Binface celebration is a direct attempt to cover for the instinctual Platnerianism found in much of British politics

EVERY US president from McKinley on has viewed Puerto Rico as just real estate. It's literally one of they key phrase in The Insular Cases "Owned by not a part of"

Give me your Eye, and i will watch over you from the underworld

One more thing before heading to bed: Search up the PROMESA law enacted on us by Obama in 2016 and you will see why i fucking hate Obama and Lin Manuel Miranda as well as consider them as horrible people

See this is why I ask questions cause all I see is dems/liberals giddy over how it could give us an edge in House/Senate/Presdential elections and not how they actually plan to improve the lives of a population we regularly rape and pillage.

For anyone here saying that the majority of Puerto Ricans in the island "vote overwhelmingly for Statehood" every election year, i hope y'all know that those "referendums" are non binding and are heavily boycotted because of it since it is nothing but pro PNP propaganda.

America and Israel gave Ali Al Khamenei the martydom he had always wanted, plus a hero's funeral to match.

Like this is something everyone should have taken in from seeing how Israeli Zionism has morphed despite its very evident and now very-discussed originating settler-colonial and racist/imperialist circumstances and violent, indefensible (genocidal) actions that were taken to establish it [Israel]

One of the things people maybe don’t consider is that every colonial project takes place across generations — thus the motivations, rhetorics, justifications, propaganda and specific geopolitical dynamics and contexts do [at least superficially] change! But that’s why you HAVE to be critical!

I've said it before, Learn about our history, before speaking about our future. Many of these books are free on the internet archive. For all the others go to your local library.

Hey, let's not do this Pro-Colonial bullshit with Puerto Rico. @bencollins.bsky.social please read the DSA's position. It's over a century of history of militarized violence, ethnic cleansing via forced Sterilization, and electoral fraud. Many of these colonial actions are on going

It was, US and just have negative media literacy, or historical awareness. The older I get I realize Lolita Lebron, Filberto Ríos, and the numerous other PR nationalists did nothing wrong. I understand their motivations on a much deeper level.

“As a geographer, i approve this idea” Another L colonialmind of the geographer for the tally. An entire cartographic fantasymade school that cannot stop legitimising the goals of empire and the social darwinian cataloguing of humanity for the purpose of deterministic pseudoscience and tourism

Colonialism is so enmeshed into the US’s psyche that even progressives put out colonialist nonsense like this. Puerto Rico is not your political chess piece. You have no idea how reactionary you all sound when you speak like this.

do you genuinely not care that Puerto Ricans don't want to be a state?

Last art before I play the new chapter! ✌️

go watch patlabor the movie and think about what happens when kanuka clancy and motoko kusanagi date. new crack ship unlocked you're welcome

is ghost in the shell (1995) good? yes even if I don't like it that much did mamoru oshii trick everyone into thinking ghost in the shell was absolutely in no way about motoko kusanagi being a disaster lesbian? also yes

The oligarchy we had to have

The prime minister is just doing his best, that's why I have to defend everything he does

Wait, so i’m confused. Bad Bunny’s performance was part of what boosted Puerto Rico again into the cultural-political awareness/discussions of recentness, right? I didn’t actually look into all the chat at the time, but I thought he and the performance was explicitly PR Independence and ‘Americas’?

I support people arming themselves. At least safe people in the community who can handle arms. I identify myself as too mentally ill to be safe with them but I support being part of a community where others protect me with them. I even wrote about it for @newrepublic.com

And people with this mindset invariably count themselves as being among the Sensible, which is why almost no law is too authoritarian. If you are among the Sensible, you understand that the government is looking out for you and represents your people. You are just a temporarily embarassed PM.

People are always speaking out against the terror and how it will brutalise us all too but somehow also always refuse to direct an ounce of proportionate retaliation towards the most powerful people in our world who have been desecrating everything for our entire lives for generations. Some reform!

People who laugh and exclaim “why didn’t they just wash their hands!” “take the vax, dummy” “you have lead poisoning” “check your carbon monoxide level” “touch grass” “people are sheep to be lead” Will then upload their govt face ID, biomarkers & DNA online for companies to aggregate for ~purposes~

People love age-verification because they think it just affects kids. But kids don't have IDs. And there are prohibitions on collecting their data. It's the adults, not the kids, who have to submit a face scan, upload a government ID or provide other personally identifying information.

We are the horror, mister.

brave new world but everyone is just on stimulants and has a small following on twitter makes you pause and think doesn't it?

I think it’s rude to leave media like video or a song as a reply. I rarely like it. You’re asking me to take time from my day to view or listen to this thing you think is important, which 9 times of 10 isn’t to me. You don’t know if I like that music or agree. You’re trying to impose on my time.

The Hamburg Massacre took place in S. Carolina 150 yrs ago today: 7/8/1876. Over 100 white men attacked about 30 members of a Black militia unit, leading to more and larger white-on-Black attacks designed to keep Black men from exercising their voting rights in upcoming elections. Image: hmdb.org.

the central criticisms of "all animal products cause suffering" and "all centralized power produces oppression" are like, pretty obviously correct. i say this as someone who is neither an anarchist nor vegan

Will people remember that ICE started with Bush, then expanded under Obama, expanded under Trump, expanded under Biden, and expanded under Trump again? Will they see the Dem complicity in paving the way for a MAGA GOP fascist police state, or will they continue supporting this bipartisan project?

this is imo an example of how data center hatred isn't just reflexive nimbyism

“Far from receiving alms, the modern working proletarians support the whole structure of our society. At first, to be sure, they do not perceive this, but sooner or later they discover that instead of receiving their bread from the capitalist they furnish him his.”

My thoughts? Unthinkable. My drinks? Undrinkable.

in a real world we would have cute and joyful sentient snarky friendo *komas to say “yay, yay, you levelled up!” when you manage to accomplish things like unlocking a new word or recipe and then they would hack into Bezos bank account and defund him for the lolz to keep your robot nonsense in check

reminder that the gits psx game is genuinely an all-timer

IS. THAT. GOOD @edzitron.com

From an early age, children are taught to perceive space primarily through division; allowed to recognize themselves only through the mirror of the state.

Tolkien's heraldic devices for fictional towns in the Lonely Isle from his early legendarium: Celbaros, Kortirion, and Taurobel (1917). They represent important places for Tolkien and his wife Edith: Cheltenham, Warwick, Great Haywood ("Ranon" and "Echtelin" are Ronald and Edith). #TolkienTrewsday

can anyone please help me buy some food? im absolutely out of everything and I feel like trash. I’ve got nothing. Venmo: @paradoxicalthing PayPal: [email protected] Monero: 86YQFbf1YjvJpP5GnAKkwM7bbt91Lvemv2Vu4wcTxvfE6VScdK3nrkU399NwFYAveYEMD3damHSyFGfq7TmesWdSQgEQ8VZ

keeping a list... Naomi Klein and David Sirota are the only media people so far to be at least semi-genuinely contrite over the Platner thing.

Sometimes i worry

We should give everyone the grace to redeem themselves, via a critical national leadership position
