Indigenous People's Day
6 days ago
This morning I listened to the 46th annual broadcast of Radio Free Alcatraz on KPFA, which honors John Trudell's broadcasts there during the original takeover of Alcatraz in 1969.
Trump has said that he wants to take over Alcatraz and turn it into an immigration detention center for "The worst of the worst", a la Alligator Alcatraz. I explained why that will never happen here:

Today Democracy Now! had a segment where Julian Brave NoiseCat told the remarkable story of his new book, We Survived the Night.

Nothing short of appalling.
To be fair, we are so fed up of this POS nothing surprises us anymore. I was willing to take more damage economically, as there are still an argument there. But between his zionism bullshit and now this....No. Just no. There are elections this month, and hopefully, he gets crippled in the senate.
There's a difference between cruel economy in a country like this (emerging from an absolutely corrupt socialism) and being a straight up genocidal fascist.
What do you think of Machado winning the Nobel Peace Prize?
Oh, after Obama and the Colombian's president won the NPP, I lost all respect for that thing xP They have lost all its integrity.
And sounds like here, where more often than not I find myself choosing just which evil to vote for.
You can call Milei a POS and he'll flip you off and call you a turd, but the other ones would make you disappear. So...it's a Trump or Maduro kinda situation.
Yeah...politics have become a joke. So we on the ground need to pivot and re-think our strategies. I'm just so fed up of people, I can't do much anymore xD
But I say there needs to be an activism that teaches its basis and how to teach people about neutrality, economy and the nature of politics, human nature, etc. Like a parale education program. No biases, no emotions, just straight neutral facts.
If these times are teaching us something is that information alone is not enough.
I'll stick with trying to find truth and prove it.

Or I suppose that it's really just speaking to their intended audience...
