I don't care if you're a #BCNDP supporter/loyalist. You probably wouldn't be if their shitass political decisions harmed you, your family & loved ones directly. I'm #AntiGovernment because of the harms governments have caused me & my loved ones. I don't trust politicians because they've proven to be pathological #hypocrite #liars. Only fools would try to tell me to support any #political party that's OK killing me & my loved ones.

Shove it where the sun don't shine -> all #colonial #bootlickers

#SA became not just a society in which some people were #slaves, but a fully-fledged #slavesociety…the institution of #slavery touched all aspects of life, as slavery was central to the social, economic and legal institutions. As the boundaries of the Cape Colony expanded…slaves were put to work on the #wine and #wheat farms of the south-western Cape…the #colonial economy could not function without the use of #slavelabour, and therefore slave-ownership was widespread.

4) In the 20th century up to the present, South #Louisianians use #Cajun generally as a synonym for #White and #Creole generally as a synonym for #Black.

Also, in the 21st century especially, there have been activists who've sought to recapture the original use of #Creole as just meaning 'local'

Comment penser les intimités interraciales en contexte colonial, quand celles-ci restent sous les radars administratifs ? En suivant la trajectoire d'une famille en Nouvelle-Calédonie, Benoît Trépied et Adrian Muckle reconstituent, en croisant ethnographie et archives, les conditions et les limites de relations dont l'invisibilisation fait ressortir les limites du contrôle colonial.

a bunch of ideas to wonder at here, are they creating that? communicating? banishing? is it the unnatural modern world vs. the old ways?

Reading a book called "The Dawn Of Everything" which talks a lot about how the modern world and even our ideas of history are a construction.

If it falls, that thing will probably break, and I don't think it will do much damage there. If it rises maybe it will become a star.
