    Let's just make it a rule because self government and democracy.

    No one is responsible FOR something, unless they are responsible TO someone.

    Billionairism is a cancer murdering human society. Just as rich always has, but now its metastasizing billionairism.

    Nothing to buy in their price range except governments.

    The world isnt just resisting the Billionaire World Coup (its not just in the United States) its building the new world.

    Trump is the boil that proved our illness.

    El mundo no sólo se resiste a la Coup Mundial Billionaire (no es sólo en los Estados Unidos) su construcción del nuevo mundo.

    Trump es el foliculitis que demostró nuestra enfermedad.

  3. A quotation from Lincoln

    Near eighty years ago we began by declaring that all men are created equal; but now from that beginning we have run down to the other declaration, that for some men to enslave others is a “sacred right of self-government.” These principles can not stand together. They are as opposite as God and mammon; and whoever holds to the one, must despise the other.

    Speech (1854-10-16), “In Reply to Senator Douglas,” Peoria, Illinois

  4. A quotation from Lincoln

    What I do say is that no man is good enough to govern another man without that other’s consent. I say this is the leading principle, the sheet-anchor of American republicanism. […] According to our ancient faith, the just powers of governments are derived from the consent of the governed. Now the relation of master and slave is pro tanto a total violation of this principle. The master not only governs the slave without his consent, but he governs him by a set of rules altogether different from those which he prescribes for himself. Allow all the governed an equal voice in the government, and that, and that only, is self-government.

  5. Before the Trump Coup exposed billionaire plans for world fascism, Australian Labour was supposed to lose this election.

    Trump and Elon have awakened rhe world.

    As Lincoln said defeating the slavers, government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

    Shall not Perish.

    They are not done counting, this is a tidal wave, an electoral tsunami.

  6. @mpldr @yourautisticlife

    Billionaires are buying hate propaganda to eliminate democracy because we are on the verge of democracy everywhere. I could care less about the excuses.

    Similarly, the is no such thing as race, but there sure is a lot racism being used to create hate.

  7. "Autonomy" means something different in Spain (having certain powers) than in #Slovakia (a region has a plan for its future independence)

    This is due to Slovakia's history

    (Removed, see next post:"The country itself became autonomous before parting ways with Czechia")

    Why is this relevant? #Hungarians living in Southern Slovakia would like "autonomy" over the territories where they are a majority

    But they can't say "#autonomy", so they use the word "self-government" instead

    Organize

    Make lists of allies, friends and people needing allies, needing info, needing protection. Make meetings, make time.

    The top best political film for organizing, understanding SELF GOVERNMENT is the biopik _MILK_. TOP best almost only political film, the fact that its lgbt is great, but not the point.

    Self government, mutual respect are built. BUILT, need as much maintanance as your home. More. Its where we live.

    'Milk' is online

  9. Women’s Protection Units #YPJ are Kurdish-led all-female militia.
    To commemorate the 30th anniversary of the #Zapatista Uprising in Mexico, the YPJ sent a videotaped greeting.
    The #EZLN defends indigenous control over local resources, especially land.
    The video praises the EZLN for their progress in building a system of #selfGovernment, communal economy & freedom, and stressed the importance of people having control over their lives & organisational structures.

  10. This inspires questions also relevant for #Sápmi:

    Does favoring extractive industries over #selfgovernment make a person less #Indigenous?

    Does that principle apply only to those from outside the culture and community who claim Indigenous identity due to "blood" - or also to those raised within the culture and community?

    Does it ultimately mean that integrated people without Indigenous "blood" who stand up for Indigenous self-governance - are more part of the nation than returnees who don't?

  11. “(Canada’s) whole approach has been recognize first and verify later.”

    #FirstNations leaders told Canadian lawmakers that #Métis #selfgovernment #legislation will cause damage to First Nations' #rights for generations and will damage their relationship with #Canada too.

    First Nations say they haven’t been consulted on #BillC53 and, because it impacts their existing rights, it is necessary to #consult before the Bill is passed into #law.

  12. A second rally on Parliament Hill in #Ottawa heard from chiefs and #FirstNations scholars in #Ontario who vehemently object to the #federal #legislation #BillC53, which recognizes #selfgovernment for the #Métis Nations of #Ontario #Alberta and #Saskatchewan.

    At issue is six additional historic Métis communities the #MNO is claiming.

Contemplating the idea that in a few hundred or thousand of years the #future us may look on this time of #data #liberty that this period is implementing which may be compared to the ancient experiments with #democracy #republic and #selfgovernment which the #greek and #roman peoples did.

  18. This is the kind of moment I became a lawyer for. \o/ ♾️

    "If passed, the bill will open doors for ... treaty between the Métis Nations and the Government of Canada. The treaty will grant the Métis Nations greater autonomy and self-governance ... to establish social services and assume jurisdiction over critical matters such as citizenship, leadership selection and internal administration."

  19. Margaret Froh, president of the Métis Nation of Ontario, is celebrating legislation introduced June 21 in the House of Commons, despite the controversy swirling around it. 

    Bill C-53 will recognize Métis self-government, giving Canada the tools "to formally recognize our governance and that cradle for that ongoing nation-to-nation, government-to-government relationship,” Froh told Windspeaker.

  20. I've experienced more anti-Métis rhetoric and even racism lately than probably ever in my 45 years. Largely internally. Must mean we are doing something right.

    "The Métis Nation of Ontario is thrilled to announce the introduction of Bill C-53 ... a significant step forward in recognizing and honouring the rights of our vibrant Métis communities across the Nation." See:

  21. Allies in Canada, you can help us move toward self-government on select important issues such as a government to government relationship, elections, and Métis child and family services with just a few clicks and your name at: act.newmode.net/action/m%C3%A9
    Please note that this does not deal with land, harvesting or land-related rights. It will not have any impact on other Indigenous peoples or communities
    Thank you. Marci. Miigwetch.
