There's a part of me that hates arguing that if we allow the genocide in Gaza to continue, humanity as a whole is at stake. Because, I just wish the suffering, and deaths, of the people of Palestine was enough by itself to convince everyone that this horrific mass slaughter needs to stop. One day, … Continue reading Humanity Is At A Crossroads

A Ceasefire Has Been Declared. So Why Still Protest?
A question that is being asked of the pro-Palestine movement over the last few days is, now that a ceasefire has been declared, why do we still protest for Palestine? Isn't our job done?

The Somud Flotilla Has Been Intecepted, What Has It Achieved, And What Now?
As of the time of writing, all boats from the Somud Flotilla have been intercepted by Israel, their crews kidnapped and now in Israeli custody. I, like many people, fear for their safety.

Gaza, Is It Time For A Different Type Of Hope?
It's coming up to October. Which means, we have spent the last two years witnessing one of the worst genocides of the 21st century. Live-streamed. There are horrors burned into my mind that I don't think I'll ever forget. The last ever phone call of Hind Rajab. Learning of human beings being deliberately burned to … Continue reading Gaza, Is It Time For A Different Type Of Hope?
Trying To Make Sense Of Absolute Insanity
This blogpost is partly inspired by this video, featuring Taigh Hickey and Greta Thunberg: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bQQy0D6UCgg Before this video was released, if you told me there was going to be a video with Taigh and Greta, I'd have been like, "Yes, this is the best thing that ever happened ever!

We Should STILL All Be Screaming.
I was looking back on when I wrote some of my blogposts, and I realized it's been close to a year since I wrote this: https://autismneurodiversity.com/2024/08/25/why-arent-we-all-screaming/ And I entertained the idea of waiting until the 25th of this month to write this, but I thought, writer's block being what it is, better not risk it, … Continue reading We Should STILL All Be Screaming.
