A very basic test of U.S. historical literacy is “which side of the slave/free divide in America’s founding wanted slaves to count as a whole person and why” and yet I see it being failed so consistently

The reason we do mutual aid & the reason why mutual aid is grounded in anticapitalist theory from a long time is that capitalism says your survival depends on what you can do for people. We say, no you deserve to survive by virtue of your humanity. If you can't produce, we will help you survive.

And don't say "oh well people didn't know" -- they did know.
There were campaigns to boycott sugar because it was so well known.
Yet when Georgette Heyer wrote her world of the Regency, the politics discussed in it are always corn laws, and never, ever slavery.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

When white supremacist bigots throw a tantrum because they've been forced to confront reality, there are always enablers who will say that the expression of reality is a controversy, or divisive. The implication is that we should change reality to suit the whims of the bigots. Absolutely not.

So the entire reason they're trying to deport ANYONE/EVERYONE
is because they've set quotas.
These quotas are based on the lies they've told, that there are 'millions' of undocumented people ('illegal aliens')...you know the ones the DNC bring in on magic busses to steal votes.
So yeah.

The government says the people being deported are violent criminals, and they treat them inhumanely. But mostly they are subjecting ordinary people to extraordinary punishments.

I think they are selecting for clinical sadists in law enforcement. Not just ICE. These men are angry, violent and just looking for an excuse to hurt himself beings. They shouldn't be in positions of power because they will misuse it.

I'm worried that the broader public isn't really understanding the Epstein Files. The problem isn't that everyone in the files is a secret pedophile, it's that all the people are corresponding with him because they *don't care that he's a pedophile*. It's a story of elite impunity.
You can look at the Epstein files and conclude that only bad people have billions of dollars, but I think it’s also possible that having billions of dollars cauterizes your humanity

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

I see all the other countries do what KASH and PAM will not do.
Open up investigations into people that the Epstein files mention.
In the USA, they'd have us still all believe 1200 kids raped themselves, and no need to investigate all the billionaires and cabinet members in the files.

One of my most woke opinions: France needs to pay back all the money they made Haiti pay for their independence (with interest).
I cannot sufficiently underline how despicable it is that the IOC has required Haitian Olympic athletes to remove an image representing the leader of the Haitian Revolution (against SLAVERY) from their uniforms.
