I find 9/11 extremely fascinating from a historical perspective and wish there was more coverage of it that wasnt either right-wing jingoistic propaganda or just straight up conspiracy shit.
9/11 is a tragedy AND a direct result of American terrorism all over the Middle East, which includes the arming and funding of Israel. Both things are true.
Michael Massaroli Jr. was the last to read names at the 9/11 ceremony: "You do my dad's legacy and the legacy of all these victims no honor by using this tragedy to spread hate." Mayor Mamdani was the only senior elected official to stay after it ended. He spoke with Massaroli.
i think that we can mourn 3000 people dying and thousands more continuing to die and also mourn those dying from the resulting wars caused by america on 9/11. all of these can be true. none of these people deserved to die.
The last speaker at the 9/11 remembrance ceremony lost his father Michael Massaroli to the attacks.
"You do my dad's legacy and the legacy of all these victims no honor by using this tragedy to spread hate," he said. "I've had to grow up and spend the past 25 years seeing people use it to hate on our Muslim brothers and sisters, to hate on people who don't look like them."
as funny as the kirk memes are, the fact that we stopped hearing about his killer once we found out he was white speaks volumes. if he were black, we’d still be seeing his face everywhere. no black person would’ve been allowed to forget him. that’s painful to think about.
everyone thank COLDPLAY

The Gaza documentary “NAZA” earned a massive 24.5-minute #VeniceFilmFestival ovation as the crowd cheered and waved Palestinian flags.
This marks the longest-ever standing ovation at Venice, beating the 22-minute ovation for “The Voice of Hind Rajab” last year, and perhaps the longest at any film festival, period.
The new documentary was shot at night on the rooftops of Tel Aviv and shows “in detail the systems behind Israel’s calculated mass killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza,” per an official synopsis. Abraham and Szor interviewed 24 Israeli military intelligence officers and soldiers — all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity — who were involved in the surveillance or remote killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. Their appearance and voices were digitally altered to disguise their identities.

@shortnsweetner normalerweise finden da sehr selten konzerte von grösseren künstlern statt es gibt auch keine festen plätze etc wie in arenen das kommt dann sehr auf das layout an dementsprechend habe ich bissle sorgen weil es probably sehr schnell chaotisch werden kann
Mexican artist Teotecpatl Santin Martinez reveals he, Shawn Mendes and team turned down offer to make their song the 2026 FIFA anthem over FIFA’s push to get Donald Trump the Nobel Peace Prize and its handling of the situation in GAZA.
Again I am BEGGING you all to show Sudan some attention too. They're suffering not just a genocide but what is being classified as the worst humanitarian crisis worldwide. Women have killed themselves to prevent being sexually abused. Displacement, famine, and massacres. Speak.
