How do you feel about the Sabrina Carpenter discourse?

honestly extremely funny that people are so mad about an image that's so tame. people are talking about it like it's hardcore pussy out p o r n and then you google it and it actually looks like a perfume commercial that decided to get a tiny bit risqué

greta was time's person of the year a few years ago. she was adored by all liberal world leaders and parties. and when she learnt about people's struggle under occupation and colonialism, she stood in solidarity with them . she now stands with palestine and armenia and kashmir and every oppressed person in the world. she could have been rich as fuck by simply remaining as a climate activist. yet she chose to do the right thing. i love her for her integrity.

A post to read and share absolutely

The media are lying about the Freedom Flotilla and Rima Hassan.

Let’s set the record straight against the echo chambers of genocide apologists saturating television and radio. For over 30 hours now, Netanyahu and the genocidal Israeli government have been forcibly detaining MEP Rima Hassan and three French nationals. They were illegally arrested despite the United Nations demanding a safe and secure passage for the Freedom Flotilla on its way to Gaza. This ship's mission was to break the blockade that is starving the people of Gaza.

The genocidal Israeli government is now imposing an intolerable and illegal condition for the release of Rima Hassan and the French citizens: they are being pressured to sign a document stating that they entered Israeli territory illegally. Rightfully, Rima Hassan and the French nationals have refused to sign this false document.

It is false because they did not enter Israeli territory illegally. They were illegally intercepted in international waters as they approached Palestinian territory and its maritime zone, which is itself illegally controlled and occupied by the Israeli state.

Mainstream media are repeating Netanyahu’s propaganda talking points word for word. They refer to the Flotilla as a “cruise,” they call it a “PR stunt” in an attempt to downplay the immense courage behind the Freedom Flotilla. Some even go as far as to claim that Rima Hassan does not wish to be expatriated and is refusing repatriation. None of this is true. They are lying live on air. They are carrying out the same mass disinformation campaign that has been ongoing for more than 20 months in an effort to erase the reality of the genocide. They are complicit.

And Emmanuel Macron is complicit too. Why hasn’t he condemned this illegal arrest even once? Why is he allowing French citizens to be illegally detained by a genocidal government?

The answer is quite clear: Just last week, he approved the delivery of fourteen tons of French-made assault rifle components to an Israeli arms manufacturer.

In short: French ammunition is killing Palestinians while France allows its own citizens to languish in Israeli detention centers—facilities that have already been condemned by the UN for multiple human rights violations.

Rima Hassan and the French citizens must be released immediately and unconditionally.

As a French citizen, I can testify that the majority of the French population supports Palestine and condemns Israel. The results of the surprise legislative elections imposed by Macron a year ago confirm this. Those elections were won by a coalition of left-wing parties, including La France Insoumise—of which Rima Hassan is a member—as well as the Greens.

Unfortunately, Macron, dishonest and driven by a fragile ego, never accepted this defeat. He appointed only right-wing politicians with far-right mindsets as ministers. He would rather let someone like Hitler stay in power than allow a single victorious left-wing MP from the last elections to become a minister.

Moreover, since Macron’s first election in 2017, all the major corporations and media outlets have been privatized and are now controlled by right-wing, far-right, and particularly Zionist billionaires and millionaires (like Vincent Bolloré or Bernard Arnault to name just two). As a result, French mainstream media have increasingly—and alarmingly—turned into pure propaganda machines serving the bourgeois, promoting racist, Zionist, and especially Islamophobic narratives.

They do not hesitate to scapegoat Muslims—especially veiled Muslim women—in order to distract public attention and blame them for all of France’s problems, problems which are in fact caused by the same capitalist bourgeois elites who continue to impoverish the working class to enrich themselves further. They have clearly taken a page from the playbook of Trumpism (and Hitler's nazism).

Since October 7th, their Zionist propaganda has been relentless. Macron even allowed Netanyahu to spew his propaganda during the week of June 6, 2024—daring to exploit the memory of France’s occupation and D-Day to weaponize Holocaust trauma and justify his ongoing genocide by portraying himself as a victim. I have never felt so insulted as a French citizen as I did that day.

Macron has allowed Zionist propaganda to dominate all private and mainstream media outlets. Peaceful, non-violent pro-Palestinian protesters denouncing the genocide are violently arrested by police forces, whose brutality continues to go unchecked. Netanyahu is allowed to fly through French airspace even though he is under international arrest warrant, and France is legally required to arrest him. Instead, they sell him weapons.

I don’t even have the words to fully express the disgust and humiliation this man makes us, the French people, endure. If you believe this government represents its people, I swear to you—it does not.

We are trying to fight every single day, even though we are beaten down, growing poorer, losing more and more of our social protections, getting arrested for protesting. Racism and homophobia are becoming normalized because of their propaganda.

Of course, Rima Hassan has been their enemy from the start. As a Franco-Palestinian MEP, she possesses an intimate and complete understanding of the Israeli genocide and the Zionist propaganda that has existed since 1948. Coming from a Palestinian family of survivors and resisters, it is obvious why she would threaten an entire system built on bourgeois Zionist interests.

They have always tried to silence her, to discredit her. But what they didn’t anticipate was that, by joining the Freedom Flotilla, Rima would expose the contradictions in Israel’s and Zionism’s false narratives and propaganda.

Israel and Zionists claimed that it was Hamas who was blocking the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza. But when humanitarian aid comes by sailboat, they themselves prevent its arrival and arrest those involved—without any legal or valid justification, and in international waters.

Since yesterday, thousands of people have been protesting across France, especially in Paris. Some have set up tents in Place de la République, declaring that they will not leave until the blockade is lifted and Rima, along with the others, is fully and unconditionally released.

They are exposing the cognitive dissonance between Zionist propaganda and Israel’s actual actions. This will help awaken those who hadn’t yet paid close enough attention to realize the gravity and urgency of what is unfolding.

The reason why the bourgeoisie, the media, and right- and far-right political figures participating in the Zionist propaganda system harbor such intense hatred toward Rima Hassan right now is not only because, alongside the Freedom Flotilla team—including Greta Thunberg—she has once again brought the spotlight back onto Gaza, but also because Rima, like Palestine itself, is becoming a symbol. A symbol not only of the movement to end the genocide perpetrated by Israel, but of the broader fight to dismantle the colonial, far-right, racist, and capitalist system these people represent.

If Israel loses, they lose as well.

At every rally I’ve attended over the past 19 months, at every uprising against any form of oppression, every time the state has chosen to serve the destruction of the planet, to kill our children, to violate the rights of migrants, of women, of minorities—anywhere in the world—whether I was there in person or witnessing it through images: I saw keffiyehs.

And this is only the beginning.

They know they’ve already lost. This unleashed, frenzied violence we see everywhere marks the end of a system. They can feel it—and they are afraid.

When words no longer suffice, when their ideas no longer hold, all they have left is barbarity.

They have lost.

Every new victim, every mutilated and emaciated body only lengthens the already endless list of their crimes.

It’s over.

They have lost everything—starting with their souls.

Free Palestine, free world. We are all children of Gaza.

The Great Hunt

After an amazing 8 weeks under the mentorship of Paul Scott Canavan, this piece is complete! It's been a fun challenge pushing my skills to the limit and leveling up. Learned a ton both in a technical sense but also in a brain-space sense.
