Free Palestine. As a Laotian, my dad had to leave his country Laos during the Vietnam War because of how many bombs (270 million) were being dropped by the US. And the bombing of Laos wasn’t recognized until 40 years later, when the damage had already been done.

So please, I plead with you not to let the same thing happen to Palestine. Don’t ignore the genocide that is taking place. Don’t let these crimes of the Israeli government be forgotten and don’t let the Palestinian people be forgotten. And call for a ceasefire!! 🇵🇸

P.s and when talking about this conflict do not fall into supporting Islamophobia or Antisemitism cause neither are acceptable and please don’t attack random innocent Jewish or Palestinian people on the internet.

This is Sepideh Gholian. She is a worker’s activist who lead the workers of Iran’s sugar factory in their strike. The workers hadn’t been paid for seven months and were shot at when they protested for their rights.

Islamic republic of Iran sent 30 MEN to arrest this woman and she is in jail to this day as are many other workers who were arrested in that strike 5 years ago.

This is Sattar Beheshti. Iranian worker and blogger who was imprisoned for speaking about the condition of workers in Iran and died as a result of torture. The government said he had sustained unexplained head trauma-exactly like Mahsa.

These are only two examples. If you are a communist-leftist of any kind and you do not speak up against islamic republic of iran shame on you. You don’t give a shit about workers you just belong in an anti-American circlejerk online.

I know I’m a little late to this one, with Carlee Russell.

It’s sickening that when a young, conventionally attractive nursing student goes “missing” and is revealed to be faking, we still give her sympathy and care that should go to women who are in true peril. It’s sickening that 64000+ black women are missing and nobody put the same time, care or effort into finding them or sharing their stories.

These are people’s sisters, daughters, friends, wives, cousins, colleagues, these are women with lives and communities and hopes and dreams. The sad reality? So shockingly many of these women will never be found alive. They’ll never come home. They won’t get to come home on their own volition like Carlee did, they won’t get to go home safe and sound. Their stories won’t get the same coverage that Carlee got. Say their names, remember their faces and share their stories.

Carlee was in no shadow of a doubt struggling with something to fabricate her own abduction. I wish she found another way to deal with it, instead of this.

One woman’s fabrication took so many resources from women who truly needed them. It’s sick.

this is not my post but one of many people who have lost a loved one to what’s going on in Iran.

Interview with Nele, Nika Shakarami’s girlfriend by Zeit Magazine

‘‘Nika loved the moon, and it became an important symbol in their relationship, says Nele. When they missed each other, they would say: “We don’t live in the same country, but beneath the same sky.” Sometimes, Nika would tell Nele over the phone that she was looking at the moon, saying: You should go outside too, Nele, so we can look at it together. They even called each other “my moonie.” Or Niki and Neli. Or Haku and Chihiro, like the main characters in the anime film “Spirited Away,” which both of them loved. The story involves a courageous boy helping a shy girl escape a world full of monsters. “That was us,” Nele says today‘‘

Nika Shakarami was a 16 year old brave Iranian girl who was kidnapped by the police during the ongoing protests in Iran, brutally tortured, raped and murdered in cold blood. Her burial was on her birthday. Say her name, Nika Shakarami

Did anyone else grow up with Yuna even though I haven’t listened to all her discography. I remember as a kid I would listen to her Nocturnal album over and over again. I especially loved the songs I want you back, Someone who can, Colors, and Rescue

p.s I think her and Usher did a collab and she also did one with Owl City for a movie I think .

Muslim women are taking off their headscarves and cutting their hair on TikTok to protest Iran's hijab rules following the death of 22-year-

Women post TikToks protesting the death of Mahsa Amini in Iranian police custody after she was detained on suspicion of breaking hijab-weari

"Women in Iran are taking off their headscarves and cutting their hair to protest the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini.

Amini died in a Tehran hospital on Friday after being arrested by Iran's Islamic morality police on Tuesday on suspicion of not correctly wearing a hijab — a head covering traditionally worn by Muslim women and is mandatory in Iran — according to reports. 

Tehran police said Amini was arrested for the purpose of "justification and education" about the hijab, and told her family she died of a "sudden" heart attack. Her family say she had no known heart conditions, and witnesses said they saw police beating her up inside a van, according to BBC News.

On September 18, the day of Amini's funeral, protests erupted in Iran, with women removing their headscarves and waving them in the air to protest the hijab-wearing rules that led to the arrest of the 22-year-old."
