How many Americans know that there is no electricity or heating in many parts of earthquake and war devastated Syria bc of US sanctions & the US “strategically” controlling Syrian oil fields? Thoughts and prayers are important, action against US impunity in the region is better

“As much as 82% of the population [of Lebanon] now lives in poverty, according to the U.N. Unemployment is estimated at 40%.”

This article on Hamra Street is devastating and heartbreaking

Once Lebanon's center of glamour, Hamra Street goes dark https://t.co/Pq38RNhrGT

Elect Joe Biden so you can read books at night again rather than endlessly doomscrolling twitter.

My father died of Covid alone in a hospital. I had to say goodbye to him over a phone. Trump got a joyride to sooth his desperate need for attention, while endangering the lives of the Secret Service people in the car with him. To hell with him and all who enable him.

Thanks, I’m fine. But everyone better vote.

How do the "I Don't See Color" people see "Black on Black" crime?

@bay_hive @ahm765438 @piercingluv @BayleighDaily @MTV @BunimMurray @fessyfitness With you 100%, love.

[Natalie @NatalieElEid]

@Wintrland @BayleighDaily Assuming that because he’s from Pakistan he would want a virgin and should go to Pakistan then because that’s what “they do” is ignorant, untrue and hateful. I don’t like or dislike this girl, but I’ll always stand against racial intolerance. I suggest you do the same. Take care.

[Natalie @NatalieElEid]

@bay_hive @ahm765438 @piercingluv @BayleighDaily @MTV @BunimMurray @fessyfitness Also disgusting as all hell. None of this okay, and no racial intolerance voids another.

[Natalie @NatalieElEid]

@Wintrland @BayleighDaily 4. I’m gonna assume you knew all of this so the only one reaching for something is you.

[Natalie @NatalieElEid]

@Wintrland @BayleighDaily 1. Muslim men vying for virgins is a violent stereotype 2. Saying that is what “they” do insinuates a divide between “us” and “them”, invoking hate and intolerance 3. Telling an American to “go back to Pakistan” assumes that he doesn’t belong here because of his race or religion
