#GifsArtidote: there are signs of #revolution globally, and I think this bright young man is helping to ignite it by explaining the situation to the traumatised and brainwashed people in his country. i think it's white western ppl's responsibility to intervene and fight for them. ppl like myself are, despite being part of outcasts and the underclass, in a stronger position and we have to take accountability for our ancestors. it's not our fault but we have to deal with the present situation and make this stop with us, our generations alive today. i strongly believe it has to start with me, I have to look at my self first and recognise how I enable the system to continue. but whilst building my community and the revolution together.

20 Lessons from the 20th Century About How to Defend #Democracy from #Authoritarianism, According to Yale #Historian #TimothySnyder

in History | January 20th, 2017

"Timothy Snyder, Housum Professor of History at Yale University, is one of the foremost scholars in the U.S. and Europe on the rise and fall of #totalitarianism during the 1930s and 40s. Among his long list of appointments and publications, he has won multiple awards for his recent international bestsellers '#Bloodlands: Europe between #Hitler and #Stalin' and last year’s 'Black Earth: The #Holocaust as History and Warning.' That book in part makes the argument that #Nazism wasn’t only a #German #nationalist movement but had global #colonialist origins—in #Russia, #Africa, and in the #UnitedStates, the nation that pioneered so many methods of human extermination, #racist #dehumanization, and ideologically-justified #LandGrabs.

"The hyper-#capitalism portrayed in the U.S.—even during the Depression—Snyder writes, fueled Hitler’s imagination, such that he promised Germans 'a life comparable to that of the American people,' whose 'racially pure and uncorrupted' German population he described as 'world class.' Snyder describes Hitler’s ideology as a myth of racialist struggle in which 'there are really no values in the world except for the stark reality that we are born in order to take things from other people.' Or as we often hear these days, that acting in accordance with this principle is the 'smart' thing to do. Like many far right figures before and after, Hitler aimed to restore a state of nature that for him was a perpetual state of race war for imperial dominance."

#NavajoNation Dishonors Legacy of #KleeBenally: Agrees to #Uranium Transport Through #Navajo Communities

By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, February 3, 2025

"The Navajo Nation dishonored the memory and legacy of Klee Benally by agreeing to allow radioactive uranium trucks to travel through the Navajo Nation. It was what Klee spent the last years of his life fighting against.

"The deadly trucks from the #EnergyFuels #PinyonPlain uranium mine in the #GrandCanyon will pass through the #Havasupai's homeland, and then past the homes of #Paiute, #Dine' and #Hopi in Arizona before reaching the dumping ground: The Energy Fuels #UraniumMill in the #WhiteMesaUte Community in Southern #Utah.

"Klee is being honored with a #NuclearFreeFutures Award in New York in March.

"Nuclear Free Futures said, in announcing the award, 'Klee Benally was a Navajo activist and musician and member of the Navajo #Tódichiinii Clan and the #Nakai #Diné Clan. In addition to a
musical career with his siblings in the band #Blackfire,

"'Klee was a passionate campaigner and filmmaker exposing the #colonialist legacy of uranium mines and working for the cleanup of the more than 500 abandoned uranium mines that continue to contaminate the Navajo Nation. A month before his death on December 30, 2023, Klee published his book, '#NoSpiritualSurrender: #IndigenousAnarchy in Defense of the Sacred.'

"The award will be accepted by his mother Berta Benally.

"Klee, co-founder of #HaulNo!, warned of the danger to the water and rivers from the uranium mining in the Grand Canyon, and the planned deadly transport of radioactive ore, before he passed in
December 2023: 'There is possible radioactive contamination to land, water, and air from the #CanyonMine, White
Mesa Mill, and transport of uranium would impact northern Arizona, southeast Utah, the #ColoradoRiver, #MoenkopiWash, the #SanJuanRiver, and the lands and cultural resources of the #Havasupai, Hopi, Navajo, Ute, and Paiute peoples.'"

#Nazi #Trump and #whitesupremacist #colonialist #Elon #Musk join forces to slander South Africa's land reform.

They call it "racist ownership land policy" when in fact it has been part of the anti-#apartheid policy that tries to make land ownership more equal among Native South Africans and white colonialists. The latter captured more than 3/4 of the land in South Africa during the colonial period perpetuating the poverty of Native South Africans.

Spray-Tan Stalin’s #Gaza plan is repulsive, #colonialist bullshit.

Also: This is what H*mas has wrought, further disaster for #Gaza residents. #Islamofascist #terrorists aren’t just a threat to the west: they bring endless destruction upon those for whom they claim to be fighting.

The key to ending the #war in the #MiddleEast is in the hands of the #USA. They are the real #culprits . They did not stop sending #weapons, train #military, donate #money, support #colonialist #terrorism. And today #netanjahu does not heed any more, for #Biden, #Harris, nor #Trump will change the #statusquo , knowing #Iran will bark, not bite.

@MadeyeTheCarnaptious @HarriettMB

I think it’s called a money-for-old-rope “sinecure”!

Not so @UKLabour?

If this is the extent of the “change” we were promised then you can stick it up where the sun don’t shine!!

A quotation from Orwell, George:

«
It is a stifling, stultifying world in which to live. It is a world in which every word and every thought is censored. In England it is hard even to imagine such an atmosphere. Everyone is free in England; we sell our souls in public and buy them back in private, among our friends. But even frien…

And I don't see the difference between #Israel & #Netanyahu and #Russia & #Poutine. They're clinging to "power" since pretty much as long. There clearly is no point in the #western propaganda. These western hypocrites just support a #fascist #colonialist regime and that's all.

Geopolitics of Anti-Slavery in the Indian Ocean
The #United #Kingdom's fight against the slave trade in the #Indian Ocean, particularly in #Zanzibar, is seen through the prism of geopolitical relations and the #British crown's colonial ambitions.
At a time when debates on humanitarian intervention have resurfaced in the wake of current conflicts, it is worth looking at the history of this concept and its place in international law. Far from being born out of the Second World #War or even the Cold War, the idea of intervening in a country's internal affairs in the name of human rights actually originated with the British fight against the slave #trade and slavery in the 19th century.
This #book, the result of a thesis by Raphaël Cheriau, an associate member of the Richard Roland Mousnier Centre and the Centre for War Studies in Dublin, seeks to historicise the notion of humanitarian intervention. Drawing in particular on British and #French diplomatic archives, it offers a re-reading of the fight against the slave trade in the Zanzibar archipelago, goes back to the sources of international law and its contradictions, and then discusses the idea that this repression, carried out by the Royal Navy, may in fact have had #colonialist aims.
