“I believe that the trade in human beings between Africa & America, which flourished between the Renaissance & the American Civil War, is the prime & effective cause of the contradictions in European civilization & the illogic in modern thought & the collapse of human culture.” DuBois

primera prueba para aderezo. vinagreta dulce de chocolate para echarsela encima a papaya y fresas. 3 cucharas de mantequilla de coco, 3 cucharaditas de cacao en polvo, 1 cucharadita de vinagre bálsamico, 3 cucharadas de miel, una pisca de sal, una pisca de canela.

"God has died" : meh reaction
"This could be the death of comedy" : calls to mobilize the whole of society.

It is never normal.
If anything, it was normalized.

This youtube channel is a very good resource for those seeking information about #Autism #ADHD and "Education, self care, and lifestyle for neurodivergent people".

Catherine Austin Fitts made the point that Mr Global makes decisions not out of greed but risk management. The risk they are most seeking to avoid is: the whole system that keeps them in power collapsing. As she described it, they profit out of the situations they put the world in, but greed is not what is shaping their decisions, but the fear of losing their control over humanity.

una triste historia: un espacio de construcción colectiva en abandono.
lo que no cuentan: la banda abandona el espacio después del desgaste de enfrentarse a micromachismos que se la viven comódos en dicho espacio.
la solución que promueven: más participación.
el resultado: nuevas personas le dan vida al espacio. algunos lo abandonan desgastados. los micromachos se quedan el espacio y todo el crédito de construir el espacio. incluyendo el mérito de haber sido confrontados por personas que señalon violencias y haber sobrevivido.

I just read a so called anticapitalist stance which made me angry. They consider sex work purely exploitative. It should be abolished. Also, "survivors" agree.

Those that talk about abolishing sex work brandish some sex worker testimonies (the survivors they invoke) like they were weapons. While religiously ignoring all the data and other testimonies that counter their points. It is not even necessary argue over data because all their logic is so trash.

The weird part, is that those that push for criminalizing sex work come from different contexts. There are christian right wingers and so called anti capitalists that agree that sex work clients should be persecuted. Some because it offend the family and God, others because they consider it unproductive and exploitative work.

en méxico la lucha contra "el comunismo" es una extensión de la guerra contra pueblos y trabajadores organizados, respaldada por el estado, la iglesia y empresarios. es parte de la intervención gringa. es parte del neocolonialismo.
encuentro lamentable que haya alianzas con esa atroz tradición, porque resulta oportuna para criticar al actual partido en el poder.

hay mucho marxista y comunista pendejo. es necesario señalarlos y ridiculizarlos.
y hay mucho anticomunista peor que pendejos. porque además de pendejos están organizados y en posiciones de poder.
criticar a los primeros sin aliarse con los segundos sería como básico si se creen de izquierda o revolucionarios o con mínima memoria histórica.

About #triggers and #TriggerWarnings
They are a disability issue and so are a social issue. They boil down to what type of relationships we hope to foster, which can add up to what type of society we choose to reproduce.
We may choose to perpetuate the social inertia, and default to making it a "your disability : your problem : your responsibility" issue.
Or we may choose to recognize the social model of disability. We may choose to take, collective or individual, responsibility for the choices we make that affect others. Choices that make content and places inaccessible or harmful to many. Choices that include or exclude, that enable and empower or discriminate against.

I believe it would be strategic to leave social ostracism alone for a while, and focus on governments and big corporations, which are capable of leaving people without citizenship and rights or access to financial services. Social media censorship denies access to audiences, and that impacts some trades more than others but there are workarounds. But loss of access to legal personhood or money can make anyone vulnerable fast.

People changing over how others reacted is actually just part of socialization but they will say it is abhorrent.
How privileged are some of these defenders of "being your true self"? Some have barely suffered negative consequences over the abusive ideas and behaviors they profess.
If their true self is a racist misogynist maybe they should try being someone else. Or maybe try changing?
But changing would mean turning their abuse off, but they cannot. They no longer know how to interact with others without imposing themselves over them. So they oppose being cancelled instead. They oppose people defending themselves from them.

Some people would benefit from shutting up. Their opinions are horrible and the fact that they do not realize it just makes it worse. Telling them to shut up is actually an act of grace.

Of course, "not self censoring" is wrapped in "against cancel culture" discourse. As in bullies demanding for their violent behavior to be considered part of normal interaction. Which it practically is many spaces. Which is why people are resisting it, which is why some bullies feel like they are being ostracized. Which is true in some cases, and often a good thing.

Is it "really important that people do not self censor"?
There are many examples of it being a desirable behavior, even unavoidable. Interacting respectfully with people sometimes demands it.
It sounds like some people demand being allowed to say whatever without fear of negative consequences. It sound like demanding that others do not set up minimum conditions for interacting, which is abusive in itself and sets the stage for future abuse.
