already seeing articles that say “during the genocide” while the genocide is ongoing… just like they say “during the pandemic” while the pandemic is ongoing. this is manufacturing consent for (further) abandonment via the past tense.

“concealing our faces with masks or ‘fabrics’ isnt allowed anymore”
we’re in the 2nd worst COVID surge of this entire pandemic. because the ableist left normalized eugenics instead of masking, institutions are easily able to weaponize collective abandonment for carceral control.
i lowkey think my college is trying to slowly ban keffiyehs bc we got an email today talking abt how concealing our faces with masks or “fabrics” isnt allowed anymore and the only time we conceal our identity is during our palestinian protests with keffiyehs and face masks…

“Aaron was not well at the end. We pleaded with him to seek help from his superiors in the Air Force. My son fell victim to propaganda during a long mental health battle. We are Bible believing Christians, and we support Israel 100%. We ask for your prayers at this time.”
Danielle Bushnell, mother of Aaron Bushnell, who recently passed away after being influenced by Hamas propaganda, has reached out to her local church organization.
She requested prayers and mentioned that her son struggled with mental illness towards the end of his life.

everyone who claims that being told to mask is “policing” can go to HELL because police are literally shooting at people who mask. *this* is policing. not bare minimum community care.
An off-duty Houston cop saw a man with a face mask walking around and fired a shot at him. Police cannot explain why the shot was fired except the cop found the face covering suspicious. Man fled, unknown if injured.

if you can honor Aaron Bushnell for self-immolating to protest genocide, the least you can fucking do is emulate Aaron’s community care practice of wearing an N95 in shared public spaces. COVID is a tool for genocide worldwide. COVID is airborne and transmissible outdoors too.
ALT screenshot of a post from servethepeopleakron’s instagram page with the caption “Yesterday Aaron Bushnell self-immolated in front of the Israeli Embassy in Washington DC in protest of the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.” the photo features an outdoor mutual aid serve of folding tables with food and beverages and people serving them. Aaron is the only person’s whose face isn’t blurred, and they’re wearing a gray jacket, khakis, gloves, and a white N95 respirator with yellow headstraps.

I need to add that it’s likely that wearing a mask wasn’t “it.” it’s more likely than not that they were Black or otherwise not white. policing is antiBlack first and foremost every time. Black people are subjected to more violence for masking (and for existing) than anyone else.
