The account at https://troet.cafe/@m7moodfamily (@m7moodfamily@troet.cafe) is a scam. It’s got hundreds of posts even though it joined yesterday and it links to gaza-verified.org even though we have not verified it.
I’m also seeing copies of the account on troet.cafe and elsewhere. Be careful with any a…

Today, a year ago, I ventured on a dream trip I'd been researching for a long time, and which ended up being a semi-religious experience, being immersed in (and somewhat overwhelmed by) an actively changing environment, the upheaval and plethora of geological features, structures, unreal colors, layers, textures and the "wounds" exposed by the melting and disappearing glaciers... Countless waterfalls, stunning erosion features, later traversing the glacier ga…

"I have made [PM Mark Carney] very popular”
"We're going to be talking about Gaza”
"We could have peace in the Middle East”
he jokes “The Merger of Canada and USA”
Carney: ‘that's not where I was going”
Carney looks bemused as The American Fascist talks about the ‘hell hole' that DC was.
he's talking about "zero" people coming through the south border.
... Carney doing his best to keep a straight face... the things that must be going through his mind as the Fascist rambles about Canada benefiting from Venezuelan boats being blown up.

October 23rd, 1989, 36 years ago, on #climate, we got the POV from outside. 🚀🌍👀
Atlantis Commander Donald Williams said:

“Our world is a beautiful place, and we do need to take care of it. You get an appreciation of how thin the protective layer is above the planet …

I've had a few of these thoughts stuck in my craw all day because I watched this liberal historian talk about the Galleanisti.
https://youtube.com/shorts/93yHEn8BYE4
Basically, she says that "of course the government had the right to target them." Then she goes on to talk about how it became an excuse to carry out a bunch of attacks on other marginalized people. Now, the Galleanisti had been bombing the houses of politicians and such. I get where she's coming from saying that one of their targets "was in the right" to try to catch them. But there's some context she's not talking about at all.
These were Italian anarchists, so they were not white and they were part of an already marginalized political group. Basically all of Europe and the US was trying to wipe out anarchists at the time. Meanwhile, the sitting president at the time showed the first movie in the White House. That movie was KKK propaganda, in which he was favorably quoted. The US was pretty solidly white supremacist in the 1920's.
Like... A major hidden whole premise of the game "Bioshock: Infinite" is that if you went back to the US in the 1920's, and you had magic powers, you would absolutely use them to kill as many cops as possible and try to destroy society. There's a lot of other stuff in there, I don't want to get distracted, but "fuck those racists," specifically referring to the US in the 1920's, was a major part of a major game.
Those Italian anarchists were also stone cutters. They carved grave stones. But the dust from that can kill you, much like black lung for coal miners. So they were dying from unsafe working conditions, regularly raising money to support dying coworkers and then carving gravestones for those same coworkers.
Now, I personally think insurrectionary anarchism is a dead end. I disagree with it as a strategy. We've seen it fail, and it failed there. But of course it makes sense that they wanted to blow up the government.
...And that's the correct way to structure that. When you say, "of course they were in the right" you're making a very clear political statement. You could easily say, "the cops in Vichy France had every right to hunt down the French Resistance." You would technically be correct, I guess. But it would really say something about your politics if you justified the actions of Nazi collaborators over those fighting against the Nazis.
And you may say, "oh, but the Nazis didn't have justification for anything. They invaded a sovereign nation, so their government wasn't legitimate anyway."
To which I would reply, "have you considered a history book about the US?"
