Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Sometimes I see ads in my city from the water department. It just says “drink water, it’s good for you”. It’s not trying to manipulate me or profit off me (other than the pennies they make selling tap water which I don’t even pay for because I live in an apartment complex.

It’s so pleasant seeing “ads” that way. I’d LOOOOOVE to be able to exist and not see any advertising for products.

I would love if billboards and ads were just things like "fun fact of the day" or a bad joke or just little bits of generic health advice like that. Use these public messaging spaces for messages beneficial to the public, or at least fun for them.
