"Imperialism has laid its body over the world, the head in Eastern Asia, the heart in the Middle East, its arteries reaching Africa and Latin America. Wherever you strike it, you damage it, and you serve the World Revolution."

beau_dechocolat Why is everyone forgetting that millions of people died from covid??? Why do people talk as if that did not happen? • decolonize__ covid continues to disable and kill millions and has been long forgotten in realtime. covid denialism, ableism, toxic individualism, anti-intellectualism/anti-science, etc. are all factors as to why the masses refuse to address this ongoing reality.
covid forgetters and the post pandemic simulation take many shapes…
4/18/22 via @FredTJoseph Folks are clapping at pilots announcing they can take their masks off, as if they've been oppressed by wearing a mask on a plane to try and keep themselves and their neighbors safe during a global pandemic. Our chances with things like climate change feel very bleak right now.
the level of covid denialism/anti-science is completely mainstream and has been entirely embraced by the masses throughout the political spectrum. shit looks grim to no end.

anyone got 100k they can spare? need to pay rent and buy groceries. wtf just bought $35 of NOTHING.
fuck a special app, covid conscious cutie, can we just match right here, right now rather than setting up yet another account/profile to manage?!
a disability justice praxis that says that wearing a mask is optional when the individual is able to in public or otherwise shared air space has internalized/lateral ableism baked into it. and therefore isn’t disability justice.
no damn doubt, my brother!
Let's both keep advocating being mindful to others in our community!

i miss the days of early 2000s couchsurfing™ before air b&b and otherwise compromised it! what would be dope is a covid safer approach to it where covid conscious folks didn’t host folks in their homes, but either had land or a driveway for car or tent camping…

covid is by far the •cis male virus to ever exist when you consider how unaccountable it is for the harm its done on society & certainly covid itself isn't in the business of shirking responsibility for the damage inflicted, instead the masses blame other viruses/ ailments. • Visibility limited: this Post may violate X's rules against Hateful Conduct.
