"200 yrs ago, the State we now call Mexico was established. After 300 yrs of the Spanish Conquista, in 1862, 65% of the population spoke an indigenous language. Today, we speakers of indigenous languages make up 6.5%… Our languages are not dying, they are being killed." - Yásnaya Aguilar #LangSky

No matter how bad you think it was, it was WORSE The campaigns of racial terror inflicted on Black Americans post-Civil War was VERY much intended to reinforce the prior status quo even if Black Americans were no longer enslaved /1

This The fash are HEAVILY armed, if you have the means to equip yourself for self defense; do so ASAP

The "rule of law" is a worthless concept when the powerful run wild destroying peoples lives with no consequences while those of us who oppose these abominable policies face severe harm as a result Laws mean NOTHING when they are weaponized by fascists 24/7

An eighth grader is showing more courage than many elected Democrats right now.

In case y'all didn't get the memo, the 1st Amendment is DEAD This is such a fucking EGREGIOUS violation of Article 1, that I don't think I have sufficiently harsh curse words to articulate just how much this enrages me as a citizen /1

Wankpanzer sales for Q1 were around 6400 vs ~13k in Q4 last year LOL That's a 50% drop and the sale volume was pathetic as it was🤣 Keep it going! #TeslaTakedown

ACAB and fuck these corporate piggies for trying to hide what cops are doing 95% of the time; whatever they do is NOT for the public good, it's for the benefit of capital & the wealthy

Don’t love that this got relegated to “the other side,” but I stand but what I said; this is utterly illegal and a violation of the basic principles of American rule of law.

The courts were never gonna save us, this cowardice and greed for power from the Supremely Corrupt Court makes THAT abundantly clear So, we all gonna step up as citizens who's rights are being demolished by a fascist regime? Or do we cower, waiting for our turn in being kidnapped and enslaved?

Random thought that I must infli-I mean share with you all: "We goon not because it is easy, but because it is hard."

So they want to be able to drop ship slaves to whatever country that needs them? This is just the slave trade but digitalized.

Always good on Appomattox day to remember that Robert E. Lee was a vile human being whose historical portayal as a reluctant defender of slavery is based on complete fabrication. He was a committed white supremacist who believed slavery reflected a natural order and commanded his army as such.

I'd add that the portrayal of Lee as a military genius is also completely dishonest. Lee was directly responsible for the strategic decision that lost the war for the Confederacy (1863 invasion of the north) and made that decision for dumb and foolish reasons.

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

#OtD 9 Apr 1945 Georg Elser, a factory worker and folk musician who tried single-handedly to kill Hitler, was murdered in the Dachau concentration camp. He was killed on the orders of Himmler just a few days before its liberation stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1087...

🎯 The Confederacy constitution EXPLICITLY lays out the enshrinement of the enslaving of Black people into law So anyone who says it was *just* about "states rights" is full of shit, it was about A STATES RIGHT TO PERPETUATE SLAVERY and using WHITE SUPREMACY TO JUSTIFY IT

An extremely dark day, the day the Israelis went from being the oppressed to being the oppressors
