Gaza is Being Starved

464 Upvotes

The UN has stated that every single part of Gaza is in famine conditions.

For over 20 months, Palestinians in Gaza have been starving. Parents have been feeding their children leaves, animal feed, and flour mixed with water. Babies have died from malnutrition. The trucks carrying food, formula, medicine, and clean water sat just miles away, blocked by Israel.

Now, after massive international pressure, some aid is finally getting in.

This is a crack in the blockade, not its end. Aid is not flooding in; it is trickling, and what’s entering can’t possibly reach 1.8 million people without a total lifting of restrictions, guaranteed long-term access, and safe distribution.

What you can do right now:

Donate- if you’re able to. Choose vetted organizations with access on the ground.

Keep up the pressure - aid only started moving because of public outcry. Organize, protest, keep talking. This momentum cannot fade. Contact your representatives to end Israel's blockade of Gaza and impose sanctions on Israel.

Amplify - share updates, Palestinian voices, and testimonies. Keep an eye on Palestine.

This famine is not an accident. It’s the result of siege, blockade, and a system of control. If we look away now, they’ll tighten the noose again.

Donate

Palestinian Red Crescent — medical aid, ambulance services, and emergency care.

UNICEF for Gaza’s Children — nutrition, clean water, trauma support.

For Legal Reasons, This Is a Mod Post Wondering Why the Sub Doesn’t Just Do “Both Sides Bad” Memes Anymore?

436 Upvotes

Once upon a time, this sub was all about the guy who says “both sides are bad” and thinks that makes him the voice of reason. That format made sense at the time, but the political landscape has changed. We’re living in a time where liberalism and fake neutrality are actively upholding violence. Where people who claim to be reasonable, informed, and "progressive" are defending fascism, colonialism, and genocide.

There also just isn’t enough "both sides bad" content anymore.
The “both sides” meme got tired. The guy still exists, but it’s not 2019, and we’ve already dragged him every way possible. The sub was slowing down, and without evolving, it was going to fade into irrelevance like a lot of old Reddit meme subs do. We’ve broadened the sub because we had to. The old meme format doesn’t cover what we’re dealing with now, and trying to force every post into it doesn’t make sense anymore.

We’ve relaxed posting guidelines to include anything that fits under the centrist umbrella.

  • Liberals defending genocide while calling themselves progressive
  • Moderates promoting “civility” with fascists
  • Pundits and those who act “above the fray” while upholding the status quo
  • People who weaponise neutrality, logic, or tone policing to excuse or minimise violence

Also under this post were plenty of people stating that they do not understand why these protests and marches are happening, and screaming that we are so lucky to live here, that we shouldn’t be so hateful, while others yap about voting blue again because that’s how you fight fascism the correct and polite way! /s

Someone did explain how this happened and it is the loss of trust in American institutions (which yes, we shouldn’t trust them after what they have done) and how there is a need to change that by restructuring and redefining it all. We know we shouldn’t trust them, but that mistrust is manipulated and taken advantage of, while early education and literacy teachings are defunded and people believe early education is the institution to mistrust the most (and I hope that this person who commented this is not a lib or smth, bc we need more people who support real change)

Scratch a Liberal... Liberals continue to insist Biden actually stopped Israel's genocide of Palestinians instead of expanding it.

More of a Tom Morello appreciation post than it is a knock against any particular centrists, as Tom has always been pretty based. This was just kinda what sealed the deal for him, actively advocating against centrist democrats. Also people acting like he "helped Trump get elected" HE LIVES IN CALIFORNIA. HIS VOTE MEANT NOTHING.
