Huh. So another W from Macklemore.
this is quite possibly the funniest way I’ve ever seen a cartoon “subtly” hint at a character being gay to beat network censorship bc oh my fucking god
Me: portraying Hamas as unreasonable and subhuman only suits to serve Israel and justify ethnic cleansing. We must deconstruct how they are portrayed and while not excusing what they’ve done, understanding them beyond the label of terrorist, which is wildly racialized and has been used to malign several freedom fighters who are working toward decolonization/liberation, is vital to understanding their political aims. What if we held the same nuance for them? Why is Israel allowed to brutalize and maim civilians but aren’t labeled terrorists? Why is colonial violence so justified that the violence from occupied people is never understood to be a necessary means of resistance. How can we challenge the narratives we hold that continuously paints a resistance group as subhuman stupid animals that must be wiped off the face of the planet. The best way to end the violence of Hamas is to end the violence of settler colonialism.
Smart people with the best reading comprehension: okay but they are terrorists though?? Do you condemn them?
can we all just unanimously agree not to make assumptions about experiences people have had irl based on someone's takes about a piece of fiction no matter how """media illiterate""" it is

I've been on Twitter a lot more for the past few months
Thinking of moving to Cohost...
