#islamophobia

Came home yesterday to find my partner fuming that someone had been whipping up a campaign against an old pub being converted into a mosque by putting a glossy leaflet through door. He usually leaves the fuming to me…but this time it had inspired him to put in writing his support of the planned mosque to the planning department. We are not even in the same postcode as this pub. Who is funding this subtle but glossy Islamophobia? #Norwich #Planning #islamophobiahttps://www.edp24.co.uk/news/26497737.mystery-surrounds-anti-mosque-leaflets-posted-norwich/?ref=cprfa

This was also at the Israel pavillion. The tourist map is "Greater Israel", which includes all of Gaza and West Bank, erasing all Palestine. I didn't get a personal look myself, but I imagine it included southern Lebanon as well, in their usual definition of "Greater Israel". If anybody has a more closeup photo, I would like to see it. Incidentally, if you haven't all seen the movie "Israelism", I strongly suggest you do. It shows you how this version of "Greater Israel" is taught in Jewish schools here in North America as "geography", and students are taught how to "counter" anti-Zionism without ever learning that occupation and apartheid exists. https://youtu.be/Iq6J7Q6L0yw?si=rSsb3CvJmf9OeKen #freepalestine #FreeLebanon #yeg #abpoli #ableg #islamophobia #genocide #racism

And of course this came up on my other social newsfeed right after posting this... Your solidarity with Palestine is accused of anti-semitism? Like your feminism is accused of misandry/man-hating? Like your anti-racism is accused of reverse racism? Like your workers rights’ unionism is accused of treachery? Like your protests are accused of vandalism? The oppressor will always find ways to appropriate, co-opt and manipulate the language of the oppressed to claim victimhood and to justify their violence as self-defense. #freepalestine #islamophobia #racism #hate #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

When they scream at you and call you a "Motherfucking Jew Hater" for no reason but seeing you identify with Palestinian culture through an article of Arab clothing, just know that what they are actually calling you is an "Arab Lover" for showing solidarity with a persecuted people. They called you a "fucking f@gg0t lover" when you wore a rainbow for Pride. They called you a "n!ggrr lover" when you stood up for antiracism. Now they call you a "motherfucking Arab lover" for wearing a keffiyeh, and they want you to feel shame and guilt for wearing that label? Don't let them twist words on you. You have not shown hate to anyone, so wear your love with pride! #islamophobia #racism #hate #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
