“Secretary Clinton’s remarks are not only inaccurate – they are also a shameful example of the lengths to which people complicit in genocide will go to to deny its existence.”

I’m proud to be joining @Mastodon’s Board of Directors to guide and support this important platform.

I believe that #Mastodon and the #Fediverse represent some of the most important advancements in social networking design and technology. They have the potential to reverse the harms wrought by the monolithic social media platforms of yesterday.

But even more than that, Mastodon and the Fediverse can be so much more than what we are against. We have so much potential. I believe in all of our power to build and change the world. We start by building and convening in healthier online communities because our strength together is far more than the sum of our differences. I believe in building technologies that help bring out the best in humanity; I believe in the amazing things we can do and be when we work together.

I love Mastodon. I love what we are and what we will be. Now let’s build a better world together 💞

First and foremost, congratulations @haubles. If your job is to make the @Mastodon community healthier, it's going to be a hard one. Wish you all the best, and a way to get rid of #genocideDenial without being smeared as #antisemitic.

However, if we can support your mission with graphics, pls let me know.

We recorded this short clip with @AhmedOuda during our verification call for Gaza Verified with him.

https://vimeo.com/1119119334

I didn’t want to publish it when we lost touch with him for a number of days and were fearing the worst but he and his family are now in the South and trying to make a new start of it.

They still need your help.

We were able to get a little money to them on the last day of last week’s emergency campaign but they still need more help to get settled in and to cover the basic necessities of life.

Please watch, share, and help if you can.

Thank you!

There are a couple of anonymous cowards on Mastodon telling people that all Palestinians you see here are fake and that the Internet there doesn’t work at all and spamming the #fediblock hashtag to get my Mastodon instance defederated so they can silence me and the work we are doing with @joynewacc (a real person from Palestine, can you believe that?) on Gaza Verified.

I hope they get what they deserve for their genocide denial (which makes them complicit in genocide as genocide denial is the last and final stage of genocide) and the harm they are trying to inflict on people already suffering from genocide and famine.

Truly, they are the worst of humanity.

Meanwhile, here we are, holding video calls with Palestinian families in Gaza to ensure that one of the last lifelines they have on the Internet remains open to them.

Public service announcement:

I am blocking the babka.social instance as the person who runs it (Serge) is a Zionist and a genocide/denier, who conflates being Jewish with being Zionist (“Zionism is a belief that more than 80% of Jews have. Talking about Zionists is talking about Jews.” – https://babka.social/@serge/115160596730973593) and who states that Israelis are not colonisers and that we cannot criticise Israel for killing children (one an hour on average for 23 months; https://babka.social/@serge/114670463036891746).

I will not federate with genocide deniers or people who hold the antisemitic view that all Jews support genocide and I suggest you do not do so either.

Genocide denial is the last and final stage of genocide and constitutes complicity in genocide.

Genocide denial is considered the final stage of the genocidal process. If you’re denying Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people, you are literally complicit in genocide and part of the genocidal process. And history is taking notes.

Right, it’s time we started an initiative to find and call out (with receipts) accounts on the fediverse engaged in genocide denial and genocide apologism in support of Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

There are accounts (and even whole instances, it would seem) that are engaged in this and, further, attempts to silence the voices, not to mention threaten the livelihoods of, those of us speaking out against Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people and attempting to help Palestinians in Gaza who are being starved, shot, bombed, and burned to death by Israel as we speak.

Is there already a hashtag we can use? If not, any suggestions? Is #GenocideDenial? too generic? How about #FediGenocideDenial?

Isn’t genocide denial a crime in Germany? Does that only apply to one genocide? (The Holocaust?) Or does it also apply to, say, the Armenian genocide too? And, if so, does that it mean that the only genocide it doesn’t apply to is Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people?
