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💔😭

I'm sakher
God willing, this will be the end of the war.
Today, a preliminary ceasefire agreement was announced between the parties, and our hearts are full of hope that this will be the beginning of peace — after all the destruction, pain, and loss.

“You’re always playing the race card”

Anyone who says this has no idea how power dynamics work.

Race is not a card I can play. It is a hand I’m dealt.

Black people have never had the power to keep white people from voting, reading, or writing. If anyone’s had a race card, it’s white people.

Really justice would be we the ppl pulling up on rich ppls lawns and setting their homes on fire.

If the most impoverished ppl can't own a home, the rich shouldn't be allowed to keep any of theirs.

The rich need to be heavily taxed or become compost

White people are producing mass shooters at an incredible clip, and this is what they’re trying to do about it.

Jess Calarco @jessicacalarco.com · 1d

A White Christian nationalist pastor argued recently on a right-wing podcast that the Bible--specifically Deuteronomy 21, about how a father must bring his rebellious son to the town square to be stoned--justifies state violence against Black boys and young men.

-Must have drivers license
-Fast paced work environment
-Must be able to lift x lbs

These things are ways employers show discrimination in a not so obvious way
Why?
Bc businesses should be willing to accommodate... And that also means accommodations during the interview process.

I'm not surprised he's worried about antifa. Probably hates women.... (Men will often date younger women bc they have less life experience to know they are being manipulated and groomed)

If he can't get a date with someone his age, yellow flag... Minimum.

It’s always what happens. Most of Bush policies targeted our own population, Regan’s "war on drugs" which did nothing to stop drugs, but did a lot to lock up Black and Brown ppl. Most of the time they use the tactics of fear to make ppl comply to these new policies.

Black People Knew This Would Happen

Generational experience has taught us what happens when the state builds a weapon for someone else: Sooner or later, it finds a way back to us.

Being better than Poliviere isn't where Canadians should draw out lines

We want and need better ppl in politics. And that's only going to happen when we take charge and start talking politics with friends and family

Get into fights about this shit. Pull us back to the left.

Canada doesn't have to try to reinvent the wheel.. we just need to realize that Canada strong doesn't mean Canada only. We can and should be learning from other countries.

Coverage. The feds should add it to the universal in our healthcare.
Dental, glasses... These things shouldn't be tied to employment... Seeing as we aren't investing in long term employment solutions

Building houses is fine n all, but what happens in 5 to 10 years when the building stops? Can those

The second we got a second, even more conservative party running... We all should have started reaching over the table and slapping our relatives upside the head.

You want an easier life? For things to be less expensive? Then we need socialism. And way more of it.

People think that when you become disabled, support magically appears

That once it’s “official” you will have your basic needs met

The truth is people fight for years to get the bare minimum in benefits

Caregivers are nearly impossible to find

If you’re not rich or very lucky… you’re on your own

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry
