Um, about that….
Don't stop talking about them. We need to be their voice.

picture this. it's 2017 and you're at a friend's house. the friend is telling you about a cool game and all its wonderful secrets. she boots up the game and shows it to you. undertale.
your life changes forever.
you want to draw your favourite character from the game. sans. so you pick up a pencil and scribble on your wall. I will practice until it is perfect. you draw these characters every day. you have sketchbook upon sketchbook filled with these characters. you write about them. you create songs on your iPhone 4 voice notes. you cry to sad comic dubs. you make a mettaton costume out of paper and you wear it to your halloween disco. you write a letter to the creator to make a sequel and you never post it. you buy shirts and wear them everywhere in hopes of finding someone else who loves it as much as you do. these characters are more than characters. theyre like friends. you imagine yourself hanging out with them.
sometimes, in private moments, you curl up in bed and wish to travel to that world. if you wish hard enough, maybe it'll come true.
this game is the most important thing in the world to you.
six years later, and the game and its successor is still everything to you.
the 'you' in this story is Meeeeeeeeeeeeeee:3 if it isnt obvious
🚨🚨🚨
I will not be intimidated. I will not be silenced. I will seek the truth and I will speak it loud and clear. 🗣️📢
Israel is indeed an apartheid state, and is committing genocide against the Palestinian people as we speak.
Hamas did not start this war, because there IS no war. There was, there is, and there will be an occupation, unless we do something about it.
You cannot occupy a land, put people under blockade and expect them to just sit there and comply. Resistance, rebellion, retaliation, and revolution are inevitable.
The oppressed do not want peace, they want freedom. So you either give it back to them, or they snatch it back from you. And that with any means necessary.
Palestinians in the West Bank including kids and women, get bullied, mocked, brutalized, beaten, imprisoned, tortured, evicted from their homes, used as human shields, attacked while they pray in Al Aqsa Mosque, shot dead, and killed by the Israeli forces and armed and unarmed settlers alike.
Palestinians in Gaza are under blockade, they have NOWHERE else to go, they can't do anything without Israel's permission. They get punished for whatever Israel accuses Hamas of doing, they get bombed, they get starved, no water, no electricity, no food, no medical aid whenever Israel is pissed.
And they are refered to as animals on national TV, by Israeli leaders, and mocked by influencers on Social media, no shame, no embarrassment, nothing!
Do NOT talk to me about October 7th, if you're NOT ready to hear about the past 75 years.
Do NOT call us Hamas sympathizers, we are not Hamas sympathizers, we are Pro-Palestinians, we are fighting for freedom, we are standing with the oppressed.
Do NOT call us antisemite (especially not me, I'm an arab, arabs are semite themselves), we do NOT hate the Jews, our fight is not against the Jews. In fact there are many Jews fighting this fight alongside us.
We stand against Zionists.
Educate yourself, read, seek the truth, free yourself from the shackles of western media.
From the river to the sea, Palestine WILL be free. ✌️🇵🇸✊
Biden’s actions have consequences. You are never going to convince people to vote for him again by trying to point of his slightly lefter than before track record. Tangibly, he has lost support that he will never get back. No amount of browbeating, no amount of whining and crying about how much worse the other guys are will ever bring these votes back. What are you going to do about it? How are you preparing for this inevitability that Biden calculated as an acceptable political loss?
Paper Mario: Sticker Star was originally designed to include partners following Mario around during most of the gameplay, similar to Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. In the finished game, Mario only occasionally has temporary followers, like Wiggler segments.
However, the camera system in the game has never been updated when the partners were removed, so in large areas in the finished game, the camera is always centered on the point between Mario and the spot where his partner would have been. This results in Mario being slightly off-center for most of the gameplay.

“Where do I stand on the – on the WHAT? The “Transgender Question”? Well for one thing, sir, I recall the last few usages of that particular phraseology. A group of millions is not a question – I have not yet finished speaking – not a question, but a demographic.“
“The Romans had their castrated priestesses, the Hindus their Hijras, but my god, let us take to the barricades because Uncle Al came to Thanksgiving in a skirt and pantyhose! It’s the province of rubes. Hayseed reactionaries and the worst effluvia of America’s suburban colon.”
“And Chapelle! My god, Chapelle. Embarrassing as only a true great can become in his declining years – I speak here with complete self-awareness; kindly hold your barbs – as he tires of innovation and falls back into the soporific cushion of the lowest common denominator!”
“One joke stretched until you can hear its joints popping like some poor bastard broken on the rack. “Oh my car has pronouns, I identify as a bird, I’m trans-Chinese.” The laziness of it – shameful. You should see the transgendered roast themselves; there’s true scorched earth.“
Have you heard of the Deir Yassin Massacre? It was a massacre that occurred in a small village called Deir Yassin, caused by Zionist Paramilitary Groups, that left around 130 Palestinian Arabs dead, including Women and Children; This happened despite the village having earlier agreed to a peace pact.
After the atrocity had been done, the sixth Prime Minister of Israel Menachem Begin had praised the attack as a splendid act of conquest. The attack happened in 1948. Hamas was founded in 1987.

PS: While I condemn the Anti-Semitism of the Arab world, as I have already established in the comment section of one of my previous posts, they're not targeting Hamas, they're purposefully targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure. (Sources)
PPS: If you want, I can cite all of the sources I used in the aforementioned comment section; Perhaps you should begin citing the sources you used as well. [Citation not needed]
PPPS: You seem to be conflating Israel with Jews as a whole; While it is a safe space for Jews, something which as I have already stated is important, you have to realize that many Jews do not support Israel, at least not in the way it acts and has historically acted. (Source)
PPPPS: Did you even read the articles? And I don't mean like read only the start or skim through it, I mean like fully, actually read it. Oh, and let me just cite one more source about the 'Israel funded Hamas' claim, this time from a source that's Pro-Israel: (Source)
Sorry I just saw your second comment.
Dude, I get you, I agree, no one is arguing that children need/deserve/should be killed. But how can you not understand that israel is doing what it can to protect the civilians (evacuation orders), but also needs to secure its own soldiers, who literally 19-23 year olds mostly, and those who aren’t are just civilians, doctors, lawyers, fathers, israel doesn’t want them to die to satisfy hamas, and Israel has a duty to protect them as they risk their lives to go in to kill terrorists who built their bases among civilian population, with people who aren’t specifically hamas also hating them and wanting them dead (again- not in a way of an excuse, but just you know, it’s the truth, their children would shoot a soldier, they have summer camps for it).
So yes, it’s sad, but these are precaution that israel has to take to protect its own children who are sacrificing their lives. And if warning people to evacuate isn’t enough, and saying that it’ll all stop if the hostages are released and hamas surrenders entirely, then how can you blame israel? 1400 people died gruesome, painful, terrifying deaths, they were tortured and beheaded and raped and burned alive. How can this be allowed to pass? How does israel eliminate hamas so that this never happens again?
I don't have anything to say that I have not already said before in the comments under my last response to you, but I do want to ask you two questions.
How do you feel about the historical oppression of Palestinians [1], and the fact that Israel is directly responsible for the things Hamas has done by getting them into power by providing them funding [2] [3], and the fact that were it not for the aforementioned oppression, Hamas would not exist in the form we see today [4]?
The 4th source is locked behind a paywall, but the intro alone illustrates my point well.
Oh, and just one more question, how do you feel about how the current Israeli Government is extremely Far-Right [5}, resembling Nazism more than anything I've seen coming from those who oppose what Israel is doing and has done to Palestine (except my asshole of a Grandpa and Hamas themselves)?
