tw human experimentation
oooo boy do I love art, such a fun subject, looking up human experimentation for a silly lil sculpture and discovering the covered up experiments performed by the CIA in Canada on non-consenting/kidnapped children, trying to "cure" autism/schizophrenia by electroshocking and drug abuse :D
oo oo oo also the mind control ones are reeeaaally fun (im being so fucking sarcastic right now)
wow, America amirite :D
The fact that the Czech republic voted against the cease fire with it's history of being taken over by other countries throughout history is so baffling to me
It is fucking disgusting that the US is even able to do this shit.
Last week, FEMA announced a nearly $9 billion shortfall for Hurricane Helene recovery efforts. On the same day, Israel announced it was receiving $8.7 billion in military funding from the United States. Since then, Hurricane Helene has devastated communities across six states as flooding stretches for over 600 miles.
The storm’s devastation and lack of government funding for local infrastructure and response has left over 100 people reported dead with hundreds more unaccounted for. Millions of Americans are stranded without water, food, electricity, or gas.
Every dollar the US government spends on genocide in Palestine cannot be used to protect our own communities. The US cannot continue to provide billions of dollars in weapons for Israel’s war crimes in Gaza and Lebanon while Americans suffer from lack of investment here.
We understand this catastrophe within the context of the Israeli government’s genocide and ongoing dispossession of people across the Middle East. We cannot mourn the loss of precious people and places in this country and turn away from the same devastation our tax dollars fund in Palestine and Lebanon.
We cannot separate the climate crisis we’re witnessing at home from the immense damage to the earth the US and Israeli militaries have caused for decades. Israeli colonialism is responsible for the destruction of Palestine’s natural ecological systems and a major contributor to climate change. The US military is the biggest contributor to global climate catastrophe.
Palestinian liberation includes ending the climate crisis and protecting all people — from the US to Palestine. We will not waver in our demand for our government to STOP ARMING ISRAEL and end the preventable deaths of so many across Palestine, Lebanon, and the United States.
Regarding that last reblog:
If you're in the US PLEASE call your state reps and tell them to vote no on the RESTRICT act (look up your senator here, and your house representatives here). It's a blatant act of censorship that WILL affect the entirety of the internet (you think anti-net neutrality movements are bad? This is worse). Your call doesn't have to be long, but it is key that your reps know you will fight for their losses in the next primary if they vote in favor of this bill. Reasoning with their "human sensibilities" doesn't work with people in that position, you must threaten their power. It would help if you could convince your family members to do the same (if they are a conservative/republican just ask them if they're okay with "a socialist like Biden being able to censor your Internet." It worked on my uncle and he is very conservative).
So the media keeps mentioning this bill as a TikTok ban but the actual contents are even more concerning. The bill is called the RESTRICT Act and targets six "enemy" countries from the US. It is very vague and gives the government an excuse to restrict citizens' access to foreign technology competing with US companies.
Why do I imply this is about boosting US tech monopolies and not national security concerns as the government claims?
From the article: "But the bill’s implications go beyond TikTok. It’s designed to let the federal government pre-empt situations in which technology produced in any of the six authoritarian countries named in the bill becomes popular in the U.S."
new pinned because I will not stop screeching about internet privacy ever. oppose the EARN IT act if you don't like being spied on online at your state's leisure
do this petition
do this one also
they take like 5 minutes each to reword. you can do it in the time it takes to heat something in the oven
and as a far more impactful and personal option, call your reps. it takes like maybe 10 minutes; you can do all of this in under half an hour, less than your lunch break. it'll make a difference. I promise. use the points in the petition websites to figure out what you're going to say. you will make an impact.
if you want to organize, go here. power in numbers.
KOSA BILL AND BAD INTERNET BILLS UPDATE:
Making my own because I'm tired of kids spreading misinformation.
What happened today?
Today Kosa was signed for markup, and to our pain it passed. But that isn't the end at all, especially since two senators voiced their concerns about this bill thanks to all the people emailing and calling.
The senate is currently in recess till September, and that gives us a month to keep the calls and emails coming, to make sure this bill never becomes a law. Our fighting doesn't end here, at all.
What can i do?
Any questions?
Petitions to sign, scripts and numbers:
Important
KOSA is coming back and it has gotten more support than ever. The bill has recently gained support from companies such as Twitter, Snapchat, and Microsoft. If this bill continues to gain more and more bipartisan support, the chances of it passing are going to increase. If this bill passes, everyone’s private information is going to be at a high risk and, depending on which state you’re in, very important topics are going to be wiped off of the face of the internet and free speech won’t be an option.
Please, call your senators, send your senators an email, or send a physical letter to your senators. We need to continue fighting and put an end to this dogshit bill.
Can’t lose this!
fyi the point of fucking up your data patterns isnt to avoid suspicion. it’s to make EVERYONE suspicious. same logic as the bloc, pals. protect your comrades, be suspicious. ESPECIALLY if you aren’t doing anything likely to get you arrested.
if this ain't the truth I don't know what is
End blood quantum now
Blood quantum is how much native blood you have in you and it needs to be a certain threshold to qualify you as a tribal member. Blood quantum varies from tribe to tribe.
It means my mom is a tribal member but because my dad is outside of my tribe... I don't have enough tribal blood to enroll. Neither does my daughter. Our "official" indigeneity ended with me.
My dad is still native tho. Just southern native. Others have two parents enrolled in separate tribes and can't enroll in either one despite being Full native because their parents were mixed with other tribes so they don't have enough blood of Any tribe to qualify.
And to what end are they doing this?
Under the treaties the US govt can lay no claim to native land. So how do they fix that? Get rid of the natives, of course.
And since they can't slaughter us in broad daylight anymore they did the next best thing. What the colonial government has ALWAYS done to us and other poc.
Made up a bunch of arbitrary laws to restrain and limit our power and numbers.
And this can't continue. We are the only race who needs to apply to be part of the community we were born into. The only race who needs to prove our blood.
And that's the thing: it's not even based on blood. Racist scientists defined who was a full-blooded native based on things like shoe size, head circumference, and skin pigment.
Not blood. And besides that it wasn't uncommon for outsiders to become part of a tribe!! You didn't need to be native by blood to be native! Blood quantum has made it IMPOSSIBLE for them to qualify and made it impossible for tribes to practice that long time aspect of our culture.
So please share this post. So many people legitimately think natives are extinct and even less are aware that we do more than just sit around drinking all day. Few people have good feelings about us and within that there are a few who actively help. Please be one of those few.
We need support and allies and for our voices to be heard. Please don't let this post just be me screaming into a void. We need people to know what blood quantum is, how archaic and harmful it is, and to help us spread awareness to people who otherwise would ignore us. Use your privilege.
Reblog if you're queer, have ADHD, or hate the government.
Nobody needs to know which one.
so we’re all gonna fucking DIE because grown men are two faced whiny cunts because they don’t wanna give people basic human rights. Thats so fun!
can we all just agree that taking land from people is bad? like in all senses of the term. colonization of native peoples, repossession of land from the poor, all of it. all people deserve a place to live that isn't being taken by a foreign gov't OR their own.
I hope western leftists know that standing for a free Palestine is not the end of decolonization. I've seen far too many white leftists who proudly stand for freeing Palestine which is good but then get nervous and apprehensive at the idea of decolonizing the very land they are on. Norway will recognize Palestine but actively tear down Sámi liberation. Liberation for one people means it for us all. If you support Palestinian liberation but deny it for the Indigenous people of the land you're on then you didn't stand for Palestinians or any of us to begin with.
I find my hyperfixations so fucking funny cause one second I'm ranting about the happy gay little people in this book I'm reading and the next I'm lecturing you about fascim in America, the benefits of communism and how we are all being exploited
Ugh I can't stand the whole world right now
What going on today? Oh some sh*t g3n0c!d3, f@sc!m and any crimes that against humanity around the world some counties that are suffering I can't just stand there doing nothing f*CK the Z!on!sts,F*CK r@cists and any sh*tty person on the planet this is so annoyed we want ceasefire now
If you eat today, thank a farmer, NOT your Government!
❤️Love your local farmer - buy their produce❤️❣️
