This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss.
The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes.
Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment.
To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity.
''That child you aborted could have cured Cancer.''
So could the child in Palestine, Ukraine, Lebanon, Congo and Sudan.
You know, the children who are murdered by governments you support.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announces Canada will provide $100 million in aid for Palestine — $80 million of that going towards humanitarian aid and $20 million for security capacity.

The literal vice president of the United States saying “give us another chance” after 2 years of pure dystopia is fucking insane and you’re an idiot if you vote for them
In theory, I support the death penalty for rapists and pedophiles. In practice, I don't trust the government with that sort of power especially when you know Black people and minorities will be targeted.
If you’re confused why Kanye can say HEIL HITLER in any venue in the US but Macklemore can’t say FREE PALESTINE it’s because US is ruled by Nazis, hope this helps.
morgan wallen had a crash out where he used racial slurs against black people and venues still allow him to perform. kanye west praised nazis, said slavery is a choice and venues allow him to tour. chris brown is always beating women and he's being allowed to perfom...
Kanye West did a song titled Heil Hitler and is currently doing a concert tour, which has included multiple dates at Raymond James stadium in Tampa that has banned Macklemore for saying end the genocide & free Palestine
fucking absurd
Remember like six months ago when millions of documents were released that detail how our government is full of sadistic pedophiles and then nothing happened? Like literally nothing at all?
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.
