This is your reminder that your scientific society is complicit in genocide:

Platforming genocidal tools of Israel (control of the Palestinian land, nature, natural resources) was not enough for @agu.org so they had sponsorship with Lockheed Martin to help IOF to commit genocide.
divyampersaud.com
The CEO of AGU made $548,612 in 2023 while the 2024 meeting was sponsored by Lockheed Martin, which provides the following to the IOF to commit genocide in #Gaza:

Attack helicopter parts
Cargo aircraft
F-35s
F-16s
Multiple launch rocket systems
Hellfire missiles
Armored vehicles

The place I was in before the displacement was completely destroyed
Now homeless and insecure.
I need $800 to pay for transporting my furniture to Gaza and to rent a room for my daughters
Winter is coming and my daughters can't live in tents

Seeing Ms. Rachel say exactly what needs to be said to Obama is so damn refreshing
Dear President Obama,
I saw in your statement you said "Israeli families" & "the people of Gaza."
Palestinians have families, too.
This kind of language contributes to dehumanization. Dehumanization is part of what caused so many to stay silent as 20,000 children were killed in this genocide.
I've sat with wonderful Palestinian families from Gaza. They look at their children just like we look at ours - with all the love & hope in the world.
Love,
Ms Rachel

Bluesky did it again and took away a Palestinian's voice. Because these platforms love silencing... This is Sakher's new account, please follow him and also if you can help, help.

My name is Sakher, and this is my new account — after my old one was suddenly taken down.
For the past 4 days, I’ve been silent… not because I wanted to, but because I lost my only voice — the place where I used to speak to the world.
More talk in the comments….

Rebuilding lives is very difficult after a genocide. Oppression continues unfortunately. The fight is not over. Don't forget that and don't stop holding the hands of Palestinians. Here is Reem who was a student before the genocide. Now she needs your help.
reeeeeeem.bsky.social
I’m Reem, from Gaza. The war may be over, but we still live in the middle of its ashes. I was a college student. I was studying, dreaming and planning a life of hope but I lost everything in my home. My family’s livelihood has been erased💔😭

Our fight is not done. Ceasefire is just a small first step. We keep saying Free Palestine. Siege continues, the apartheid continues. Don't think that now that there's a ceasefire these families don't need as much. They actually need more than ever to rebuild their lives.

10 hours left 🚨 Please refocus—support STOPPED. These six families & a camp STILL desperately need urgent help.

The immediately need is food & supplies—and soon, transportation, costs of rebuilding, and more in the next, uncertain days.

This is my daughter who suffers daily, simply because she is from Gaza, without committing any crime. Does she deserve all this suffering? For the sake of humanity, don't leave her alone. If you're browsing, please donate to my family. She is humanity.

Massive destruction can be seen following the withdrawal of Israeli occupation forces from the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City.
A wide view of the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City shows massive destruction after Israeli forces’ withdrawal. The scene is filled with piles of rubble, collapsed concrete, twisted metal rods, and destroyed buildings on both sides of a dusty road. Most structures are heavily damaged or reduced to fragments, with only skeletal remains of walls and pillars standing under a clear blue sky. Another angle of the same devastated area shows vast stretches of rubble and debris covering the ground. The remnants of buildings are scattered with broken concrete, tangled rebar, and fragments of walls, leaving almost nothing intact. The sky is bright and clear, highlighting the scale of destruction and emptiness left behind.

16 hours left, please share ⚠️ Many folks say “it’s the least I can do” when it’s exactly what we’re asked to do—giving directly to Palestinians to survive, or sharing to reach those who can give.

NOW more than ever. The needs are still here. So we escalate. One link, SIX families. 23/640

Not a philosopher, but, as a geoscientist this feels incredibly familiar. So this is another reminder that your scientific association/union is complicit, if they are silent or avoiding to use the word genocide.

Performative blame avoidance is very common in such organisations.

We have repeatedly not met these goals but the families still have needs and also may have to deal with transportation costs again

Folks, you helped SEVEN families flee the occupation’s invasion of north Gaza. This was lifesaving—and also devastating.

They’re displaced yet again among criminal uncertainty. Yes, EVEN NOW. Every ounce of dependable help matters.

Sakher’s account was shut down — the only place where he spoke to the world about his pain and his suffering.

That account was his only voice, his way to survive and keep going.

Today, Sakher lost his last connection to the world.💔

Due to internet cuts, she cannot open a new account because bluesky requires a higher bandwidth. So meanwhile please support Sama.

Two years of genocide, decades long siege, occupation, colonisation. In the comfort of your homes, you might feel powerless but you have power. You also have power to provide the bandaid Palestinians need at the moment to keep their hope alive and survive.

I am Reem, a girl from Gaza.💔
My life has turned into a nightmare.
We lost our home, our safety, and our dreams.
Every night I sleep hungry, listening to bombs and my little brothers crying.
My mother tries to smile, but her eyes are full of pain.😭

We are Reem and Sakher. Tomorrow marks exactly two years since this war began. Two years of loss, fear and endless pain. We have lost everything our homes, our memories, our safety, our dreams.
For five days now, no donations have reached us

Everyday there are more and more people dying from malnutrition caused by forced famine, a genocidal tactic of Israhell. Your donations can save Sakher from this, help him get food. Please donate and share. You cannot imagine the power of a regular weekly 10€/$/£

Samaa has been telling me that the donations have been going really slowly. So much has happened in the past days. She lost a relative, Talia had been in pain, Julia had rashes... watching her kids growing under occupation and genocide is indescribably difficult. Let's keep the donations going
