    But it’s no wonder- despite this long and painful #history of betrayal- that YOU still don’t know who we are. We know well that the #oppressed carry the memory of every wound, but the #oppressor forgets the scars it has inflicted."

  3. Between you and me, I think there should be an #anarchist #AI model that's the equivalent of an #AnarchistCookbook.

    In case of warfare, one must tip the balance in favor of the #people over #government by providing means to fight an #oppressor.

    The idea is that #FreeSoftware and #FreeAI have different purposes. One is a shield, the other a blade.

  7. If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the #oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.

  9. In every age it has been the #tyrant, the #oppressor and the #exploiter who has wrapped himself in the cloak of #patriotism, or #religion, or both to deceive and overawe the People.

  13. The biggest #oppressor of the black family is #Christianity. I never understood how anyone can worship a #god that ignored #slavery.

  17. ...generally, in oppressive, #colonial, #imperial and #genocidal systems, if you arent being suppressed for your stance with #humanity...you are still standing on the side of the #oppressor and your position poses them no threat...

  19. the main problem with planet of the apes is that is written with a #fascist mindset that assumes the oppressed desire the "revenge" to become the #oppressor of their oppressors.

    but thats just the fear of the fascist from the knowledge of the evils they have done.

    the oppressed just want to be free of oppression and live freely.

  21. Why would you feel bad for an #oppressor who #died? He wouldn’t feel bad if what #happened to him, happened to you.

    He died due to a #system he wanted to uphold 🤷‍♀️

  25. Being #neutral has been placed on this pedestal as peak maturity when #neutrality only even benefits the #oppressor.

    Being neutral has never helped the #victim. You just end up being a #coward watching #harmful shit play out.

  27. 4 days of hard work to get 8 million, and the first thing i do is to crash it into the ocean (like 5 seconds after this screenshot), realising it costs 10k to repair it(!).

    Wasn't as fast or as agile as i thought - and actually feels rather slow, but i heard it can be upgraded. #GTAEnhanced #Oppressor #GTAOnline

  29. I think we should be very suspicious of the #memes and posts calling for #blackfolks to "rest" to not showup and showout at #protests. We know that #divideandconquer is the oldest trick in the #oppressor playbook. #blacklivesmatter #BlackMastodon #TrumpLiesMatter #GeneralStrike

  31. "It is not the #oppressed who determine the means of #resistance, but the #oppressor."
    —Nelson Mandela

    #Resisters take action with clear & attainable objectives in mind. Ideally their objective is decisive (but it may also be shaping or sustaining). This goal motivates members; it also informs the structure of a movement, its strategy, & its tactics.

  32. I always hear the #oppressor say

    'When #youngling of #oppressed can be #proud of their #origin, why can't we?'

    Well, the answer is simple... Oppressed are proud of their #root because of what their #ancestors did, how they #survived, #fought and #raised them despite of everything #against them... While the ancestors of oppressors gave that pride away because of their #Criminal activities of taking advantage of their #status created by oppression.

  34. 1. Those who judge a demonstration by its most violent participants but do not judge a police force by its most violent enforcers, uses language of an oppressor.
    B. If you cast a #protest as violent w/o equally calling out violence from police, you are effectively an oppressor.
    III. Judging a largely #peaceful use of 1st amendment based on activities of a #minority who are #violent, while #denying the largely #violent presence of #police at that #protest, is #speaking as an #oppressor.

  36. We must always take sides. #Neutrality helps the #oppressor, never the #victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must – at that moment – become the center of the universe.
