Who's advocating for it's erasure? Was taking down Confederate monuments an erasure of their history?

Republicans, always thinking about the children. In the creepiest ways possible.

Oh Canada!

Don't feel too bad. As someone who was born into the tribe. Officially on tribal rolls. Received a settlement from the early '80s for treaties broken against our people over 100 years before. Attended a number of tribal cultural events as we tried to recover our heritage. Including my own naming ceremony. It didn't actually strike me until my late teens early twenties just what my grandmother was talking about when she spoke of Indian School.

Fortunately hers was not one of the ones you hear reported about sometimes in the northern United States and canada. But run by a different nearby tribe of the Wyandot. It was still about indoctrination and cultural Erasure to an extent. Just not the explicit tones of mass murder.

Sometimes it's Society hiding the skeletons in its closet. Other times it's parents just wanting their children to have something better and not to be focused and bitter on things that can't be changed. We couldn't have known ourselves. But just because some things didn't be changed doesn't mean others couldn't and shouldn't. Such as people's awareness of these things. The General public school education version that I got in the seventies and eighties was quite whitewashed and sterilized. And even then it was pretty bad.

The Nazi scientists however I couldn't get behind. Not because of any sympathies with Soviet Russia or the like. Just an aversion to the state. The state will always do what is easy. Rarely what is right. We had no business generally mucking around in the Cold War as we did. At best only a pyrrhic victory like Korea. Generally losing everywhere else and only increasing the death and destruction. In the end. It was the Soviets that brought themselves down. Not us or Reagan.

I agree. But there are other ways of doing it.

3 things

• if you're a fan, watching on YouTube supports them. An unofficial peertube doesn't.
• if you're not a fan, why would you watch even if it was on peertube.
• they also run floatplane.

Even generally liked creators that have their own peertube. Like Veronica explains. I would be a bit more tempted to watch on YouTube unless I was supporting via patreon. I suppose the one middle ground on that would be regarding advertisements. I did try to watch some videos signed out on a system that was stock....... holy hell that did suck.

That's at least trinary right there. 4 if you count the paragraph afterward. But my apologies for trying to start discussion and get some engagement in what's generally a pretty dead community. I didn't realize you had an axe to grind. I will keep that in mind in the future.

It was valuable. The structure it was in wasn't. It should have been razed and not repurposed. For quite some time fascists had been making pilgrimage there to revel in the sight and sounds their hero enjoyed. And celebrate his accomplishments in the exhibition. The exhibition didn't deserve this. It was collateral damage for something overdue.

For this reason mara lago also needs to be razed ASAP as well. Nothing left there for fascists to return to. No tacky gold or grandure left. A simple brutalist monument and exhibition recounting his own narcissism, calisthenics and brutality.

With regard to the allies. The United States specifically. We've never had a healthy Reckoning with our past. They gave many Nazi scientists amnesty. And the fascist themselves were inspired by our own powerful racists and fascists. Who never felt repercussions who are why we are in the position we are in today.

That is indeed a SuperbOwl.

I mean the Republican speaker of the house is legitimately porn buddies with his son. We're so far out over the shark at this point I don't think it was out of place to imply that.

China hasn't dropped a bomb in fifty years.

Dropping a bomb is not a requirement for imperialism. Seriously go read the definition.

All by design. Its what imperialists do. It's what the US and Canada did to my people and family.

Whether or not you trust RFA as a source. This is all part of a larger thread being reported on in wider credible coverage. And not just them as a group. Its part of a self stated literal policy position on the part of China.

And as the saying goes. Believe victims/women. Whether the accusations are true or false. Tibet is the one most liable to suffer repercussions from them not China.

Also if the United States was really going to try to discredit china. Considering all the bigots and racists involved in our government. Who don't give a shit about such groups here let alone elsewhere. Our government which is guilty of the same thing here. The last thing that they would care about or do is try to create a narrative around something like this. It's really disgusting to see "groups" hand wave stories like this away claiming such things.

You do understand the person that I quoted that was basically implying that was you right?

In nearly 300 years of strife. I don't think the state ever dropped bombs on my people or ancestors. That doesn't make what they did not imperialism. And even then. Even if China isn't directly dropping the bombs. They're supplying Russia who is. The state by its absolute Monopoly on violence and overwhelming Force doesn't even need to fire a shot sometimes. Let alone drop a single bomb. But it's still imperialism all the same. And you're twisting into pretzels trying to defend it is pretty disgusting. Imperialist often see themselves as liberators or uplifting people. It's rarely true.

The state has always been the oppressor. And those who defended it tools.

In their defense I don't know that they've realized that they have gone outside of their echo chamber.

Yep, Everyone is always the hero in their own story. Regardless of whether or not they actually are.

Okay, but that's worse.

Yep, two wrongs don't make a right. But no stone or board related directly to the man and not his victims. Should have been left intact. The museum of course wasn't the issue and should be rebuilt. A nice new structure with no ties to the monster other than outlining and attacking him for his atrocities.

Similarly maralago should be burnt to the ground. And redeveloped into a memorial/public toilet. Where no little fascist will want to pilgrimage.

They defaulted some yes. But they can and have been disabled here.

In this case though it's pretty well justified. If they can reverse engineer proprietary hardware and software. To allow us to properly use the devices we own. And not just generating csam, slop porn, or propaganda. Godspeed.
