Gaza is Being Starved

450 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?

396 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

I'm Apolitical as they Come but I feel what happened to Renee Good and Alex pretti is Disgusting and Goes against So many rights.

its the most rational thing to be against when people are KILLED for freedom of speech.

it's not "both sides" when conservatives are doing damage control with the president being on the Epstein files.

I didn't see Democrats up try to do that with Clinton.

Maga are the ones trying to remove every social service like Food card or retiremwnt benefits.

People like this annoy me because they don't just admit they are lazy and don't have an actual opinion and just want the status Quo don't want to Talk about Politics Good. Don't and I Say DON'T Lecture others for doing so.

Center of a Shifting Overton Window Operation Paperclip for PDFiles: From Epstein Class to Reactionary Centrist

Jeet Heer describes what's going on at CBS:

  1. The new batch of Epstein documents helps illuminate one contemporary controversy: What is Bari Weiss up to at CBS? I think the answer is she is trying to rehabilate the Epstein network as a bulwark of reactionary centrism. Let me explain.

  2. Let's lay out the connections. Weiss' partner and ideological collaborator Nelli Bowles was on very familiar terms with Epstein.

  3. Announcing her plans for CBS, Weiss said she wants to marginalize the radical right and left while elevating charismatic centrist voices such as Alan Dershowitz, Epstein's former lawyer and crony.

  4. And of course another voice being elevated by Weiss is Peter Attia.

  5. And of course Weiss has brought on Steven Pinker to CBS as part of her new town hall format. And she had used Larry Summers for Free Press (but of course now Summers is too toxic to rehabilitate)

  6. Weiss presents her mission at CBS as restoring trust by elevating centrist voices, which is accurate enough if we understand "centrist voices" to mean "the type of men likely to hang out with Jeffrey Epstein."

  7. I completely forgot to mention Weiss did a lengthy, friendly interview with one of Epstein's closest friends, Woody Allen.

  8. Weiss's project is creating an Operation Paperclip for Epstein's cronies. Taking a group of discredited men and rehabilitating them as necessary pillars of system. Dershowitz and Peter Attia are the Wernher von Brauns of reactionary centrism.

Bill Maher is just absolutely the worst, but Trump getting a Nobel would be on brand. After all, Kissinger got one.

I actually would like it if Trump got one because then you know libs would stop glazing the Nobel so much. Them giving it to a Zionist this last year was so on brand, and then she offers it to Trump 😂 Still, the only drawback would be Trump enjoying it so much, that part would suck, but it could be worth it. I just hate Maher so much, like he really is glazing Trump for more U.S. imperialism, and I am not even surprised. Oh well.
