you're not an American-living-abroad. you're a migrant. an American migrant. same with the UK. fuck with that expat bullshit. you're a migrant.

@blogdiva@mastodon.social avatar

there is a reason i use MIGRANT, instead of the jingoistic immigrant.

humans have alway migrated. we are primates. most primates, even gorillas, would move around more freely if humans had not destroyed most of our habitats.

it's natural for humans to migrate.

colonialism + imperialism + capitalism + racism have destroyed much of our natural migratory patterns.

no, it’s not civilization or modernity that made us evolve into sedentary beings.

the cult of exploitation & genocide did that.

DIDN'T THE COURTS OR DoL RECENTLY SAY NDAs ARE ILLEGAL?

«I have seen the extremely restrictive off-boarding agreement that contains nondisclosure and non-disparagement provisions former OpenAI employees are subject to. It forbids them, for the rest of their lives, from criticizing their former employer. Even acknowledging that the NDA exists is a violation of it.»

ChatGPT can talk, but OpenAI employees sure can’t

APROPOS OF EVERYTHING
you know what's interesting about the Dorothea Lange @DorotheaLange pics of in the United States? since she focused on migrant workers and small farmers, many of these people owned cars and/or (mobile) houses.
https://mastodon.social/@DorotheaLange@mastodon.ozioso.online/112457564915633018

just a reminder that poverty is always relative to the amounts of wealth and resources hoarded by the oligarchy, not by whatever material possessions are owned by the poor.

i like following the @DorotheaLange bot because it reminds me to look into what LOC has about Puerto Rico's . today was reminded of PRERA
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puerto_Rico_Reconstruction_Administration#The_Puerto_Rico_Emergency_Relief_Administration_(PRERA)
and of Jack Delano's work in Puerto Rico which was, much like Lange's, to document La Isla's poverty.

here's a 1941 pic of sugar cane workers from Río Piedras. notice the woman's shirt. instead of flour sacks,

this is the second time this week, of a corruptocrat throwing their wife under the bus.

first it was Menéndez' lawyers during opening statements in his corruption case.

now it's ' resident sociopath, Samuel Alito:

«Alito told the Times, "I had no involvement whatsoever in the flying of the flag. It was briefly placed by Mrs. Alito..."»

QUESTION ABOUT
are all the malfunctioning airplanes only used for domestic flights? were all the malfunctioning planes deployed only for use inside of USA?

was wondering if, since other countries have their own plane inspection programs, why would other countries not catch any of the problems with those planes? and i reckoned that maybe it's because Boeing was selling those faulty planes to USA airlines only for domestic flights; by-passing inspections from other countries.

«We're approaching the moment, and perhaps it's already here, when the memory of the Holocaust won't stop the world from seeing Israel as it is. The moment when the historic crimes committed against our people will stop serving as our Iron Dome, protecting us from being held to account for crimes we are committing in the present against the nation with which we share the historical homeland.»

this exaplains Biden's miserable policy: the techbros, all of whom were funded by the MIC during all those years of growth without making money, have finally taken off the mask of "techno optimism" and are showing themselves for who they are. no wonder Gay Hitler's company was the main sponsor of this event.

«"Let me say this about Nadine: Nadine had financial concerns that she kept from Bob," said the defence attorney, Mr Weitzman.

They led separate lives, Mr Weitzman said, with Mr Menendez often focused on helping his constituents from his seat in Washington.»

so Menéndez is throwing his wife under the bus. his lawyers think jurors are stupid & paint him as a saint, victim of his moneygrubbing wife.

DO NOT WHITEMANSPLAIN TO ME POLITICS

go fucking put your body on the line and protest and fight the injustice of having to choose the bad politics of the fascist lite politician.

then go vote for the fascist lite politician and continue to protest him until we can have actual real democracy defending politicians.

FUCK YOU AND YOUR WHITE PRIVILEGE. i hope everything you take for granted is taken from you. EVERYTHING; because that's a day ending in y for the rest of us Black & Brown folks.

the guy who did this had the AUDACITY to not only whitemanplain to me politics, but takes out @mekkaokereke who was the OP of the post.

do you know why he took out Mekka? because it was not fair to Mekka to have to put up with his whitemansplaining why the Blacks should shut up or else.

misogynist, fascist bootlicking and anti-Black all in one whitemansplaining liberal package.

and they have the audacity to blame Black people for the death of American "democracy".

it blows my mind people do not get that they are being asked to protest the bad policies AND vote for the guy.

but that's the thing: that would be an inconvenience TO THEM. they do not want to do the heavy work of defending democracy. that should be for the people who they enjoy seeing as martyrs, BIPOC. not them. good heavens no, they have take care of their cuticles and underpay an immigrant to mow their lawn.

i hate white liberals and their thinly veiled bigotries.

RANDOM REMINDER
children of racists, fascists, transphobes, xenophobes, forced to perform acts of violence, are victims of child abuse.

YES, RAISING RACIST CHILDREN IS CHILD ABUSE. children groomed to hate are raised in violent environments.

so, IF YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT ABUSED CHILDREN, refrain from circulating videos of children involved in acts of violence; especially when they're egged on by their fascist elders.

thank you.

Is Trump ahead in the polls, because Biden is losing support amongst one of his key demographics: Black men? Or are the polls all a lie?

Trump ahead in polls?
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/13/us/politics/biden-trump-battleground-poll.html

Biden camp doesn't believe the polls?
https://www.axios.com/2024/05/14/biden-polls-denial-trump-2024-election

Either way, the most important thing to do, is to ignore, insult, argue with, and generally disrespect, Black men online! 🤡 Find a Black man, and yell "Trump is worse!" in his face as hard as you can! Swear at him, and threaten him with violence!

"If the "nice guy," suddenly calls the woman a stupid ****, and tells her "Chad is worse!" and "Have fun getting hit! You deserve what happens to you!" we see that he was never a nice guy.

Pretend that you do understand this, but that you don't understand why "Trump is worse!" is so ineffective.🤡"
