Because I recently had to crumple up a cracKKKa who wandered into this community, uhh, let me be clear:

Good luck, comrade
I have similar vibes too as well
Me too, but i have a presentation
Don’t worry, if you can set up one of those Indigenous megathreads, you can prolly do it…
Nah, sadly i have to talk about the interworking of the secretary of culture of México, no fun indigenous culture facts
Although one proyect is a cientific article about sichuan pre and post the introduction of chili peppers and it should be fun
Just saw the phrase “no n word November”
I think we’re in actual hell
Are the
s okay?The implication that they’re only doing it for the month…
Perhaps they’d like No noggin November better
okay okay okay my last rant, I remember sometime when I was a kid, idk how old I was, but I remember seeing a post talking about the myth of camel spiders in Iraqi and how Americans used it to gain sympathy for their soldiers, and the first thing I thought of was “Iraqis and by extension we aren’t humans to these people”, they show this hoax of a big ass spider that apparently eats people or something in Iraq and they used it to say “oooh our poor wittle twoops” instead of having sympathy towards the Iraqi people for dealing with them, or idk better yet THE AMERICAN SOLDIERS MURDERING RAPING AND TORTURING THEM.
okay okay okay my last rant
no, keep ranting, NOW!
i agree, always get some good insight from a Rania comment
no rant, only love, everyday I grow more love and appreciation towards y’all that I didn’t know was possible, like I don’t know how but it keeps happening, love y’all moah moah

hababibi
dang i really would despise most of the people on this site irl but this empoc comm is nice
This is the only comm on Hexbear where I can expect it to be pretty much completely free of garbage. Some things may fall through the cracKKKs every now and then, but, y’know, I fix it real quick.
Did something happen on here?
people typed
That would do it
Another thing against the generation shit: most of them are based on white western mostly anglo speakers of that generation, the definition of gen z fits mostly white middle class Americans, “the generation the grew up on phones” only in the west the rest of them in the third world didn’t, even when being critical of things some will say “most of gen z lingo is stolen from AAL” as in white people taking slang from African Americans, when people say gen z they don’t include black people born from 1995 to 2010. Boomers aren’t inherently racist Trump supporters, Xoomers aren’t inherently centrist edgelords, mellenials aren’t inherently Harry potter avocado hillary clinton, these are white features not generational features.
A lot of black Boomers straight-up took bullets for civil rights or shot klansman and cops. It’s often overlooked in generational discourse.
Something that really hit home for me listening to Good Kid, m.A.A.d. City was that I’m around the same age as Kendrick Lamar and yet his experiences of the '90s were awful. I’ve known about the Rodney King riots because I was alive at the time, but GKmC put it into perspective there were people whose childhoods were affected by those same riots. Columbine was a shock, as well as the Oklahoma City Bombing, but it doesn’t compare living in a place at the height of the Blood-Crips feud.
My point is how it’s utterly bizarre generations get lumped together while ignoring other factors. Kids who grew up in Compton in the '80s and '90s have more in common with kids who grew up in New York during the 1920s and '30s than they do with kids the same age who grew up in suburbs. Lumping generations together like this seems bad for even capitalists. They’re leaving money on the table when they market products towards a generation without considering how different experiences can be within that generation.

this is what me think of this.
these are white features not generational features.
Too bad, because who’s got the media infrastructure and English language to dominate the Anglophone conversation, the
Pretty much. I’ve heard younger Indians and Saudis refer to their older generations as “boomers.” Even Russian liberals call the generation nostalgic for the USSR “boomers.”
Well they already normalise killing brown people abroad. May as well normalize kkk outfits. There’s barely any black people in canada and they’re going absolutely stupid over indian immigrants there.

holy shit death to kkkanada
KKKlanada, as of de rigeur…
Instead of New Afrikans and East-Asians, they have mainly refined hate against South-Asians, and Indigenous Peoples…
I did a 40km day hike last week, a personal record.
Wasn’t even intentional, but the path I was supposed to take was closed because of a landslip and had to take a detour and just decided to walk back instead of using the bus.
Pretty happy about that.
And I have been managing my anxiety quite well lately too so can’t complain.
How are all my comrades doing?
Alhamdulillah things are looking up in my life.
stressed. but i went to a ren fair yesterday.
Honestly, I feel like with how doomery everything has been as of late, I needed to hear this. Glad for you.
First, UlyssesT, now sneak100… Ah crud…
What happened
Their accounts are gone… deleted
UlyssesT is gone? Did they say why?
https://hexbear.net/comment/5613513 (tl;dr: last post was about OPsec issues and contingency plan under Trump’s term)
Strange. Nobody cares about lemmy, let alone hexbear.
Could be somethin’ else… the closest thing I’ve heard of anyone public caring of Lemmy’s politics was this niche study on extreme left rhetoric, focusing on Lemmygrad, that we dunked upon…
😮😮😮😮😮
Why KKKracKKKerSS always be trippin’ fr
no rhythm 💯
Idk, they on the next {insert medication}-in?
The global south experience: the “civilized” world subjugates and enslaves you and steals natural resources from you for hundreds of years, after independence fought or not your nation is still going to get screwed over by neo-colonialism or western sponsored fascist coups or sanctions, all the resources used by the north were used to make funko pops that cost your pay to produce and your life to buy, also those funko pops are made so inefficiently that they destroy the Earth, with the earth getting less liveable your nation is unable to do anything to stop it because it didn’t have the time to develop, a lot of the times people can’t even afford AC units, and if you try to go a global north country legally you’ll get denied, and you’ll get shot if you do it illegally.
Anyhow I got a miswak last week, lowkey didn’t know they were this good damn.I think neocolonialism happening today is also considerably more efficient at stealing wealth
Our results show that in 2015 the North net appropriated from the South 12 billion tons of embodied raw material equivalents, 822 million hectares of embodied land, 21 exajoules of embodied energy, and 188 million person-years of embodied labour, worth $10.8 trillion in Northern prices
For instance, 21 exajoules of energy would be enough to cover the annual energy requirements of building out necessary infrastructure to ensure that all 6.5 billion people in the global South have access to decent housing, public transport, healthcare, education, sanitation, communication, etc. (Kikstra et al., 2021a). Eight hundred and twenty-two million hectares of land, which is twice the size of India, would in theory be enough to provide nutritious food for up to 6 billion people, depending on land productivity and diet composition (Poore and Nemecek, 2018).

Miswak is fun, my mom brings them with her when she returns from overseas.
Soak them in water, chew em, and brush.
On a personal level part of the global south experience for me has been being told by USAmericans that I must have solidarity with the people who supported and were part of the invasion of my country because they are also oppressed minorities
Real “what have Palestinians done for us (African Americans)” energy.
Like bitch why do they have to?
Yeah no fuck that. It’s our job in the US to have solidarity with the global south, not the other way around. Plenty of minorities get by without taking part in white supremacy. Signing up for the military is an active choice a person makes. It’s a conscious choice to kill people you don’t know for your own personal gain.
Like there are hitmen in the US with a higher code of ethics.
“Why can’t you Vietnamese act in solidarity with these U.S-backed Hmong mercenaries?”
And said nations are the main cause of the planet getting destroyed. And we’re the ones that get hit first. Oh and these guys get to define who are humanised and not. Yes the people responsible for the greatest genocides in human history and the greatest ones to come along with the annihilation of most life on earth get to define who is to be dehumanised. Humanity is a massive joke
Miswak gang
The global south experience:
Yep not good… all I wish for Christmas is a multipolar world to reverse that
Anyhow I got a miswak last week, lowkey didn’t know they were this good damn.
Huh…
I simply didn’t know how much I needed it, because I can’t stay in one place and I don’t like the feeling of toothpaste in my mouth, but I can walk around while using a miswak, I can even use it in bed before I sleep
