Stormzy faces backlash for McDonaldโ€™s advert after โ€˜deletingโ€™ pro-Palestine post โ€˜Vossi Bopโ€™ rapper has faced criticism from pro-Palestine supporters boycotting the fast food chainโ€™s alleged support of Israel

Stormzyโ€™s collaboration with McDonaldโ€™s feels so dystopian.

Selling your integrity for some nuggets is a new lowโ€”even for hip-hop heads. And the worst part? He deleted the tiny bit of advocacy heโ€™d done for Palestine. Keeping it real: it ainโ€™t cute.

Listening to Trumpโ€™s plans for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gazaโ€”literally forced displacementโ€”has been one of the most chilling moments.

Genocide survivors deserve safety, dignity, and respect for their right to their own land.

Hands off Palestine.

A thing about surviving:

We get to redecorate ruins.

โ€˜Goodโ€™ music feels familiar because our ears are tuned to it, while โ€˜badโ€™ music breaks the rules, creating tension and discomfort. Itโ€™s raw, rebellious, and pushes boundaries, making us listen in a new way.

Sometimes, thatโ€™s where the real magic happensโ€”when it challenges us to feel more.

Sometimes, I donโ€™t have the capacity for BS, so I just say, โ€œSTFUโ€ out loud and move on with my day.

This is one of those times.

Half my energy goes to defending my gender nonconformity to cishets, the other half to defending my rights as a Palestinianโ€”yet Iโ€™m still expected to carry on like everyone else.

That exhaustion isnโ€™t a choice, but it fuels my drive for change. The fight isnโ€™t optional; itโ€™s survival.

1984 isnโ€™t just a novelโ€”itโ€™s a warning. Orwellโ€™s vision of surveillance, propaganda, and controlled truth feels disturbingly relevant today. If youโ€™ve ever questioned the power of governments or media, this book will shake you. Read it before fiction becomes reality.

oh, and bring a highlighter!

And when those who defend it are asked to repeat themselves, they suddenly go silent.

If it isnโ€™t so bad, then do it. Yallah. weโ€™re all waiting.

Itโ€™s funny how these so-called โ€œaccidental gesturesโ€ only ever seem to happen to fascist right-wingers.

Anyone who did it by accident would immediately take it back and apologizeโ€”but weโ€™ve seen none of that.

The fact that he thought I had that kind of power.

Is this how cishets flirt???

Remember when Jotam Confino accused me of forcing a Gaza talk on Goโ€™ Aften Live?

Journalists confirmed it was a lie, he deleted the post, and then blocked me on all platforms after I called him out.

Zionists will do Zionist things for political goals. Ew.

This is state-sanctioned violence, plain and simple. Trans women are being dehumanized, violated, and used as tools to pacify cisgender men in prisonsโ€”let that sink in. โ€˜V-codingโ€™ isnโ€™t just a term; itโ€™s a deliberate system of cruelty.

If this doesnโ€™t infuriate you, youโ€™re not paying attention.

Boycott Israel. Sanction Israel. Divest from Israel. Refuse to perform in Israel. Arrest Israeli soldiers and war criminals. Genocide is not in the past. Genocide is not forgotten. Genocide is an active event. The land remains occupied, bulldozed, and collectively punished.

When a QTBIPOC speaks, their words are often ignored until a white person repeats them. Sit with thatโ€”and unlearn it.

Exiting Meta platforms might be socially or economically costly right now. But without awareness and collective action, change will only slow further, sinking the chances of leaving even lower. Use the momentum. Organize, mobilize, act.

I donโ€™t befriend anyone who oppresses my right to express gender nonconformity or love whomever I choose. With the same absolute intolerance, Iโ€™m adding the right to return and self-determination in Palestine to that list.
