You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either a socialist or black, but by getting the public to associate the leftists with antifa and blacks with BLM, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities.

I never listened to the podcast. Joined the old subreddit which then radicalised me and got me to read theory and understand radical politics so you’re right about people engaging without understanding the original context.
This map is really incomplete and misses out on some of the more interesting civilisations on the continent. For example the Ajuran Sultanate was the only hydraulic empire in Africa and exercised control over both nomadic and settled peoples by monopolising the water resources of the Shebelle and Jubba rivers. Through hydraulic engineering, it also constructed many of the limestone wells and cisterns for nomadic herders and a system of irrigation ditches known locally as Kelliyo fed directly from the Shebelle and Jubba rivers into the plantations where sorghum, maize, beans, grain and cotton were grown. It’s so interesting as the entire state managed to maintain adminstration and control over what would typically be decentralised tribal peoples by controlling the supply of water.

My little brother got like this but then his phone broke and he couldn’t convince our dad to get him a new one so he’d use my laptop a lot and he’d get my youtube recommendations. Watching stuff like second thought and kurzgesagt dewormed his brain. So if you can I’d say try watch some leftlib /sciencey stuff on his youtube account and maybe like and follow some leftist stuff on his tiktok. Get the algorithms to do the work for you
“lt was the black man’s vote that put the present administration in Washington, D.C. Your vote, your dumb vote, your ignorant vote, your wasted vote put in an administration in Washington, D.C., that has seen fit to pass every kind of legislation imaginable, saving you until last, then filibustering on top of that. And your and my leaders have the audacity to run around clapping their hands and talk about how much progress we’re making.” -Malcolm X, The Ballot or the Bullet A fucking mirror for whats happened with Biden today. Nothing ever fucking changes and in another 60 years we’ll be fighting the same issues with barely any reform and still getting fucked just as hard
How tf do you even have a monopoly on eggs? Did he own all the chickens too
