american leftists seem extremely focused on anti imperialism (good) but rarely- if at all- discuss decolonization in their own fucking country, despite acknowledging that it is a settler colonial state.

im serious about this though. as an urban indian, i definitely cant speak on this as much as a rez indian could. but i know from talking to rez friends i have and from what the american indian movement has screamed for over the years that we need land we can grow on, we need clean water, we need to allow the wildlife that once lived in this land to live here again (meaning you need to listen to us before building those high speed rails you all get so hard over).

you cant drool over the zapatistas while ignoring people in your own country who have a similar goal

a character using ‘they/them’ pronouns is not cue for you to ‘call them whatever pronoun you think suits them best :)’ its a cue for you to use ‘they/them’ pronoun you stupid motherfucker

So you know how you love me because you haven’t had a single meeting with anyone since I became your assistant? That’s because every time someone calls and requests a meeting with you, I always schedule it for March 31st.

In detention centers across California, hundreds of immigrants, fearing for their lives, are begging to be released before COVID-19 sweeps through. Never Again Bay Area understands the extreme urgency of this situation: we must release all detainees and close these concentration camps before they become death camps. We need to bring attention to this NOW so Governor Newsom uses his emergency powers and influence to get everyone out of ICE detention before it’s too late. It’s only a matter of time before someone working at the detention center exposes everyone inside.

Tomorrow, we are holding a COVID-safe car-only rally; a rally at the ICE office and Civic Center Plaza to call on public officials to protect immigrants from this virus, for their own safety and for public health.We will be driving slowly and repeatedly around the block with signs in our windows while we honk our horns. We need as many people as possible to show up and demand the governor makes the right choice.

WHAT: A car rally to call for the end of immigrant detention – we will be driving slowly and repeatedly around the block with signs in our windows while we honk our horns
WHEN TO MEET: Tuesday, March 31 @ 11:30 AM.
WHERE TO MEET: 50 Broadway, San Francisco (SP+ Parking).
EVENT LOCATION: ICE Field Office (630 Sansome Street) and Civic Center Plaza

Y’all have gotta bear in mind that while rent relief is absolutely important, so is mortgage relief. It’s not just a “what about the landlords?” thing; outside of the very largest cities, and especially in rural areas, it’s actually quite common for folks to own their primary residences even if they’re dirt poor – they just end up spending decades in crushing debt as a result. Like, “fuck the owning class” sounds good on paper, but not everybody who owns a house is functionally part of the owning class; a person with a shitty 1000-square-foot bungalow that hasn’t been renovated since 1977 and a thirty-year mortgage to show for it is not your enemy.

[ruffboijuliaburnsides]

I definitely think the thing we need to be arguing is we 100% need both rent and mortgage relief right now
