what a coincidence
Palestians have received greater international aid per capita than Europe during the Marshall Plan.
But because they are ruled by rich mad men with disregard to human life, including the lives of own civilians, that couldn't be enough to uplift them.
Which was always obvious, but people insisted of it not being obvious.
so let’s talk about pantone and it’s removal from adobe products. i have a lot to say about this topic and only a limited amount of time!
I've seen discussions sometimes about how fanfiction-based fandom culture is heavily influenced and dominated by people who are not cis men.
One thing I haven't seen discussed as much though is how much of fandom in general is shaped by neurodivergent people.
I mean, you have autistic and ADHD people with special interests or hyperfixations collecting information and writing detailed meta, connecting very strongly with characters and fandoms. I would not be surprised if the percentage of autistics in fandom communities was significantly higher than in the general public.
And that's not even getting into other types of neurodivergencies and how they influence fandom culture.
I sometimes see people try to divorce fandom culture from the idea of being a "geek", and I understand that this is sometimes because of the association with the sexist geek stereotype, but I also know that there is a connection between the two concepts, and it's probably us neurodivergent people.
No surprise to anyone paying attention: a new report in The Telegraph today confirms the BBC’s blatant bias against Israel, with skewed coverage since October 7th.
People consume this news like it’s coming from an impartial source— clearly, it’s not. The real question is: how much longer will we tolerate biased reporting that fuels hate and distorts the truth?
Were you surprised? Let me know
It’s wild that every time Israel rescues or recovers a hostage or hostages that antisemites anti-Zionists will come crawling out of woodwork to talk about how bad it was that Israel did so. All the while they’re still justifying Hamas’s actions on October 7th and since then.
“This thing can’t possibly be an antisemitic dog whistle, it’s just a commonly used phrase!”
My dude you are so close to understanding how pervasive antisemitism is
Just to remind you, this is the wonderful record that UNRWA schools have, when it comes to the education they provide to Palestinian kids (and we can all figure out what it translates into):
