The Eternal Price of Silence

Can't cheer for heroines of individualism
who won't choose which side they are on
Hope the fash don't love me
when I'm dead and gone.

Canada stand up to Trump

US imperialism writ large. One of the biggest sticking factor is reported US attempts to weaken protections for French in a multi lingual country.

Go Canada

#Fascism is inherently anti cultural and the #Chinese government is no exception.

#European fascism, #imperialism and #colonisation did the same thing - even to other #Europeans.

This is also why I reject the idea of #white culture, because there is no white culture. It's a broad generalisation designed to promote cultural suicide.

I am asking for your help because of circumstances beyond my control, a life we are not to blame for. All I need is for you to listen to me as a mother helpless in the face of her three children's needs. Please understand me with compassion and do what you can: share, donate even a little, quote, or post a link. Help is our lifeline during this difficult time. Thank you, and I am grateful to everyone who stands with me.

The victory was a Pyrrhic victory; the celebration, a fatal arrogance.

In his brilliant essay ‘The Inevitability of Collapse in the Age of Financialisation’ https://substack.com/home/post/p-208778337, Ryan Perkins describes how this world, which has now dominated the Earth for 500 years, is coming to an end. The ‘end of history’ proclaimed by Francis Fukuyama after 1989 was portrayed as a victory for colonial liberalism. Yet the victory was a Pyrrhic one, and the celebration a fatal arrogance.

Had one read Marx, one could and should have known this. Financial capitalism only functions as long as there is something left to conquer, as long as there is an ‘outside’, as long as colonisation is possible. With the end of the Cold War, the circle was complete. There is no longer an ‘outside’. This triggered neoliberal self-cannibalisation in the West, the comical culmination of which is the first trillionaire, Elon Musk. His trillion is a bet on a future that will not and cannot exist.

On the other hand, there is the rise of China. In China, you see, people read Karl Marx. My first question to Deepseek (after I’d installed it locally on my laptop) was: ‘Isn’t it the case that whoever owns the means of production also holds the power?’ (one of the core theses in Marx’s *Capital*) – Deepseek replied, in essence: ‘I don’t need to worry. The Chinese are nice people.’
As nice as people tend to be.

From this perspective, the end of the world seems inevitable. The New World is already in sight … the Old World continues to pave its way with corpses. Cruel and helpless …

German authorities allege that Ukrainian scuba diver Volodymyr Zhuravlev was involved in the Nord Stream explosions.

In 2024, Zhuravlev evaded arrest in #Poland and fled back to #Ukraine. Last year, a Polish court refused to enforce the European arrest warrant issued by #Germany against him, ruling that German authorities had no jurisdiction and that the Nord Stream destruction could be viewed as a justified act by Ukraine in a defensive war. Poland has long opposed the Nord Stream projects.

His Polish defence lawyer, Tymoteusz Paprocki, said if a Croatian court hears this case, it would amount to a ruling on something already decided in Poland, another member state of the European Union, The Guardian reported on Thursday.

US Treasury Secretary on Iran: We will impose the toughest sanctions in history, and this policy will work.

- In Venezuela, when we imposed the blockade, it worked; it is now working in Cuba as well, and it will work in Iran too.

Think again, please.

My Dad was a high-ranking officer in the Indian government. So I have some insight into where USAID money went.

1. Most of it was kicked back to the US politicians who arranged it.

2. Some of it went to Indian politicians who signed the delivery receipts.

3. Part of it went into making slick commercials, featuring brown children dancing happily around empty boxes labeled USAID.

4. A tiny fraction went to the poor Indian people it was supposed to help.

Don't forget, there are hungry and homeless children in America. USAID was a huge scam that spent public money to lull the middle class into feel-good complacency, into looking away from their poor neighbors, by soothing their malaise. #USAID allowed American #capitalism to make inroads into the third world, corrupting local government to extract natural resources and exploit cheap labor.

If you are really concerned about hungry children, do something locally, instead of letting corrupt politicians steal public money.

The #homeless people in your neighborhood can't vote, because of systemic hurdles that prevent them from getting their share. If could vote, they would scream "GIMME EAT!" , rather than enable American #imperialism.

Libraries hold a special place in my heart, for reasons both intellectual and sentimental.

Librarians are guardians of knowledge, champions of freedom, and friends of the people. They are community members, dedicated to helping connect poor people with relevant information, so they can improve their minds, educate themselves, and access job resources.

After I became a #whistleblower in 2023, and was made #homeless , this notion was challenged.

Librarians would block my access, call the police, and have me arrested. If you find this hard to believe, please see my whistleblower website. The PDF linked, has an appendix giving the “receipts” ( documents to corroborate my account ).

http://whistleblower.lovestoblog.com/

I had applied to be a board member of the libraries in Hawai’i after attending their meetings, and saw some corruption there.

Scroll to the bottom of this page, and see the photo of the board members. How many native Hawai’ian faces do you see? Any Japanese or brown folks?

https://folkhawaii.com/about-us/

Their former Director of Membership, Bobby Gebbia, lied in court, before the judge and cameras, saying I was a board member, though I was not granted a membership.

In Hawai’i, librarians appear to be part of the occupying forces, whitewashing colonialism, insidiously taking over and erasing the true history of Hawai’i, which I heard from talking to local old timers.

250 years ago, Hawai’i had not heard of Jesus, and had its own deities, ( Goddess Pele, the creator, Kaneloa, etc. )
Then Captain James Cook invaded, and 90% of the natives were wiped out.

Then Samson Dole attacked with soldiers, threw out the natives, turned their land into plantations, and turned the natives into day laborers on the plantation, on their own land.

Contrary to popular belief, Hawai’i is not a part of the USA, but a belligerently occupied territory,

1887-1897: Hawaiʻi Rebelled against the USA.

Hawaiʻian people did not choose to be part of the USA.
King David Kalākaua was forced to sign what is called the "Bayonet Constitution". Queen Liliuokalani asserted that Kalākaua's life was threatened: "He signed that constitution under absolute compulsion."

https://youtu.be/j8DxdibHibU

Now Hawai’i is full of churches, their own gods are vanishing from memory, thanks to the “librarians”. There’s poverty, a drug epidemic, and seething discontent on the streets. Hawai’ian people are heavily overpoliced, thrown into jail without cause, and denied #justice in the #courts of the occupiers ( #USA ).

All this is hidden from the casual tourist, content to visit a golf course on the sacred land, that has been bulldozed, and be served drinks by little brown people ( usually from the Marshall Islands, Hawai’i locals have mostly left for minimum wage jobs in mainland America ).

Billionaires, like Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Ellison, Jeff Bezos, and Oprah Winfrey, “own” huge chunks of the land.

Chinese billionaire, Eva Liu, has controlled the Punalu’u Black Sand beach, with a sweetheart deal ( $1 ), and is proposing erasing this natural landmark, spawning site of the endangered Saddleback Turtles, and building resorts there, in the name of “development”.

In 2022, the Hawai’ian people had a setback in court.
( Hawaiian Kingdom v. #Biden ; December 14, 2022 )

Librarians have been instrumental, in manipulating minds, and pushing through these insidious #imperialist agendas, and disenfranchising and displacing the local people.
