no argument
i would say though that humanity is extremely tribal
in many respects the outlet of #sports competitions between nations serves as a harmless release valve for what otherwise would be bloodshed and #war
i live in western new york
the indigenous people here have a sport: #lacrosse
their name for lacrosse is "little brother of war"
because the #Haudenosaunee (aka #Iroquois) recognize sports competitions relieve animosities that would otherwise result in real war

The Fentanyl + urine exchange that Alex Karp and Nick Zamiska had on stage last year wasn't reported on as widely as it should have been.
"Well, I love the idea of getting a drone
and having light #fentanyl laced urine spraying on [financial] analysts who tried to screw us."Alex Karp tweaks like a meth tweaker, and after seeing this vid, you will probably agree that just maybe the #Venezuela thing isn't about oil after all but instead about his personal addiction to cocaine.
Alex Karp is the CEO of Palantir, a company of fragile and emasculated tech bros who can barely read or write that has over only the last year exploded to a market cap larger than #Netflix, #Chevron, Procter and Gamble, Micron, and Intel -- companies with hundreds of billions of dollars more in actual revenue, assets, PP&E, business plans.... Palantir's irrational and false market cap is one of the biggest mysteries in #DataScience. Palantir is currently under the infamous Cramer Curse, so don't worry too much about the mystery lasting much longer.
So Karp -- whose future "behind bars" of that cushy Federal Prison System is all but guaranteed for that illegal [bid rigging] -- rigged bids on the shrunken US government sinkhole burdened with 39 trillion dollars in debt, so don't worry about this company lasting.
Naw, this isn't only about racial profiling, the ugly whiteness behind ImmigrationOS, or Karp's sick and twisted mind that wants to spray fentanyl and urine on people who are better at math than he'll ever be.
It's time society disregard the fragile feelings of those emasculated pimple-faced teens walking around Palantir's Palo Alto campus. According to #GNCA -- Gamer Nexus Consumer #Advocacy, whose main YouTube guy is probably making a huge mistake in agreeing to go to Palantir's office to "interview" these batshit crazies -- Palantir will fail at its attempt to become a "lifestyle brand". Not to mention the copyright infrigement JRR Tolkien's estate can and should sue for.
What it all boils down to is this: Israel is two (and only two) companies that have the most overpaid CEOs in America: Meta and Palantir. Those fragile, friendless, rejected by women everywhere losers are most invested in concentration camps and bloodbath both in Palestine and the US.
It's not the government, folks. The government framework stolen from #Iroquois #Confederacy explicitly punishes fascistic behavior. The vets need not fret once they realize this (and more are waking up every day)
Destroying two and only two corporations will minimize civilian casualties and ensure America's diverse citizenry (which I do love) will thrive.
Once we get rid of Meta Platforms, Inc. and Palantir, whose CEOs are paralyzed by the need to appear "winning" when they are actual LOSERS?
LEARN THE FACTS AND STOP TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM WITH THE PROBLEM.
So what is the solution? The Iroquiois Confederacy will need back its all-women Supreme Court, as well, for optimal solution.

An enemy Bigfoot was captured, killed and then scalped by Iroquois warriors in 1786 — and the grisly trophy has just resurfaced after more than 200 years! #bigfoot #iroquois #weeklyworldnews

A cool local news story from #WesternNY for you:
"#Rochester Knighthawks purchased by #Seneca Nation"
So what?
The #lacrosse team was in danger of being shut down
The #Haudenosaunee aka #Iroquois, including the Seneca, invented lacrosse
They called lacrosse "little brother of war" because games were a diplomatic way to resolve disputes without all out war
"Lacrosse is part of our culture and Rochester is part of our ancestral home"

The Role of Women in #Iroquois Society
May 26, 2024
Learn about the #matrilineal structure and the influential roles women play in governance and daily life.
"Women in Iroquois society held significant power and influence, a reflection of the matrilineal structure of their clans. This matrilineal system meant that lineage and inheritance were passed down through the mother’s line, which was relatively unique among Native American cultures.
Political Influence
"Iroquois women had a decisive role in the governance of their communities. #ClanMothers, the eldest women in the clan, had the authority to nominate and depose the male leaders, or #sachems, who represented their clans in the Grand Council. These women were highly respected and played a key role in ensuring that the leaders acted in the best interests of the people."

Hi Ruth,
I hope this message finds you well, and happy holidays to you. I'm reaching out on behalf of Extinction Rebellion (XR), a global movement known for its creative, non-violent protests that have helped compel legislation, push governments to act, and shift public discourse on the climate and ecological crisis.
As we determine our priorities for 2025, we’ve identified concerns regarding the proposed expansion project in Brookfield. Specifically, our research team noted that the Environmental Sensitivities and Enhancements section of your overview document focuses solely on site-specific impacts. Notably absent are any discussions of the downstream effects of transporting an additional 125 MMcf of methane gas daily.
We believe the public deserves transparency about the broader implications of this project. For instance, the expansion would be responsible for emissions equivalent to 18,150 internal combustion engine vehicles driven for one year and carry over $15 million in climate-related social costs annually.
How do you plan to inform the community about these critical downstream impacts? Would it not be in the public’s interest to present a comprehensive view of the project’s environmental and social consequences?
We look forward to your response.
With love and rage,
XR_Fairfield

The Haudenosaunee Nationals men's team, playing at the 2022 World Games, where they finished 5th. They are currently ranked third in the larger world of Lacrosse, a game that the nations of the Haudenosaunee invented nearly a thousand years ago. It is the oldest organized sport still played in North America.

@Threadbane @Remittancegirl @genewitch @zenkat @JuliusGoat
it is amazing isn't it? the #haudenosaunee / #iroquois deserve more recognition in how they helped shape the #constitution of the #USA
but unfortunately #american #education denigrates and deemphasizes contributions to the formation of the usa from #women, #black people, #native americans, etc, and elevates only white men
and me, like you, only learn these things later in life
we must change that
-
@Threadbane @Remittancegirl @genewitch @zenkat @JuliusGoat
read the link
the founders absolutely knew about the #haudenosaunee's political structure
and it's talking about a 1987 resolution by the us govt to specifically recognize the haudenosaunee / #iroquois for their contributions to the formation of our constitution
-
@Threadbane @Remittancegirl @genewitch @zenkat @JuliusGoat
one thing at a time
the senate was a compromise between big states and small states to achieve our union
and while i agree with you in principle, in practice, it will piss off a lot of states and might not be achievable without serious problems, including secession
interesting footnote:
it was inspired by the #haudenosaunee, aka the #iroquois, which had a similar robust system to achieve political balance

According to Iroquois folklore, Gandayah are benevolent but invisible nature spirits. Due to their unseen nature, they were said to announce their presence with the sound of drumming, which is why they were also referred to as Drum Dancers. #MythologyMonday

The #Tonawanda #Seneca Nation’s Fight to Protect the #BigWoods and stop STAMP
By Margaret Wooster (WNY Environmental Alliance) with Sarah Howard (Neighbors of the Onondaga Nation + Allies of the Tonawanda Seneca Nation) June 16, 2023
"One of Western #NewYork’s greatest treasures is a 20,000-acre #wetland-#grassland complex located mainly in the Town of Alabama, and locally known as 'Alabama Swamp.' It is also known as the Sixth Great Lake, a glacial lake now largely underground but surfacing in the plentiful streams and pools that make this watery landscape essential to the many reptiles, amphibians, mammals and birds who live or pass through, especially during spring migration.
"This area is also home to the Tonawanda Seneca Nation, a federally recognized Nation and part of the #HaudenosauneeConfederacy. The extraordinary #biodiversity of this area is in large part a testament to their ongoing #stewardship and reciprocal relationship with the more-than-human beings who also call this place home.
"But now, this place, and the Tonawanda Seneca Nation itself, faces an existential threat to their well-being. The #GeneseeCounty Economic Development Center (#GCEDC) has purchased 1,260 acres of habitat and farmland to build a Science and Technology Advanced Manufacturing Park (#STAMP) adjacent to the Nation’s territory. The site is also located within a few miles of multiple state and federally protected areas, including the #Iroquois National #Wildlife Refuge and the John White Wildlife Management Area.
"The STAMP plan capitalizes on federal and state subsidies for #microchip fabrication. To date, however, its only tenant is Plug Power, a #HydrogenFuelCell manufacturer whose product will have to be trucked many miles to market, undermining its justification as 'green power.'
"Two other possible developers – semiconductor producer #EdwardsVacuum and the warehouse developer #ScannellProject – would pave or build over the site’s northern 600-plus acres and bring an extra 140 #cars and #diesel trucks per hour up the narrow country road that leads to the refuge and through the Nation.
"However, the Tonawanda Seneca Nation and their allies, including other local residents and numerous environmental organizations, are fighting back against this industrial development. In February [2023], the GCEDC applied for a 'Full Campus Incidental Take Permit' that would allow them to remove habitat for #endangered and threatened #wildlife species known to occupy the site, including the #ShortEaredOwl and the #NorthernHarrierHawk. In response to the hundreds of letters it received from the public about this permit, the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) required the GCEDC to hold a public hearing, which took place on May 11 in the town of Basom.
"More than 185 people attended the hearing. All 49 who spoke were opposed to the permit and the majority expressed opposition to the entire STAMP project. Speaking in opposition were numerous members of the Tonawanda Seneca Nation, including titleholders, as well as allies from groups including the Buffalo Niagara #Waterkeeper, #SierraClub, #SaveOntarioShores, SUNY ESF, University of Rochester, Western New York Environmental Alliance and the #CleanAirCoalition of Western New York. In the words of Tonawanda Seneca Nation Sub-Chief Scott Logan (Bear Clan), 'If this permit were to be granted, it would be an immense injustice to #MotherEarth. And as a #Haudenosaunee person, and all the Haudenosaunee People in here, that is our birthright. It is our, what we are here for, is to protect the earth. And the STAMP Project goes a hundred percent against what we are — what we’re all about.'
"The STAMP site is located immediately adjacent to the Nation’s present-day reservation boundaries. Indeed, the most intensive manufacturing will be located along the project’s border with the Nation. However, as their Council of Chiefs has repeatedly stated in public comment letters and letters to agencies responsible for granting permits sought by the developers, the project’s approval process has continuously and egregiously undermined the Nation’s #sovereignty. In violation of their status as a federally recognized #TribalNation, the Tonawanda Band of Seneca’s Council of Chiefs – their traditional governance structure – has not been afforded a robust consultation process in decision-making about the project. Instead, opportunities for consultation have been perfunctory at best, and have focused almost exclusively on mitigation.
"In their official letter to the NYDEC regarding the proposed Part 182 Take Permit (mentioned above), the Nation’s Council of Chiefs wrote that, 'The Tonawanda Seneca Nation opposes this habitat destruction and would directly be impacted by it. The permit would allow for unmitigated incidental take on Nation lands when, inevitably, increased human presence, noise, excavation, light and traffic would disturb these species and turn them away… We do not want our Territory, people or future generations to be burdened by the negative impacts of these projects. This is a human rights issue for the Tonawanda Seneca Nation and the Haudenosaunee, who would bear a disproportionate burden from the industrialization of the land at STAMP.'
"The Council of Chiefs has demanded that a supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) be carried out to assess the possible impacts on the Nation, its culture and its environment; to date there has been no such study and the 2012 STAMP EIS (which did not analyze impacts on the nation) is badly outdated."

#NativeTraditionalUses of #BitterDock :
#Indigenous #Chippewa used an infusion of roots as dermatological aid to treat skin problems. #Delaware & #Oklahoma #NativePeoples used infusion of roots as blood purifier & treating jaundice. #Iroquois made compound decoction of roots & used it for blood disorders & also used it as a contraceptive. Decoction of roots was given to children to treat whooping cough.

Thanks @urbanmicrofarmer, great to see this happening
I'd love to see more #rematriation of culture and repatriation of lands for the #Oneida Nation and others back here in New York. Perhaps a topic of future posts...
From your avatar I assume you have an interest in indigenous corn... Dr. Jane Mt. Pleasant (#Tuscarora), who I mention in my post, wrote this freely accessible book on #Iroquois Corn (made available through my collection building efforts while at Cornell):

Lots of podcasts out there. This looks like a great initiative, esp for anyone living in Upstate NY on traditional #Haudenosaunee #Iroquois lands. “The Land You’re On: Acknowledging the Haudenosaunee investigates the original story of our area, insights on Onondaga ways of life, policies that changed history, and aspects of the culture of the native people who originally called it home.” https://www.waer.org/podcast/the-land-youre-on #HistoricalDialogue
