#GlobalMajority

Continued thread

The same goes for people of the #globalmajority —and anti-Blackness is *often* demonstrated by non-Black people of the global majority.

Your #oppressed identities do not make you immune to oppressing others. If anything, they can sometimes encourage you to hold fiercely to the remaining power and #privilege that you *can* access.

@KuteboiCoder @vriska @shortstories @amerika the poverty in the so-called "thirdworld" is TOTALLY engineered, these people's cultures and land were RICH as fluke, they just didn't think to, or BELIEVE in, or prioritize making efficient instruments of warfare and mass murder and slavery.

the collapse of the soviet union made the US even more predatious and exploitative, obesity afghanistan was about securing lithium for the phones that would make us sick, and for the opiods that would make us sick, obesity percentage-wise went from the single digits in 1990 to around 40% in the usa today. The sicknesses INCLUDING the mental illnesses is a DIRECT result of the "wealth" stolen extracted from other parts of the world the usa abused. Today, it disgusts most of the world's population, they now see it, they can see the sickness envelope the west now. I personally think its too late for many people, especially due to the quasi-forced medical experimentation during covid, they will likely have early outset of problems. i'm sad because i tried to be a voice against this progression for 10 years.

what the west has been masterful at, is bombing ppl out of their home contries by giving weapons to extremist factions in those countries, so they've been able to bring in fresh healthier refugees, but i think that trick is no longer being tolerated anymore by an increasingly connected and aware #globalSouth/ #globalMajority.

It would seem to us that the war can only end when every one of the approximately 17,000 hapless nazis and criminals exported to the #Ukraine from 52 countries, often indoctrinated in #FacebookGroups, are neutralised.

For **many** reasons, the #GlobalMajority is **not** on the side of Ukraine.

@tomcrinstam @zleap
The problem with "getting a WWII history book" is it would show that the #USA and #UK funded and gave rise to the nazi regime back then to mine Europe and to be a bulwark against #theRussians, and they were able to do it the same thing again in Ukraine.

Everyone who is not blinded by greed knows what is going on.

Just because some are too afraid to understand, don't think that the #globalMajority are.

"As a member of the African diaspora, the festival’s curation feels personal to me – as if it was designed for me. Yet I wonder how other members of the Global Majority will experience it, and I wonder how white people will experience it."

Presenting the BEST BOLLYWOOD SONG EVER MADE*!!

(*Haha, jk. As a white Midwestern dude, I have absolutely zero authority on the matter, except to say that it’s *a* best Bollywood song ever made.)

In fact, I’m positive there are others. That’s the nature of Bollywood, no? My playlist and I would be really happy if this gets boosted and I get more #BBSEMs in the comments. Thanks!

I'm sure you have come across this article from the NY Times about which words and phrases you should and cannot use. The political divisions are profound in terms of what you use. I guess and haven't caught steam yet. I only heard recently & it's only US specific. Would love to hear global perspectives on nomenclature when describing terms or groups, especially from those who are not in circles.

A friend of mine tagged me on a recent post about White-identifying practitioners not doing enough as opposed to us who are from the . We have been doing this work for a while now and it never seems to be enough to leaders. Something has to give. If you haven't seen the post, here it is.
