These immigration raids and terror tactics are terrible on their own, but it’s especially absurd when Native Americans get caught up in it, and it just fully exposes how disingenuous and transparently racist the whole effort is. So I’m sorry that your peoples have to suffer even more because of this racist mindset.

From a January article:

”If you can’t say, ‘we’ve been here for time immemorial,’ then you’re an immigrant. You’re not from here, so who are you to classify our Indigenous people? These lands have been a melting pot for many ethnicities,” Hatathlie [a Native Arizona state Senator] said.

I heard another more recent example of a car full of Native Americans being pulled over, aggressively questioned, and asked for their papers, but I can’t seem to find it. It’s utterly shameful how we treat people.

It must be pretty intimidating for these fools to have to contend with a sane, principled, Jewish, Mexican woman. They don’t like any of those attributes.

Thanks!

Oh I know, I’ve been here for years despite the age of my account. I just migrated from lemm.ee

I tend not to like to name these types of extensions because more exposure puts them at risk, and they’re super easy to find anyway.

Or, and hear me out: just install a browser plugin and forget ads exist.

I hesitate to name extensions names, but I’ve literally never seen an ad on YouTube.

These companies don’t respect us, so I don’t feel the need to respect them by allowing them to force their meaningless bullshit down my throat.

I don’t use it that much, but you better believe if I go to YouTube to watch a video, that video is the only thing I’m watching.

As an American Jew who has spent significant time in Israel and the occupied territories in Palestine, this piece is awesome and accurately reflects my experiences there.

Anyone who thinks Israel operates in good faith needs to read this, to quickly have that misconception torn to shreds. Many American Jews have gone through this kind of transformation, and it makes perfect sense when you see what actually happens to the normal human beings living there—that happen to be Palestinian—on a daily basis.

And his descriptions of interacting and living with Palestinians (and how Israelis only ever refer to all Palestinians as Arabs), match my experiences to the tee.
