Dude, how can it be that every single fucking thing about US politics trends on here immediately, yet when 27 countries in the EU vote and there's a historic, alarming lurch to the right (far right parties have won the elections in Italy, Austria and France), it's not even trending? In Germany, the AFD, a right-wing populist, anti-democratic, racist party with a wing that is officially extremist (read: Nazis) and is in parts monitored by the office for the protection of the constitution, is the second strongest party (also among 17-24 year olds!). Guess I'll die.

as the first day of eid al-adha (the feast of sacrifice) which commemorates the prophet ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to Gd passes, gaza death toll rises above 37,700. palestinians are not able to observe the celebrations as they did before, but they are still celebrating as much as they can. @ma7moudgaza2 shares the tradition of gifting cash to children. 50 ILS seen in the picture = around $20 CAD.
on this day, please support mahmoud who is now seeking to evacuate his family of 5 by matching his own kindness and donating a similar amount -- or if not possible, even the minimum. the fundraiser is verified and still only a bit above 1/5 of its goal.
I feel like ive seen quite a few gfms getting passed around and ive observed that a lot of them have stories of such exceptional people who have achieved so much, or were going to before the genocide cut it off. And i really commend them for it, i really do.
But it breaks my heart that palestinians reaching out to us feel the need to have to prove that they are they are good people who are worth the support, like theyre only worth being supported if they had a good gpa or were exceptional in some way.
They shouldnt have to prove that theyre beneficial to the economy somehow to be worth the support. They shouldnt have to be exceptional to deserve help. Our governments are putting them through this, both in the west and around the world too. They shouldnt have to prove anything. We owe them this
