bulldozer. Do you keep the jerk or brave the dozer?
@WhiteCatTamer@ganjajukes@palestine@futurebird Biden isnt protecting trans kids. Biden isnt protecting women. Trying to scare them into voting for him based on that is 1), a little bigoted, as youre using their oppression as leverage to help your favourite liberal Yemeni orphan killer and 2) untruthful, a lie.
"President Biden on Wednesday warned he would stop supplying Israel with offensive weapons like bombs and artillery shells if Israeli forces launch an invasion of Rafah, laying down a clear line amid outcry over the conflict in Gaza.”
@StillIRise1963 Liberal zionists piss me off. At least the fascists dont pretend to care. You lot give off a holier than thou attitude while justifying genocide. Fuck off.
@snack@Miro_Collas@palestine Hamas has agreed to a ceasefire with agreeable terms; Israel will not accept it because killing Palestinians is their goal. Israel constantly gives horrible deals to make it look like Hamas is stopping peace, but they are lying.
@mybarkingdogs@Miro_Collas@Infoseepage@palestine Other countries dont have hundreds of airforce bases in the middle east, they dont really have the ability to. As Miro said, Arab countries wont because theyre beholden to the US, and even when they try they have very little resources for it.
@bananarama@Miro_Collas@snack@palestine This isnt to say death is good. Of course it never is. But painting it as the biggest death of Jews since the holocaust frames it as a throughline of anti-semitism, from the Nazis to the evil Hamas. But its not. Its a throughline of Israeli colonisation of Palestine. October 7th was entirely avoidable. By stopping the colonisation. Anti colonial violence wont end until someone wins, and I hope its the colonised that win.
@bananarama Oh the Jews are indigenous to Palestine! Well, the ones that were already there. Most Israelis are European immigrants which are descendants of converts, not Palestinian refugees from the Romans etc.
