Hmm
In the Los Angeles Mexican community no one is fucking aware. In the Chicago black community no one is fucking aware. I’m sick of the people in this shit hole. They are happy as long as they have their bread and circus, no matter what.
When Spez went full cunt. To be fair, I was an IRC nerd to start off though.
But it is…
Lazy. Most people don’t want to learn how shit works. They just want it to work. They’ll get what they pay for in the end.
edit: downvote all you want. it’s a correct assertion to the question. just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it correct.
The majority of hip-hop I listen to is female. Tierra Whack (who imho is one of the world’s all time greatest rapper), Latto, Glorilla, Megan Thee Stallion, Bea (despite the beef), Audrey Nuna, Young Miko, City Girls, Cardi B, Mariah the Scientist, Omeretta the Great, Doja, Ms. Nina, Renni Rucci, Lady Lashure, THOT Squad, Londynn B, LightSkinKeisha, REI AMI, Baby Tate, Tommy, Noname, Nitty Scott … and so on

I quit. It was simple. The fediverse is a great replacement.
I’m not rephrasing shit because you’re incapable of reading.
Hey internet… the shitty bot account doesn’t know how to look info up on Carter and East Timor. Can you please do it for it?
Jimmy Carter’s administration faced significant criticism for its handling of the East Timor situation during Indonesia’s occupation. Despite Carter’s reputation as a champion of human rights, his presidency saw a continuation and even expansion of military support to Indonesia while it committed atrocities in East Timor[1][2].
In 1977-1978, as Indonesia engaged in wholesale destruction of East Timor through massive bombardment and forced relocation of populations, the Carter Administration increased the flow of military equipment to Indonesia[1]. This included supplying OV-10 Broncos, planes designed for counterinsurgency operations, which were used in ferocious attacks that devastated East Timor[1][2].
The administration’s response to the crisis was particularly troubling:
U.S. officials, including Assistant Secretary of State Richard Holbrooke, misled Congress about the situation in East Timor, downplaying the severity of the conflict[2].
When the CIA reported that Indonesia was running out of weapons due to the intensity of its bombardment, the Carter administration responded by increasing military sales to Indonesia in 1978[2].
The administration provided ground attack fighters like OV-10 Broncos, A-4s, and F-5s, knowing they would be used against East Timor’s civilian population[2].
Carter later expressed regret for his lack of intervention, admitting in a 2007 interview that he was not as thoroughly briefed about the situation in East Timor as he should have been[2]. However, this does not negate the fact that his administration’s policies contributed to the deaths of tens of thousands of East Timorese during his years in office[1][3].

Greg Stoker was just making fun of Chuck Schumer yelling “We will win” on the steps of (I think the treasury?) before dipping permanently.
It’s sad how lacking of recent historical context people have. They always point to Carter and it’s like… frustrating.
Obama bombed a wedding of civilians not to mention hid Afghanistan casualty reports, was a part of the death of half a million Iraqi casualties, was part of the Syrian hell that targeted mainly children with fatalities at 191,000 by 2014, then there was Yemen and saber rattling on Iran and full support of Israel. Carter sadly oversaw the East Timor genocide at 25% of the population or 170,000 killed.
He oversaw East Timor

Humans aren’t going to evolve towards intelligence. We’re a pretty short-sighted stupid species. We’re going to continue to devolve and kill ourselves off, one way or another.

My gay friends are all like “Oh boy I can’t wait to eat at Chic Fil E”, my Latina friends are all like… “I have a last mine Quince coming up… I have to get a dress. Gonna shop Amazon”, and my black friends are like “I’ve boycotted long enough. Going to shop at Target.”
We definitely deserve what we get, here. We realllly do.
