the idea that birth control and abortion are political battles that only benefit cishet women is biphobic, transphobic, and also completely ignores issues of rape and sexual abuse
Look at all the shit Israel has done compared to Palestine.
Do you think that all of Palestine are the terrorists? Or are you human?
When gas disappears… we invent fire.
In Gaza, where war stole everything from us — even our gas cylinders — we refused to freeze or give up.
With nothing but scrap metal, old car oil, and computer fans, people here built handmade burners to cook, boil water, and survive.
We turned trash into life. We turned despair into invention. This is how we fight for existence every single day.
We don't just survive — we create.🔥🛠️💔
Reblog. Raise awareness. Let the world see our resilience.
As for me… I’m Kareman, a mother in Gaza.
I’m doing my best to protect and care for my son, Hammoud, in the middle of this war.
Thanks to a kind friend’s donation, I was able to bring a little light into my child’s life — food, warmth, and a smile.
The photo below is my son smiling next to the food we managed to buy.
That smile is a rare treasure in the middle of fear, displacement, and hunger.😭🫶❤️
If you’re reading this, please… don’t let this be the last smile I see on his face.🙏

From a mother who is still trying
Gaza is already the most intense starvation catastrophe of recent decades. The death toll from hunger and disease may soon surpass the body count from bombs and bullets. The Famine Review Committee reported this week that Gaza is facing “imminent famine”. The Integrated Phase Classification (IPC) system, set up 20 years ago, provides the most authoritative assessments of humanitarian crises. Its figures for Gaza are the worst ever by any metric. It estimates that 677,000 people, or 32% of all Gazans, are in “catastrophic” conditions today and a further 41% are in “emergency” conditions. It expects fully half of Gazans, more than 1 million people, to be in “catastrophe” or “famine” within weeks. A parallel report from the Famine Early Warning System Network of the US Agency for International Development sounds the same alarm. It is the clearest warning that the network has given at any time in its 40-year history. A rule of thumb is that “catastrophe” or “famine” conditions mean a daily death rate from from hunger or disease of two people out of 10,000. About half are children under five years old. The arithmetic is simple. For a population of 1 million, that is 200 deaths per day, 6,000 per month.
Ah for sure the metaphors is simpler than the situation and but for clarification the carving out part I’m mostly referencing the colonisation of Palestinian land that took place after both states were established out of the Ottoman Empire/British protectorate. Plus while there are different definitions of Zionism the philosophy being pushed by the people in charge of Israel right now and what a lot of people seem to be consciously or unconsciously legitimising holds that Israel must take over the entire area and palestine has no right to exist and Palestinians have no right to live there.
( I’d love a equitable one state solution but I don’t see it realistically happening this century given the amount of blood spilled so a roughly equal sized/resourced two state with free movement might be the best we’d see in our lifetimes)
so I had a whole, far more elaborate response on the day you sent this- and then trying to post my internet cut out and the whole write up was lost, and I just don’t have energy to reproduce it
In short summary - I agree with much of what you’ve said here, the variety of views in Zionism is important and key to progress moving forward, and particularly within Israel, supporting leftist, pro-peace, groups is important
I think peace - whatever form it takes, whether it’s two state, one state, whatever - is a long way off, and there’s gonna be a lot of in between stages, and we have to be okay with those in between stages.
FUCK YEAH FUCK I LOVE LIFE
Although I would like to add KOSA is still a big threat any Pro Palestine content will be wiped out please stop KOSA
