"please buy another pasta" no im gonna buy your pasta im gonna buy it and im gonna shove it up my boyfriends ass

On thursday (october 22nd, 2015) the worst terrorist attack in Sweden since 1940 occurred. A right-wing extremist armed with a sword and knives marched into a school and systematically attacked people of color. A student and a teacher died, and another student and a teacher are currently in intensive care.

The terrorist was open about his extremist right-wing views. He was racist, islamophobic and inspired by the anti-immigration discourse that is currently happening nationwide in Sweden. The terrorist was shot by police during the attack and died. I will not say his name, nor upload his picture. He does not deserve the attention. However, I will say that there’s been two severe terrorist attacks in scandinavia in the past few years (this one, in Trollhättan, and then the one in Norway that was carried out in 2011), and they have both been perpetrated by right-wing extremist white men.

Teacher Lavin Eskandar was one of the victims of the terrorist. He attempted to stop the attacker in order to protect the students that were in his care. Lavin was 20 years old, had recently graduated and aspired to work with media. Had he not reacted as quickly as he did, it is likely that more students would’ve gotten injured or had been killed.

I lack words to talk about this properly. Whenever news updates appear, I start crying all over again. This is what hate breeds. There is no such thing as “hate in moderation” or “it’s just words”. When a hateful and racist rethoric is spread online and in media it will inspire people to do horrible things. It will inspire hateful actions. It will inspire terrorism. Children and teachers are dead because the politicians and the media couldn’t get their shit together and stand up to the extremist right-wing discourse that is sweeping the nation. It should never have come to this.

Despite my sorrow, I try to write about this anyway. It’s important that people in other countries know what happened.

if you could spread the word i’d really appreciate it

If you don’t know my home situation which in turn ties into my financial situation I don’t have a lot of incoming money, and while I have been able to pay off bills most of the time it’s with the help of friends or donations. I’m on a  plan with my energy company to help cut the cost down, however due to an error on their website my payment last month was delayed and as a result I’ve been kicked off the energy plan. While I’ve been on the phone with them since I’ve received the notice, nothing has helped and every state financial assistance program I’ve been to in the city is just legitimately out of assets to help people because of a lack of funding.

I’ve been able to get about $150 bucks so far, and I’ve managed to get the energy company to only want $1015 to put me back on the plan and avoid a shut off of my lights and electricity. Honestly I’m at the end of my rope in regards to this, my sisters have moved out after months of living here and not paying on bills and it’s just a mess. I haven’t eaten in a bit to scrape everything I can toward paying this, and if you can help out in anyway you can or just spread the word I’d be really fucking grateful.

My paypal is beiialedge@aol.com, like I said if you can just spread the word I’m more than grateful.

who is cutris lepore and what did he do? ive never heard about him before

this asshole is curtis lepore. he’s a famous viner who pled guilty to raping his ex-girlfriend and harassed her and made jokes about it when he didn’t get jail time.

he also lied about doing charity for a domestic abuse center as if him donating charity means he’s a good person after being an unapologetic rapist.

he’s on a bunch of vine and shit that gets spread around tumblr even though he’s the kind of person we should not be endorsing in the slightest but hey! who cares about aiding a rapist get more famous so he can continue to get people to send death threats to his victim because someones safety doesn’t matter as much as that 6 second vine does.

stop fucking reblogging curtis lepore.
