@ellensandell I was planning on showing support for these students on Wednesday, but I was knocked off my bike on Tuesday afternoon. I wondered if the "accident" was a setup. A jogger cut me off when I was passing him from behind, causing me to crash. Now I have a broken arm.
@lucienlolz @MattBro145@ellensandell Because of entrenched European diaspora racism. Competing interests in Europe have sucked the wealth out of African people and their lands overtly and covertly for centuries now. I care. Others care. The reporting is less, on account ofl predatory interests and eurocentrism.
@timgg1971@ellensandell In this conflict, only one side has killed tens of thousands of children. Only one side has stolen land from the other and brutalized its people for decades. Hint: it's not the Palestinians who are the murderous, thieving aggressors.
@Mike_Rann And this is why the UK and USA want us to receive their waste. They have soiled their own nests, and shredded their own social license to operate.
@manjusrii Militarism and US/UK foreign policy. The West nuclear estate is in decline their vision is for Australia to become a full nuclear fuel cycle service and staffing depot to prop them up.
@MattBro145@ellensandell Peace is a global issue. Human rights are universal and they are being trampled, nay, obliterated in Gaza and wider Palestine. Many Australians care and make representations on the street and to politicians about this subject. Her representation is appropriate.
@ellensandell Wow, I'm appealed by the rage reprisal comments in this thread. Can't people be objective about this? It's a scarf, people. Perhaps the Zionist-aligned politicians should follow the prompt and wear something symbolic that expresses their allegiance?
@timgg1971@ellensandell It's not cultural appropriation, it's a mark of solidarity. There are people selling these, fundraising, every Sunday in Melb at the rallies for Palestine, which are attended by thousands of people & ethnically diverse. Wearing one is a sincere, genuine, subtle gesture of support
