Potent Minimalist Art Sends A Strong Message About Police And Vigilante Brutality In America

“Child Abuse: YOU can prevent it.”

A Korean anti-child abuse PSA.

I for one think this is absolutely fantastic and we should have more than one LGBTQIA+ flag if need be

It is perfect!

#LGBTQ

Absolutely fucking disgusting

you can’t deny the existence of rape culture when our judicial system is ran by these gross ass men who justify it 

watch until the very end

The scary part is that you could know one or even met one briefly and wouldn't be even known

Catherine wants to make people more aware about how important it is to be aware of these issues.

She knew him for 20 years. He worked as a police officer. 90 days as a punishment is such a pathetic sentence. Total rubbish. this guy is evil and who knows how many victims of his assaults have stayed unknown. What a scums serve in the law enforcement… 

Please share.

hey, so pride in bulgaria is not  going very well.

the parade in our capital Sofia will be on the 12th of june, and there have already been several instances of harassment of lgbtq folks by neonazis.

luckily, i’m not openly or visibly queer, but as a bi girl this is getting kind of scary. i can see the tension building up for some kind of a violent action.

Here’s a link in bulgarian documenting recent queerphobic attacks.

Here’s a translation by me, including some clarifications:

15 may - the first burgas pride in history (burgas is a bulgarian city by the sea) is surrounded and attacked with eggs, cucumbers, rocks and smoke balls by counterprotesters, organized by Vuzrajdane, translated Renascence (a relatively new far-right party) and PUC (Parents United for Children).

25 may - a presentation of a children’s book including same-sex parents in The Steps (a lgbt+ space) is attacked and surrounded by supporters of “traditional values“.

27 may - the presentation of 2 books by Youth LGBT organization “Deystvie“ (translates ”Action”) in Radio Plovdiv is attacked and surrounded by a group of nationalists.

30 may - a projection of the movie “Shells“ by Slava Doycheva is occupied by around 20 young men with Lukovmarsh and Bulgarian National Union symbols (both of these orgs are fascist as fuck), led by the youth branch of VMRO (far-right party)

1 june - on the opening day of the community center “Rainbow Hub“, the entire front door was vandalized with homophobic stickers.

1 june - in the underpass of metrostation Serdika, 6 men from Bulgarian National Union spread homophobic propaganda, harass a person who they recognize from the queer community and threaten him. (luckily a big antifascist crowd gathered and helped the dude)

1 june - the entire facade of The Steps is vandalized with eggs and  foam.

“What rights do you lack?“ “Who’s hindering you?“ What about the right to watch a movie? To read a book? To gather for a peaceful protest against everyday harassment or for a celebration of your community? As wrote the director Slava Doycheva: “Next month will be a daily risk for us - I don’t know how many more examples we need… There are moments in history where you should choose which side are you on.“

angle is bad but this man is burning a rainbow flag

this is a news source saying “a football group blocks Radio Plovdiv for presenting gay books“

“we continue the successful fight against LGBTI propaganda. Every day if we should“

the eggs and foam on “the steps“

i’d appreciate if you could rb this.

EDIT

To those who reblogged this - thank you so much! I decided to add some resources so you can help lgbt+ people in bulgaria.

Here is a link to 2 petitions you can sign. You can also access lots of relevant information (mostly on legal affairs concerning lgbtq people) on this site, some of it in english.

You can donate to the organization Bilitis via paypal, bank transfers and patreon. It spreads awareness and participates in different campaigns and projects, it deals with legal matters - the basic ngo stuff. But it also provides material aid to queer people struggling because of the pandemic and group therapy for queer youth.

You can also support some of the more radical anarcho-queer voices at Violetki Collective and donate to them on paypal. (also come to the server. it’s based, you can get info about events and actions and talk to fellow radicals)

not a dream

this might be a little different, but today I am here to expose vile behavior of a white tiktok user that has gained 30,000 followers on harassing Korean men, and getting away with it by trying to appear/be cute

although she’s deleted most of her videos by now (she probably got called out before or received rightful backlash), her account used to be full of proof of such behavior, and she recently went back to posting similar content (does she think people forgot?)

grabbing random people you don’t even know and forcing your touch and hugs on them is sexual harassment and abuse

her @ is 8_alesha

this screenshot of her account was sent to me, and that’s how I became aware of her vile behavior

she’s catering to her fellow koreaboo young audience by continuing on to do stuff like this, and I don’t think she should be allowed to get away with it anymore

before she deletes her most recents, here she is grabbing a random boy on the streets, making him uncomfortable, posing with him and trying to appear cute while he is trying to get away

here’s another example - it’s clear that the boys and men in her videos don’t know how to react and are uncomfortable, but she’s getting away with everything because she knows they’re all too polite to make a scene and are caught off guard

this is so messed up

does anyone have any idea what can be done? can her account be reported? I’ve heard this kind of behavior is a trend among some white tiktokers living in Korea and Japan and that they have a niche audience of kids who eat this up, which is so messed up, we should not be normalizing this kind of abhorrent behavior

I dreamt that me and a bunch of other people were in a living gamestop store that had legs was taking us somewhere and during our journey I was yelling at Ransom from knives out for killing my parents while he tried to explain himself. When the store stopped we were near a zen garden and I looked at the koi.
