2020's WORLD PROBLEMS. INFORMATION, PETITIONS, THREADS, DONATIONS ETC.
All Lives Matter is a protest to distract from the Black Lives Matter movement.
All lives? You have time for them all, yeah? I'm so glad you say that! Where do you wanna start? Gay youth experiencing homelessness at disproportionately higher rates? The incessant murder of black trans women? The indigenous women going missing because they're being taken? No? Ohh maybe you want to start with the inhumane tactics that ICE is using while detaining children at the border and how they're GASSING them?? How this administration keeps trying to roll back healthcare for trans people? Or how women don't have access to a lot of reprod*ctive rights? How climate change is going to affect low income neighbourhoods which are predominantly people of colour? Maybe you wanted to go global with the Yemen crisis and how they might be wiped out because of COVID?
''On May 25, 2020, my life shattered as I learned of the tragic passing of my dear brother, George.
My family and I watched in absolute horror as the now infamous and horrifying video began to spread quickly throughout social media. What we saw on that tape left us shell shocked; a white Minneapolis police officer kneeling directly on my brother's neck, obstructing his ability to breathe. As some officers knelt on his neck, other officers participated and watched; no one took any action to save my brother's life. Those officers would continue to brutalize my brother until he died. This fund is established to cover funeral and burial expenses, mental and grief counseling, lodging and travel for all court proceedings, and to assist our family in the days to come as we continue to seek justice for George. A portion of these funds will also go to the Estate of George Floyd for the benefit and care of his children and their educational fund.''
''I was 20 years old. I studied architecture.
He had a whole life ahead of him and DAVID ALEJANDRO MORALES took it from him.
DAVID IS THE FEMINICIDE OF GENEBIT LIVIER GODINEZ.
WE WILL SCREAM FOR YOU, WE WILL NOT FORGET YOUR NAME.''
''I am speechless. The truth, they found it in a trunk in Mexicali.
The whole world has stopped, but the femicides do not stop. Hatred of women is over the limits. We are not all, we are missing Genebit. How scary to be a woman in Mexico. They Do not Care About Us.''
--Translation--
Tenía 20 años. Estudiaba arquitectura.
Tenía toda una vida por delante y se la arrebato DAVID ALEJANDRO MORALES.
DAVID ES EL FEMINICIDA DE GENEBIT LIVIER GODINEZ.
GRITÁREMOS POR TI, NO NOS OLVIDAREMOS DE TU NOMBRE.
Estoy sin palabras la verdad, la encontraron en una cajuela en Mexicali.
El mundo entero esta parado, pero los feminicidios no paran. El odio a la mujer sobre pasa los límites. No estamos todas, nos falta Genebit. Qué miedo ser mujer en México. No les importamos.
Yemen is the largest humanitarian crisis in the world, with more than 24 million people – some 80 per cent of the population – in need of humanitarian assistance, including more than 12 million children. Since the conflict escalated in March 2015, the country has become a living hell for the country’s children.
With COVID-19 now spreading rapidly, Yemen is facing an emergency within an emergency. Sanitation and clean water are in short supply. Only half of health facilities are functioning, and many that remain operational lack basic equipment like masks and gloves, let alone oxygen and other essential supplies to treat the coronavirus. Many health workers are receiving no salaries or incentives, and 10.2 million children don't have access to basic healthcare.
Children continue to be killed and maimed in the conflict, while the damage and closure of schools and hospitals has disrupted access to education and health services, leaving children even more vulnerable and robbing them of their futures.
Before COVID-19, around 2 million children were out of school. Now, because of the pandemic, schools have been closed around the country, leaving some 7.8 million children unable to access education. As the coronavirus spreads, tens of thousands more children could develop life-threatening severe acute malnutrition over the next six months, while the overall number of malnourished children under the age of five could increase to a total of 2.4 million.
Britain’s Equality Minister has announced a major government policy change on trans rights, banning transition before the age of 18. Her statement may also be the start of an attack on trans people being able to use the right bathrooms and changing rooms
Currently, the Gender Recognition Act requires trans people to go through a long medical process in order to change their birth certificates. For this reason, many do not, and instead rely on the Equality Act 2010 which allows any trans person who has transitioned to be recognised as their acquired gender. Transitioning does not have to include surgery.
The UK government are planning to change the Gender Recognition Act to make this even more complicated and make it even more complicated for trans people to access facilities such as bathrooms and changing rooms.
Not only this, they plan on changes to the act which refuse people under 18 the right to transition.
Equalities Minister Liz Truss is expected to publish a document which outlines the measures by the end of July, before MPs go on their summer break. The government is reportedly keen to keep the changes ‘in line with public opinion’ on transgender rights.
On June 10th, 2020, the current president of Poland, Andrzej Duda, signed something called "The Family Card". Its purpose is to "protect family values" but in reality it will just cause harm.
''Family, the smallest existing community, in which we grow up and mature, is a foundation of our identity. The Polish country has an obligation to do everything it can to support and protect the family, both in the economic and social dimension.
The country has to ensure that Polish families have been given decent living conditions, without having to worry about poverty or the threat of ideologies that might destroy it. Family is not only parents and the children, but also grandparents, whose wisdom, experiences and help we use.
We’re obliged to help families. This is why I guarantee maintaining pro-family programs, that were introduced during my presidency, and I promise to take care of their development.
Financial support for the families:
A guarantee of continuation of family benefits:
500+
Dobry Start 300+
Mama+
Introducing new support programs, ex. A holiday voucher for each child for the amount of 500PLN
Special care for families raising disabled children.
Defense of the marriages:
Marriage is a relationship between a woman and a man, according to the Polish Constitution.
Prohibiting children adoption by homosexual couples.
Creating good conditions to make it possible to raise children.
Defending children from the LGBT ideology:
Prohibiting ‘propagation of the LGBT ideology’ in the public spaces.
Ensuring that parents will be allowed to decide on their children’s direction of education.
Parents are the ones responsible for the sexual education of their children.
Parents will be able to decide on the form and content of the extra classes in schools and kindergartens.
Making it easier for parents, who want to teach their children at home.''
To make the matters worse, the Family Card was proposed by an extremally conservative organisation known as Ordo Luris. So now that they got it signed, would you like to see what's next on their to-do list?
They want to ban all forms of abortion and sex-ed, prohibit divorce and prohibit "gay agenda" and "LGBT ideology" amongst many others.
IF NOTHING CHANGES, WE MIGHT HAVE TO LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHERE WE WILL BE FORCED TO GIVE BIRTH TO OUR RAPIST'S CHILD, WON'T BE ABLE TO DIVORCE OUR ABUSIVE SPOUSE AND GAY PEOPLE WILL BE AT AN EVEN BIGGER RISK THAN NOW.
THEY WANT US TO LIVE IN A WORLD RIPPED STRAIGHT OUT OF "THE HANDMAID'S TALE".
WE ARE NOT AN IDEOLOGY. WE ARE REAL PEOPLE.
