Dialectical Idealist

Why was Trump allowed to run for another term after January 6th?

I recently watched The Boy Who Harassed the Wind. It was unexpectedly refreshing to watch a movie without any white people in it. Western media is typically made with whiteness in mind: either white people are the main characters or there has to be some white self-insert character to convey how the story of POC relates to whiteness.

From the expectation of white people being the default, the red hat in this post isn’t so contradictory. And I’m sure a lot of people think this way.

Good article. The language we use is important.

Americans think they know about Tienanmen Square 1989 while themselves living in a police state / surveillance state.

No one talks about the Philadelphia police bombing (yes, a literal bombing) of a Black residential neighborhood in 1985.

No one talks about the police brutality against peaceful anti-Vietnam war groups in the 1960s/70s. Veterans who were drafted to fight an immoral war of aggression overseas were then beaten by the police for protesting that war. In 1970, the Ohio national guard opened fire on college students protesting at Kent State.

Eric Garner, Tamir Rice (12 years old), Daniel Shaver, Philando Castile, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, Renee Good, Alex Pretti and far, far too many people have been murdered on camera. Millions around the world protested the routine extrajudicial killings of unarmed Americans. But police killings increased every year during the Biden administration and Trump continues to throw people in the back of unmarked vans.

Americans judge the PRC (and every socialist country) by their own retelling of its worst blunder in history; Americans judge the US by it’s latest controversy while forgetting everything else.

Lack of support for Win10. Also, I’m a contrarian who doesn’t want to be beholden to the whims of a multinational corporation.

What about the U.K.?
