LGBTQ+ activists are organizing Pro-Palestine Pride, and demanding mainstream events cut ties with sponsors complicit in Israel’s assault on Gaza
According to Bain in Toronto, a reliance on funding from corporations and the Canadian government has made pride festivals and other major LGBTQ+ organizations, like Egale and Rainbow Canada, beholden to those funders.
“They are forced into silence,” Bain said, referring to mainstream Pride organizers. “They have chosen to be silent as well, because they have chosen to accept the funding. And they have chosen to align themselves with state policies that actually support Israel, and then also support the pinkwashing that Israel does.”
Some genocide, where the supposed aggressor takes care to try their best to move the target population out of harms way despite the fact that their actual militarised enemies deeply embed within the population, and the population grows enormously over the course of the decades of the supposed genocide.
If it is a genocide, someone needs to tell Israel they are doing it wrong.
Reminder that for the recent world central kitchen incident it was three separate precision drone strikes on three different cars spaced hundreds of meters apart. The cars were clearly marked and the route was coordinated in advance with the idf

Yes, because never in the course of any war throughout history have innocent bystanders been hit by accident.
Israel has enough firepower that if they were committing a genocide Gaza would have been a literal pile of rubble decades ago.
lol “accident” sure bud.
