its so batshit that the argument rn in western pundit discourse is “slogans we don’t like bc they make us uncomfortable, no we refuse to understand what anything means” while every single day we are shown the most horrific first person accounts of violence we have ever seenALT
Telling people who have to walk through armed checkpoints that their ancestral "Freedom from here to there" slogan makes you feel bad is a little silly, isn't it?ALT
the idea that we should cede any ground on ppl’s fear of an islamic concept (martyrs) or an arabic word (intifada) or a palestinian chant (from the river to the sea) is so absurdly racist it has no merit whatsoever. oh no a thing from another culture made you feel bad! who cares!ALT
They don't want you to say Allah Akbar, shahid (martyr), Nakba, From the River to the Sea, Free Palestine, apartheid, genocide, occupation, colonialism, ethnic cleansing, ceasefire, don't fucking kill kids, stop They don't want you to say anythingALT
If I live to be a hundred, I will never forget the people on here who watched Palestinians die in their tens of thousands, and tut tutted about how their slogans made people feel unsafe. I hope it haunts you til your dying day, what you have done, what you have not.ALT

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
