It has literally always been a lie.  These lies have killed millions of Americans over the years.  It has cost the US Trillions of dollars in lost efficiency and higher healthcare costs over the years.  It has helped drag down the life expectancy of the US, meaning, ultimately, that Americans have lost hundreds of millions of years from their lives.

It was always a lie.

Oklahoma PD doxxed a councilwoman and then somebody raped her neighbor in retaliation

Source

To sum it up, Officer Lauderback doxxed a councilwoman who got a budget passed that stripped the local PD nearly a million dollars. Two days a later, someone assaulted her neighbor mistaking her neighbor for her and violently raped the neighbor. And before you say, how do you know the rapist is mistaken? They live in a duplex so they have the same address. And the rapist told the victim that “maybe she will learn her lesson” before throwing her to the ground.

So yeah, the police are targeting politicians now.

U.S. court orders Dakota Access oil pipeline to be shut, emptied

A U.S. District Court on Monday ordered Energy Transfer LP to shut and empty the largest pipeline from the North Dakota shale oil fields within 30 days, in a big win for the Native American tribes who have fought the line's route across a crucial water supply.

JULY 6, 2020

“Today is a historic day for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and the many people who have supported us in the fight against the pipeline,” said Chairman Mike Faith of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. “This pipeline should have never been built here. We told them that from the beginning.”

ICE made a decision to order all international students whose universities are online to leave the country or risk facing immigration consequences and getting deported which essentially means that students will have to decide between leaving the US or risk their health. many countries don’t even have their borders open and some people may not even have places to go so please sign this petition which requests that international students get the option to finish their degrees and remain in the USA

[sammyblep]

this is an official whitehouse.gov petition - americans, PLEASE sign this and don't let our country's obsession with deportation ruin even more lives

Hi, It would be nice if you could reblog what is happening in Poland right now:

70% of Polish queer kids have suicidal thoughts and attempt suicides because of the hate they get, because of the support they are not given, because it is legal to say some city is a “LGBT-free zone”.  They dehumanize us, they mock us, they kill us. SPREAD THE WORD

Mark zuckerburg is suing native Hawaiians because he wants to build mansions on their land. Sign this petition (but don’t donate to change.org)

[psifever-deactivated20201216]

here’s a site where you can donate to native Hawaiians. let me know if this is the wrong organization or if there are better ones i can link.

[cuddledhormone]

If I have any locals following me, they’re asking us to try visit ‘Iolani Palace since they rely mostly on tourism and that’s been down since Covid.

There isn’t a direct donation page for it, but there’s links you can donate to on the page that will support ‘Iolani Palace.

https://www.iolanipalace.org/donations-membership/support-iolani-palace/

(The 3rd link isn’t working, but just go here )

Another really good program is Kupu, which provides hands on training in environmental education and learning Hawaiian culture for Hawaiian youth, amongst taking care of the community. (Not just Hawaiian youth, but many of the youth in the program are Hawaiian and it’s a very good program which I’ll stand by.)

You can donate here

Those are all that I have off the top of my head.

Okay so I just got off the phone with them. I talked to a trans girl named Aurora & she was super helpful! She gave me a few doctors to talk to & encouraged me to seek therapy instead of just rushing to get my pills. She literally found a trans friendly therapist in my town & I would definitely recommend giving them a call!

If anti-maskers existed during WWII

[sixfrigates]

Okay, here’s the thing though. It isn’t a question of if. They existed and this is exactly what they did.

After the United States entered World War II at the end of 1941 and Germany subsequently declared war upon it, Great Britain recommended several steps the United States should take in order to safeguard their ships from Nazi u-boats. Recommendations included sailing ships in convoy (preferably with escort, but records proved ships in convoy without escort were still safer than ships sailing alone), if a ship had to sail on its own, it should avoid known navigation routes and markers, and towns and cities along the East Coast should adhere to strict blackouts at night. These recommendations came from the previous two years of experience in which u-boats absolutely ran wild in the North Atlantic and North Sea, obliterating British shipping. This period of time was referred to by Nazi u-boat captains as “The First Happy Time”. 

Despite British warnings, the United States was slow to follow them and impose restrictions. Ships continued to sail along marked navigation routes and run standard navigation lights at night. Boardwalk communities along the coast were only requested they turn off their lights at night and the cities weren’t even asked that because they didn’t want to offend the tourism, recreation, and business sectors. 

Blacking out coastal communities would have made it infinitely harder for Nazi submarines to find and sink targets. A ship running with no lights is still visible against the backdrop of a lit city.

Conversely, a dark ship running against a dark coast is virtually invisible.

But because citizens living on the coast refused to adhere to wartime suggestions for amenity reasons, merchant ships sailing up and down the East Coast became sitting ducks of u-boats. The US government did not begin strictly enforcing blackouts until roughly August 1942. By then, the Nazis had been given 8 months to run rampant along American shores. This time period was referred to by u-boat captains as “The Second Happy Time” or “American Shooting Season”. 

By August, Nazi u-boats had sunk 609 merchant vessels, totaling 3.1 million tons and costing thousands of lives, mostly of merchant mariners performing their essential jobs. 

By comparison, only 22 u-boats were sunk.

While the failure of coastal blackouts were not the sole reason the Nazis had such success during this time period (the Navy was slow to implement convoys and remove notable aids to navigation along the coast), I do not think it can be argued they did not contribute significantly to such great loss of American lives.
