In Gaza, age is not measured by years, but by the number of times we survive war.
My lifetime is two long uprisings, four devastating wars, and dozens of massacres.
My lifetime is two famines, and a siege that stole half of my life, followed by a fragile tent that barely covers us—
protecting us from neither heat, nor cold, nor rain.
work due to a war injury.

MK-84, 2,000-pound bomb with a JDAM kit hitting a residential building in Gaza.

Israel has used thousands of these bombs - paid for by your tax dollars - in dense civilian areas to perpetrate its genocide of Palestinians, and is still using them. THERE IS NO CEASEFIRE.

Everything you’re fine with Israel, the United States, Germany, and the UK doing to Gaza and Palestinians today is what they’re going to be doing to you tomorrow.

(In case that makes you care if nothing else does.)

If you know people on social.cologne who aren’t Zionists/genocide supporters please let them know that they cannot see posts by me and others who oppose Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people as our instances and accounts are blocked by their Zionist/pro-genocide server.

I can only assume Zionist/pro-genocide servers will not be allowed according to mastodon.social’s new server covenant and suggested as safe spaces to newcomers to the fediverse (including Palestinians suffering through genocide, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid) but it would be good to have official confirmation of this.

It’s time for people (and mastodon servers) to be unapologetically unambiguous about which side of history they stand on.

New instance, new #introduction. Edit: I have supplemented this introduction with replies to this post.

I see this instance has a *nice* *long* character limit for posts.

I have a Ph.D. in Human Science (2016, Saybrook University), which is about the experience of being human in social contexts. It is the mother of the social sciences but is now, at least in the English speaking world, and at least as far as I can tell, a dead field.

I studied #conservatism for my #dissertation. And yes, the #Democrats are far too #conservative for me.

Once upon a time, a very, very long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I was a computer programmer. It was the wrong career choice.

I am a #vegan #LibertarianSocialist (recovering #anarchist) mostly from the #SanFrancisco #BayArea in #California, presently residing in #Pittsburgh, #Pennsylvania, hoping to move to #erie

In #kyriarchy, I mostly focus on #classism and #ageism, but since arriving in Pittsburgh, have been confronted with blatant #racism (and yes, many white people here do see it). But #SocialJustice has to be for everybody; to focus on any one identity, to the exclusion of others, is nothing more than to elevate that identity over that of the predominantly wealthy white males who are now in charge.

I oppose all #imperialism and #SettlerColonialism, not just U.S. and NATO imperialism and settler-colonialism. Having lived on the underbelly of #capitalism most of my life, I am #anticapitalist and ferociously opposed to #neoliberalism. I oppose physical and structural violence.

Human beings have #HumanRights. These rights are not constrained by their governments' failures to ratify certain human rights treaties.

#Borders exist to mark off territory controlled by elites whose competition accounts for most if not all wars and to deny human beings on the "wrong" side of an arbitrary line rights and privileges available on the "right" side. This cannot be justified ethically. I am hostile to #xenophobia

Finally, I am pessimistic about the future of humanity. #COVID19 and the #ClimateCrisis demonstrate our unfitness for survival.

For those who imagine Zionist Israelis might "come to their senses", pull back, or give up of their own accord:

There's nothing they won't do.

They'll lie about it, yes, but they won't stop.

It's their century-long project to displace & replace indigenous Palestinians.

& they're accelerating, not withdrawing.

They won't stop until we force our genocide-enabling governments to BDS them to their knees.

on why settler-colonialism is an aboslute evil, how a people and their culture co-exist and evolve with nature, how their language is specific to their way of life, and how their way of life is shaped by the land on which they live. Ultimately, uprooting a people, forcing them to move to another land, necessarily destroys their way of life and erases their culture.

This film makes very clear what motivates Jewish pro-Palestinian people in the US to protest, and how their Jewish faith makes their conviction in peace and humanitarianism so powerful.

Journalists in the UK are being detained under the Terrorism Act for reporting on the Israeli-American genocide of the Palestinian people.

This is fascism.

Under “Labour”, no less.

(Not surprising, of course, for one colonialist to support another.)
