The whiplash from how quickly Aussie media will label any pro-Palestine protest as ‘antisemitic’ but when actual Neo-Nazis are protesting on some white supremacist shit the media is like ‘woah woah woah. let’s not go throwing any labels around’

We are in a period that's so anti-intellectual it's really drowning us and our creativity.
This is racist. There's no other word for it.
"Who cares" is an ignorantly racist thing to say about whitewashing a story about colonialism.
The casting director for Emerald Fennell’s ‘WUTHERING HEIGHTS’ says “there’s definitely going to be some English Lit fans that are not going to be happy”
“There was one Instagram comment that said the casting director should be shot. But just wait till you see it, and then you can decide whether you want to shoot me or not.
But you really don’t need to be accurate. It’s just a book. That is not based on real life. It’s all art.”

Israel targeted and killed her 24 hours after the doc was announced to premiere at Cannes Film Festival. Israel is so sinister and vile.
A Palestinian artist and photojournalist who is the protagonist of a documentary due to premiere in Cannes in May has been killed in an Israeli air strike.
Fatima Hassouna died with nine members of her family in a direct strike on their home in Gaza City on Wednesday.
Hassouna, who had gained international recognition for her photojournalism capturing the impact on the Gaza Strip’s civilian population of the Israeli military campaign, appears in French-Iranian director Sepideh Farsi’s 'Put Your Soul On Your Hand And Walk'.
Hassouna was killed 24 hours after the documentary was announced as having been selected for parallel Cannes section ACID, running from May 14 to 23 alongside the main festival

the Arab/West Asian stereotyping...Wes Anderson continues to ignore criticisms of the Orientalist, dehumanising depictions of non-western peoples in his work. USAmericans sure love making films about how strange and dangerous Brown ppl are while their armies kill us overseas.

they've since deleted it, but yesterday J*nkee posted a very ironic Severance TikTok about weaponising extreme double standards against POC in the workplace, as if they themselves didn't put me under review for being "too academic" after I started talking about Palestine.

I spoke at the rally outside @creative_gov_au today to protest the racist intervention of the Board and executives in cancelling the appointment of Khaled Sabsabi as our representative at the Venice Biennale. The CEO and the chairman need to resign for their disgraceful conduct.
