'I think it's appalling that people are not opposed to children dying but they are opposed to me speaking. I think it's appalling and I am not proud to be around those people.'

🚨 Last week, Pierre Poilievre threatened to override the fundamental rights & freedoms of Canadians.

Today, we saw Pierre's Conservative MP follow in his leader's footsteps & attack the Morgantaler decision - the Supreme Court ruling that decriminalized abortion in Canada.

We did everything the law allows.

Peaceful protests, letters to elected officials, raising awareness, International court, petitions etc., and yet the genocide in Gaza continues and now the only safe zone is under attack. The system was always broken but now it’s beyond repair.

If the International Criminal Court charges Netanyahu for his starvation strategy in Gaza, his world will become much smaller. The court's 124 member states all are obliged to arrest him if he enters their territory and send him for trial in The Hague. foreignpolicy.com/2024/05/07/icc…

Heaven forbid a writer speak about the politics that are killing Palestinians now at an event supposedly celebrating political writing.

This is absolutely disgusting and we as writers need to divest from cultural events that use their proximity to us and our art to feel better.

South-African Canadian author Kagiso Lesego Molope was just asked to leave the Politics and the Pen event for speaking on stage about the death toll in Gaza. She was interrupted by yelling, then after, was escorted out.

This event hands out the award for best political writing.

The disgusting display of wealth at the Met Gala and the massacre of Palestinian children is inextricably linked. American wealth is predicated on destabilising the world and stealing its resources. Those gowns and suits are drenched in the blood of innocent children.

Hamas was founded in 1987. So when the president says “ancient desires” to eliminate the Jews, he’s making a point about Arabs/Muslims as inherently and viscerally genocidal.

Biden says this while the Israelis, sponsored by him, have been non-stop slaughtering kids for months.

Your “free press” is a ghoulish joke that always, always backs the racist mass murder orchestrated by the State, be it in the form of drone strikes or imperial invasion. And then years later run some shitty “we were wrong” article. It’s a farce.

We keep telling you that there is no such thing as a “red line”, that the US is fully committed to this genocide and any sign saying otherwise is superficial theatre. We keep telling you that the media elite in the US are mouthpieces for the state. They always have been.

telling oppressed people that talking about their oppression is “not the right time” is… a choice. also the conversation HAS BEEN ongoing. for 30 years. you’ve only just started listening. unfortunately you only did so not to understand and support, but just to oppose.
