I shovel poop and read about theory, imperialism, and religion.

I’m just finding out now about this reply restriction Bill Gates has set... are more people not concerned about his anti-humanity, extinction of diversity, and fascist ideology... Because he bakes a cake for W Buffet and throws nickels at those who he deems inferior?

#relempuvm y’all this book is 🔥🔥🔥

[Katie @karmsa555]

Capable of acting or fighting. I need your help #RelEmpUVM thinking through this. Am I way off? What am I missing? What do you guys think?

[Katie @karmsa555]

#RelEmpUVM In my ethics course today we started talking about violence as a mode of social change. Obviously I thought right to everything we have talked about. Lots of discussion was that violence isn’t productive for the cause and the people....

[Katie @karmsa555]

And a desire of wanting to see ourselves - as “normal Americans” wanting justice but not nationalistic - as above actions that are violent. People serve in the military wars that are not “ones own” but racial and political. We praise them yet separate ourself from being actors...

Does she want to break bread or is she conspiring to make it her prey tonight. #wheredidthemicego? #RelEmpUVM I made bread while reading your papers. I love it when we get to read each other’s stuff even though I feel about as naked as these loaves did before they were baked. ✌🏻

#RelEmpUVM after attending @eshurd talk on Friday, and now reading Do Muslim Women Need Saving, the myths of US promoting religious freedom, using a revival of religion to fix its dormancy, and how it can predict behavior are all relevant to the convictions held on Muslim women

[Katie @karmsa555]

@Eliana_J_Fox @Marg_Benn The “our border is sacred” is such a blatant statement of we are this way and we are unwilling to change. It defines the US in these terms without room for variance and makes it sacrilegious to dismantle that border. And the only way to remain sacred is in light of law #relempuvm

[Katie @karmsa555]

What do y’all think #relempuvm? I’m thinking about all these examples @syljohns unpacked. From buffalo soldiers, to MLK, to mass incarceration, to black power, to COINTELPRO, to what freedom actually means and to what extent the democratic empire continues to go to ensure it.

[Katie @karmsa555]

#relempuvm this is a relevant podcast to the reading we have just done on National Security tactics. Rebecca Gordon talks about her book on the normalizing of torture under the guise of national security and nationalism. https://t.co/uy4S3gCLly

[Katie @karmsa555]

In terms of us - who are categorized as the ones that are protected (rather than the democratic empire structure scaffolded by race and colonialism @syljohns) - she calls for a revived virtue ethic in spite of the complacency that the allegiance to the democratic empire creates.
