British working-class people in London protesting against mass-immigration in 1968 just days after Enoch Powell was sacked from his position as Shadow Defence Secretary for giving the famous “Rivers of Blood speech.”
In it, he warned of violence stemming from mass-immigration.

Забараніць ўсім ябацца да 25!
Усіх нязгодных выслаць на вёску, падымаць калгасы.
@Bychkowski АК і Лясныя браты ня мелі этнічных чыстак у сваёй праграме.
Асобныя выпадкі у АК былі, у братоў - ня ��едаю, не чытаў на гэтую тэму. Але гэта не была мэтанакіраваная палітыка. А ў УПА - яна была і была рэалізавана. І пад гэты піздарэз папалі не толькі палякі.
In 1992, a 32-year-old historian became Prime Minister of Estonia.
He had read exactly one book on economics: Milton Friedman's Free to Choose.
He used it as a policy manual. Western advisors and Estonian economists told him it would fail. 🧵
Today is 37 years since the Tiananmen Massacre
On this day in 1989, the Chinese Communist Party ordered the People's Liberation Army to open fire on its own citizens.
Peaceful pro-democracy students and workers who gathered in Beijing's Tiananmen Square demanding freedom, anti-corruption, and basic human rights were crushed under tanks and gunfire.
The protests began in mid-April 1989, triggered by the death of reformist leader Hu Yaobang. On May 13, students began a hunger strike. Martial law was declared on May 20, but protesters remained peaceful.
In the early hours of June 4, troops advanced with tanks and live ammunition. Soldiers fired on unarmed civilians blocking their path in the streets surrounding the square.
Hundreds to thousands were killed. Thousands more were imprisoned, tortured, or disappeared.
To this day, the Chinese government censors all mention of it, erases it from history books, and threatens anyone who remembers.
@vol_heart@Piegziu Євреї на Волині оселилися за часів ВЛК, і ті масові погроми, які вони там пережили, — це були погроми Хмельницького та нальоти гайдамаків у 18 столітті. А щодо чехів та вірмен, хоча б відкрий сторінку Волинської різанини вірменською та чеською, там достатньо написано.
@vol_heart@Piegziu А чи були волинські євреї також відповідальними за «окупацію українських земель», тому їх вбивали нарівні з поляками? А волинські чехи? А вірмени, які жили там ще з часів Середньовіччя? Їх теж УПА вирізала за «окупацію українських земель»?
Reporting from the Financial Times on Xinjiang remains incredibly grim:
* In some areas, 90% of children are taken from parents to be educated in boarding schools where they aren't allowed to speak Uyghur
* Officials monitor who eats during Ramadan and report those who skip meals
* Basic items like prayer mats and religious text are considered illegal contraband
* Adult Uyghur women are pressured to marry Han Chinese men, and there are official goals to sterilize a certain % of them.
* Xinjiang has the largest prison capacity in the world relative to population
* Huge numbers of Uyghur prisoners are now being shipped across the country in forced labor schemes, as a way to dodge Xinjiang sanctions/boycotts
* The CCP shut down all 10 existing Uyghur-language publishers, none remain. They fed one university's book collection into a shredder.
There's a lot going on the world, but it's worth remembering that China is still actively engaged in cultural genocide. They're barely even hiding it, they openly talk about the need to 'correct' Uyghur culture and create 'ethnic unity'. They are openly destroying an entire culture as efficiently as they can, cutting children off from parents, restricting language, restricting religious practice, forcing sterilizations and intermarriage, imprisoning anyone who resists the tiniest amount and shipping them out to forced labor factories. That is what the CCP is.

@Z_o_y_a__@hammerofvision@TheAtlantic@thomaschattwill Finnish Kalevala was an oral epic that was passed down from generation to generation for centuries until it was published in the 19th century(!!!). The Turkic-speaking peoples have also preserved many examples of oral epic poetry.
@thegokanijiku@jankahater@DaiXGurren Instead of creating your own characters, you steal other people’s and then wonder why the author blocks you? You’re either incredibly stupid or cheeky.
Age verification for the internet is the end of human rights and freedom of speech for generations to come.
We are watching the freedom values of Western civilization collapse — adopting the same digital cage that others are already trapped in.
Human rights are taken away every single day — all because too many of us are still not ready to defend them, mistakenly believing these rights are simply given.
Generations fought for these freedoms, high standards of values, and paid with their lives so that we could enjoy and live in a free Western society.
Ask yourself: what have you done, and what are you doing every day, to protect this heritage?
@EatsHorseATT@BitaBehz Until Europeans started buying all of this for large sums of money. The Egyptians established entire dynasties that, for generations, engaged in tomb raiding and the forgery of ancient Egyptian artefacts.
