One of the strongest advocates for #Palestine, Lexi Alexander, was recently suspended from #Bluesky without explanation. Truth is that her advocacy was becoming too influential. Even before bsky mods booted her she was promoting #UpScrolled, which is one of the few safe #socialmedia sites for Palestinians. Issam Hijazi is the founder of UpScrolled.
I joined UpScrolled because I value Lexi’s perspective and bsky mods won’t stop me from following her. If you have an UpScrolled account let me know and I’ll follow you too.

Thanks Lexi, appreciate the support.
It's been, and still is, a lot of hard work,
long hours, and sleepless nights,
driven by belief in what we're building.
Web is coming soon, stay tuned.

That is true allyship. As someone who
works in a Zionist dominated industry
myself, I can only imagine the work hours
and endless begging for favors @Issam
had to put in to get this platform up and
running. Everybody should already be on
here...

Not sure how I'II use this platform going
forward. I was going to wait until they
had a web version as I'm not a fan of
using phone apps but I had to get on
here and show solidarity with @lexialex.
