Today, I want to speak about the biggest inspiration for queer people in my country, who was killed today. I want to speak about Kesaria Abramidze.
The first trans person in Sakartvelo who publicly came out as transgender.
The woman that brought a massive amount of queer awareness into the general public despite the queerphobia constantly directed towards her.
The woman that smiled and never gave up despite the people that hated her.
The woman that did everything she could to become a mother.
The woman that loved art.
The woman that, despite poverty, hardship, and loneliness, lived a life she desired.
The woman that stood up for every marginalized group, and always for every woman.
She inspired me into being a man that I am today. A man who is not afraid of being trans no matter everything that is happening. A man who is not backing down from becoming comfortable in his body one day. A man who wants to help and guide other trans people. A man who does something kind for people. I stayed strong for my friend who was also grieving her today, but now I'm home and all of those feelings are pouring out. I will forever be proud of Kesaria and everything she has done not just for queer people, but people in general. She helped everyone, her kindness is endless.
We lost someone beautiful today. Rest in peace.

The poll stated, “If it is found that there is a basis for suspicion against the five suspects, how should they be treated?”
A large majority of Israeli Jews, 65 percent, responded, “They should be disciplined at the command level only.”
In contrast, only 21 percent said they should be prosecuted. The remaining 14 percent said, “I don’t know.”

an investigation by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz confirmed that Gazan civilians are being kidnapped by the IDF and sent as human shields to search tunnels and houses before IDF soldiers enter. they also confirmed that this is being done with the full knowledge of senior Israeli officers.

earlier this year Baerbock and Scholz claimed to have seen non-existent rape videos of Hamas militiamen. now there's actual, real videos of IDF soldiers raping arbitrarily imprisoned Palestinians, and naturally there's complete silence

the rape accusations against gaiman are getting the same media playbook as the accusation against biden a few years back---first most mainstream and legacy outlets are never going to take the story, it gets broken somewhere niche or less prestigious, the bigger publications don't follow up with the relevant sources or authorities, and then the mainstream narrative is that this is a fringe story peddled by weirdos with an agenda (anyone remember biden's accuser getting called a russian disinformation agent or whatever?) and it gets swept under the rug. ppl love to act like rape accusations are sooo rhetorically powerful now just because a few celebrity men lost netflix deals or whatever in 2017 but we are literally watching in real time how these stories are suppressed and publicity-managed out of the spotlight
