OCTOBER 26 2014 - Australian activist Robert Martin films the Israeli Army stealing children's playground equipment in Bil'in, Occupied Palestine.

"This is what happens here in Bil'in. They come over here and try to steal the children's stuff. This is what everyone misses. The international news needs to see whats going on here. They're intimidating the children. They're doing everything they can."

"Look at them- an international person comes and they run. If I wasn't here, they might have shot one of the kids."

The Israeli army told the Palestinians if they didn't leave they would shoot Martin in the leg. Eventually, the Israeli Army retreated but not before shooting a tear gas canister in Martin's direction.

So Hamas have been digging tunnels in Sweden from Palestine? Wow talk about efficiency 😑

Israhell once again is giving out clown energy.

Liars and schemers.

Thank goodness for social media and accessible internet. If it was 20 years ago, they'd have gotten away with it.

Almost 1AM and this exchange brought me to tears.

Hear here, we’ll never stop till the world listens. It’s not forever. It’s now.

Absolutely inhumane. Psychos.

its so weird seeing posts that mock uncle jim for worrying about li ming's queerness as though his dead boyfriend's parents (legally) stealing his entire life savings and leaving him to manage a restaurant business specifically because gay couples aren't legally recognized as couples wasn't what put him in a cycle of crushing debt and endless poverty in the first place

sooo i originally joined this fandom through twitter (mistake #1) and dipped because it was a toxic hellhole of cliques and shipping delusion.

tumblr was initially a safespace. and i love the like-minded friends i’ve found here. but for the past week, my inbox has been full of the most cruel and disgusting abuse i’ve experienced. i made this blog because i was tired of seeing people reduce nicola and luke into pawns for their shipping fantasies, then lash out when those real human beings didn’t act like fanfic characters. i’ve consistently called out hate — toward jake, toward antonia, toward nicola, toward luke. never once did i say anything cruel about any of them.

but apparently saying “hey, maybe spreading harmful rumours or harassing real people is...bad?” is cause for a firing squad now. dozens of faceless anons jumped into my inbox to tell me i’m scum. actual quotes include: – “a white man’s whore” (calling women whores in the 21st century! cute!) – “pathetic scum on earth” (ironic but ok) – comparing me to women obsessed with serial killers (????) – and, my personal fave: that i (a muslim, neurodivergent woman of colour) am “as privileged as the white man i stan.”

i'm not giving you the satisfaction of responding to ur pathetic little rants btw. i get it. something is missing in ur life so u feel purpose and power in anonymously abusing strangers online. ur purposeless and pathetic and i'm just another person u can take those frustrations out on.

but you’re not revolutionaries. you’re not woke. you’re just miserable cowards hiding behind grey icons, spewing venom at strangers online because your own life is so small and sad that bullying feels like a win. you're not deep. you're just pathetic. and no, you don’t hate luke. you obsess over him. you know more about his life than his IMDb page. that’s not hate — that’s just creepy parasocial lust rotting from the inside out.

so! anons are off. if you’ve got something to say, say it with chest or shut the fuck up. i'm done offering a platform for your hatred just so you can feel something for five seconds. get help. get lost. and get the fuck out of my inbox.
