Aimé Césaire wrote it in 1950 and Europe has been trying to ignore it ever since.

In Discourse on Colonialism, he stated plainly: what the "very distinguished, very humanistic, very Christian bourgeois of the twentieth century" found unforgivable about Hitler was not what he did.

It was to whom he did it.

Hitler applied to European people the methods that Europe had been applying to African and Asian people for centuries.

The dehumanization.
The racial hierarchy.
The biological categorization that placed some human beings outside the protections extended to others.
The organized, bureaucratic, industrialized killing.

None of that was new.

The novelty was the victims.

When Léopold II ran the Congo as a personal extraction enterprise and killed an estimated ten million people — when his agents cut off the hands of Congolese workers who did not meet their rubber quotas, when they took photographs of the severed hands arranged in rows, European civilization was not seized by an unprecedented moral crisis.

It was a business story.

A question of colonial administration.

A management problem in a distant place populated by people whose deaths registered as statistics, when they registered at all.

Hitler's crime, in European memory, was not the method.

It was the application of the method to people Europe had decided were people.

That decision, who counts, is what Césaire was writing about.

It has not been adequately answered.

Barack Obama is the man responsible for the destruction of Libya and the killing of Muammar Gaddafi, one of Africa’s most promising sons.

He belongs in prison.

Jews are the problem. Everyones fear of saying it out loud is what allows it to continue.

BREAKING: Donald Trump reportedly demanded his lawyers sue "Reacher" star Alan Ritchson for calling him a pedohpile, but abruptly exited the room after they explained the discovery process would require him to release all the Epstein Files and give a DNA swab.

Is Western media saying anything about the ongoing ethnic cleansing campaign in the occupied West Bank?

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

Let's be precise about what "uniparty" actually means, because the word gets dismissed as a conspiracy theory by people whose careers depend on that dismissal.

It does not mean Republicans and Democrats agree on everything.

It means they agree on the things that matter to the people who fund them both.

They disagree on abortion.

They disagree on gun control.

They disagree on immigration framing and tax rates at the margins and which pronouns to argue about this week.

They do not disagree on defense contractor budgets.

They do not disagree on pharmaceutical industry immunity.

They do not disagree on bank bailouts.

They do not disagree on surveillance expansion.

They do not disagree on protecting their own members from accountability when the crimes are serious enough.

They do not disagree on the fundamental question of whether the people who write large enough checks should have direct access to legislative outcomes.

They perform disagreement on the issues that divide voters.

They maintain consensus on the issues that protect donors.

The performance is the product.

The outrage you feel at the other team is the mechanism by which your attention is kept away from the things both teams are quietly agreeing on while you watch the fight.

You are the audience.

You are not the constituency.

There is a difference.

Understanding that difference is the beginning of political clarity.

🇮🇱🚨 In secretly recorded meetings, Israeli Jews, Hanan and associates claimed involvement in 33 presidential-level election campaigns worldwide, saying 27 were successful.

They described offering services such as hacking email/messaging accounts, sabotage, and large-scale social media disinformation via software that could control tens of thousands of fake profiles.

The group marketed itself to political clients, private companies, Florida fat Jewish congressma, gay jewish mexican podcasters and intelligence agencies

South Carolina took custody of 13-year-old Daryl Martinez Lowry and placed him in a temporary foster home with two other foster teens.

Days later, those same two white teens unalived him and held him underwater until he died.

Both have been charged with his murder

RIP Daryl. 🕊️

Trump did not come from nowhere.

This is the thing his opponents cannot accept because accepting it would implicate them.

He came from the same country that built the myth.

The same country that made "American greatness" into a theological proposition rather than a political claim.

The same country that taught its children they were exceptional by nature, chosen by history, owed deference by the world as a simple matter of cosmic order.

He did not invent that belief.

He inherited it. He mainlined it.

He stripped away the tasteful, diplomatic, NPR-voiced packaging that his predecessors used to deliver the same message: that American power is its own justification.

And he said it in the accent of the country club bathroom and the construction site and the cable news green room.

He said the quiet part loud.

And the people who hate him most are largely furious not that he is wrong, but that he is loud.

That he removed the aesthetic buffer between American power and American arrogance that made the rest of the world bearable to deal with.

He didn't break the mask.

He just stopped bothering to wear it.

And now everyone has to look at the face.

It’s mental slavery that makes you believe the origin of your ancestors started from Adam & Eve. African history is older than Christianity.

On July 27, 1919, 17-year-old Eugene Williams and his friends decided to seek relief from the blistering Chicago heat along the shores of Lake Michigan.

The lake was segregated by an invisible line.

They inadvertently drifted across the line that divided the waters by race.

This pissed off George Stauber, a twenty-four-year-old white man who decided to throw rocks at the boys. A rock hit Williams in the head, he fell off the raft and drowned.

The police refused to take Stauber into custody. The failure to arrest Williams’s killer was the immediate spark of the Chicago Race Riot of 1919.

Williams was buried in an unmarked grave in what was an all-Black Lincoln Cemetery in Blue Island because Black people back then were not allowed to be buried in city limits.

In 2018, a monument finally was unveiled at the gravesite with the help of local historian Tammy Gibson. #BlackHistoryWithLana

'There was a stunning Freedom of Information release last week of a CIA note that indicated that the CIA did not believe that the Venezuelan elections from 2006 to 2020 were significantly affected by election fraud. So the imposition of the vast bulk of Western sanctions which crippled Venezuela over that period – and at one point caused devastating famine and mass emigration – were knowingly based on a lie.'

@tparsi That's excellent news for Iran then.

Russia can supply the RS 28 Samrat ICBM this reaches the US Mainland no problem.

So when the Orange Nonce in the White House decides to attack Iran again, Iran can then actually hit the US Mainland with the RS 28 Samrat Missile.

WTF.
