The videos coming out of Rafah are like nothing I’ve ever seen before 💔 I don’t know how to describe the point mankind has just reached. We are watching the erasure of an entire population on our screens. This has to stop. I can’t believe this. Tears are flowing down my face.

They’re bombing Rafah again hours after apologising for bombing Rafah. There is no bottom to their depravity. They will tell the Western media whatever they want and it’ll be platformed unquestioningly while they do the exact opposite under cover of media spin.

From Sandy Hook and Uvalde --- to Gaza/Rafah, America is led by soulless, brutal men who tell us the price of "freedom" and "security" is to accept the slaughter of babies and children. We are being led down the path of moral rot and spiritual abyss.

A little child watched as his father was BURNED ALIVE inside their tent in Rafah after israel’s strike. He says “My dad is gone, I wanna go get my dad!” He stayed there waiting for his father to come out but he never came out.

The IDF’s attack on a tent camp of innocents in Rafah is an indefensible atrocity. This was done in open defiance of @POTUS’s red line and the ICJ’s call for a ceasefire. It is long past time for the President to live up to his word and suspend military aid.

For this year’s #TransDayOfVisibility, Teen Vogue and @them asked some friends to share a message of love and solidarity with our young trans followers, and send a rallying cry to the culture at large that we will not stand for the right wing’s political attacks. Hate ends here. Read more here to see how you can help defend trans rights: tnvge.co/eZl7cB1

You know, Hamilton fans are rightfully mad at "and Peggy!" disappearing halfway through without so much as a thank you. But what about Angelica's wealthy husband who always pays? All we know is that he is not a lot of fun & he doesn't even get a name 😂😂😂💀💀💀
