I’m really tired of seeing children in Gaza being forced to be resilient through absolute living hell. I hope when Palestine is liberated these kids get spoiled rotten with all the food and toys they want and play to their hearts content without fear of bombs dropping on them

awwwwww!!!! baby girl and an i love you!?!?!! best 👏 day 👏 ever 👏

I think like, the death of Vine and Rabbit, Wikipedia constantly needing to beg for money, Discord depending so heavily on venture capital, Facebook turning towards spying on users to generate a return on all the venture capital that got them started, Adobe creative suite turning into a subscription rather than a single product you buy, the strangulation of streaming entertainment as every company pulls their content and makes it exclusive to their service, are all great examples of how like, it really doesn’t matter if something is legitimately useful, efficient, or beloved, it is next to impossible for a service to exist if it doesn’t make shareholders increasing amounts of money year after year. Which may seem like a “no duh” type of statement, but it’s a very simple window into how the profit motive makes products and services worse, not better. And how that’s not just a matter of certain companies or ceos being bad and greedy on an individual level, but is an inescapable factor of an economy where existence is dependent on generating capital.

“the-tea-from-where-tea-is-called-by-this-name” “the-bread-from-where-bread-is-called-by-this-name” how is that not a useful term?

This is seriously not colonizer bullshit, it’s just one of the common ways that loan words work.

Even symbolic support is not meaningless; with every such gesture you are preventing the claim that no one cares, no one opposes, no one disagrees, no one minds.

White folks ain’t going to reblog this. They want their version of MK Jr. that only said “I have a dream”. 

Guilt tripping white people into reblogging stuff isn’t going to make you have more allies, just saying.

Reblogged.

totally agree, however that is still guilt tripping lol

for all the constant mlk quoting about “content of our character” blah blah blah i hear from white people, how do they think this reflects on their character?

TBH if MLK’s Dream speech is all someone knows, they aren’t an ally. They might be Woke™️ but only in the bad way.
