Digital cartoon depicting two Hawaiian people in traditional clothing staring at a huge poster in a movie theatre. Movie poster is a replica of the poster for the live action remake of ‘Lilo & Stitch’, but with the movie title changed to text saying “surrender your children to the state and pursue a shiny life in america”. This is a satire of the new message being pushed by the movie adaptation in stark contrast with the message of the original movie.

A pretty irresponsible message at the best of times, but right NOW? Sheesh.

it's a great honour that she thinks I, a nobody asian kiwi, am even remotely related to the Resistance

but alas, I can't take credit for the hijacking of any planes

Tweet from Ahmed Hassan on twitter: From the beginning of human history until today, tyrants, criminals, and savages have tried to establish the predator-prey equation in the human world. They are trying to make it a reality, and for this to be imposed on the world. They divide humans into two categories: one category that does what it wants, takes what it wants, commands and forbids, and the other category that either flees or accepts whatever happens to them. Thus, humans have become slaves to other humans. When we accept that our fate is in someone else's hands, When a slave stops thinking of himself as free, he becomes a slave. When a society under occupation stops thinking of resistance, the occupier triumphs. Yes, we know the consequences of resisting Israel's occupation. Yes, we know and understand Israel's brutality, which is why we decided to resist it. If we had known that Israel would respect human rights and children's rights and show mercy to the innocent, we would not have taken up arms against it. If we had known that this ugly world would defend us, we would have contented ourselves with chants and demands. If people feared the brutality of the tyrant, if people did not sacrifice to rid themselves of criminals, if the culture of resistance was forgotten, the world would be divided between a people who claim God chose them and a people who obey and carry out all the orders of the other people so they don't get angry and start killing and destroy everything.

I wish I could make the ppl talking about "both sides" understand this. Violence when resisting occupation and tyranny is not equal to violence when stealing land and resources. The former wouldn't exist without the latter, so it is the latter that must stop first.

I'm sorry, I usually untag the OP when I start shit in their replies but I haven't figured out how to do that here, so the whole quarrel must have gotten sent to your notifs 🙏 my bad

I agree, it's difficult to negotiate any peace with people who mass-murder, terrorise and hold hostages.

"Palestinian violence" only started when their country was invaded and they were forcibly expelled.

Just don't invade and expel people and they won't do any violence? Hello??

The fact that the Resistance groups can put up such a fight despite not having billions of dollars in western backing is actually so based

Like ofc Israel can pull off huge attacks, they have all the weapons and an endless credit card from daddy USA, w/e

The Ansarallah hijacking was also so cool

Oh nooo, won't anyone think of the suffering of the oppressors?? Have compassion for those who traveled so many miles to massacre and pillage, we're the REAL victims here 💔

no, aren't there enough liberals here already? put more communists in here

As always, the colonizer believes the life of one colonizer is more valuable than the lives of millions of colonized.

You should be on your knees thanking us daily that we don't enact retribution against you for your crimes. Europeans would be extinct if we killed you like you killed us.

Gaza’s youngest influencer aged 11 among children killed by Israeli strikes Yaqeen Hammad offered tips for surviving life under bombardment and is just one of dozens of minors who have died

"She was also Gaza’s youngest influencer, offering practical survival tips for daily life under bombardment, such as advice on how to cook with improvised methods when there was no gas.

'I try to bring a bit of joy to the other children so that they can forget the war. '”

Liberals are so used to being on "the left" in American politics that they don't realise they would be centre-right everywhere else.

Like I hate my country's main rw party but even they are to the left of US democrats on many issues. They'd never toughen the border or remove public healthcare.

I'm sorry, I got this error message when I tried to donate. It happens all the time with campaigns on chuffed and I haven't been able to figure out why. I'll repost your link.

News article from 1899 about the annual conference of the Federation of American Zionists and their intention to colonize Palestine

Palestinians resisting their occupation and colonization for over a century are the heroes.

You only think the resistance are "villains" because you identify with barbarous white colonizers who murder millions to steal land and wealth.

It's one party doing a good cop/bad cop performance. BlueMAGA libs are just gullible enough to believe the good cop.

Palestinian citizens of Israel are about 20% of the population.
So if they're polling a representative sample, a good chunk of the non-genocidal responses probably come from them, right?

Doesn't it mean almost ALL Israeli Jews want Gaza ethnically cleansed?

I mentioned this before but I recall being messaged by a couple of accounts who were impersonating journos from Gaza. Those were definitely not real, but they didn't ask for money directly so idk what their game was.

Haven't been here for a while and my DMs are full of message requests from deleted accounts. It's a little unnerving. I don't know if they're being suppressed of if they were scammers taking advantage of the situation.

ah yeah they disappeared

can't say I know why for sure, but people were posting their @ around and there were complaints about false positives (everyone with 🔻 was "Pro-Hamas", even if they were Zs using it ironically) so they were attracting a lot of drama from all sides

I'm gonna have to post #art and reopen comms again 😰💸

Yea the list included everyone with 🔻 in their name and bio (even the ones who are using it as an arrow or for 🔺🔻🔺🔻🔺 aesthetics)

Both the user and all their lists have disappeared now. They were catching flak for the high rate of false positives on their lists so maybe they gave up.

Doonesbury newspaper comic by Garry Trudeau for August 26, 1982 Panel 1: Man: What is it now, sergeant? Sergeant: We just got the final count on the terrorist evacuees, sir. Panel 2: Man: Does this include the terrorist wounded from the terrorist hospitals? Sergeant: Yes, sir. Along with the terrorist doctors and terrorist nurses. Panel 3: Roland: Wait a minute. What is all this "terrorist" business? Wasn't begin once a "terrorist," too? Sergeant: Mr. Begin was NOT a terrorist. He was a freedom fighter. Panel 4: Roland: Oh. Man: How many terrorist relatives? Sergeant: 3,000 terrorist wives and 7,000 baby terrorists.

this comic is over 40 years old and somehow they're still using that "terrorist relatives and terrorist wives and baby terrorists" justification
