this saint Patrick's day, I want to remind you all, that many in Ireland were and are against the british invasion in the Malvinas Islands. So, just like us, I hope one day they can rid themselves of the british plague

since you people on this site love maps so much, here's one for you all

the distribution of the 814 confirmed clandestine detention and extermination centers during argentina's last military dictatorship backed and funded, of course, by uncle sam

[elbiotipo]

As some people pointed out on Twitter, if these centers only detained 37 people each, they would all account for the 30.000 disappeared, the estimate of people killed during the Proceso de Reorganización Nacional. As of 1978, a secret report by Chilean intelligence estimated the number of dissapeared to be around 22.000 people. The dictatorship lasted between 1976-1983. It is likely that the estimated figure of 30.000 is underestimated.

In Argentina, students, trade unionists, intellectuals, or just anyone who looked suspicious were taken from the street, tortured and executed. Tortures were of a inhumanity I hesitate to even describe. The dictatorship was especially cruel towards pregnant women, torturing them during birth and then stealing their children to be adopted by other families, sometimes the very families of their captors. This is why the organization of Madres de Plaza de Mayo, mothers who wanted to learn where their children were, eventually became Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo, looking for their grandchildren.

The military junta also led a disastrous economic program of neoliberalism to align with the interests of the United States, which left millions in poverty and the destruction of Argentina's industrial economy. There was also a perpetual, casual cruelty, with any politically active people regularly arrested and tortured, censorship and repression, and eventually the Malvinas War, where conscripts from the poorest parts of the country where sent to fight for their flag on the cold South Atlantic while the sons of the military leaders slept in their homes. The effects of the Proceso de Reorganización Nacional are still felt today all over Argentina's society, a society they tried to break and remake.

This was all done with the open support of the United States. Kissinger (may he rot in hell) encouraged Gerald Ford to support the dictatorship, a policy the next presidents continued as part of the wider Plan Cóndor of supporting right-wing dictatorships all over Latin America.

Nunca más.

The "tactics" of torture, forced disappearance, and clandestine warfare used by the Argentine military dictatorship of 1976-1983 were taught to the Argentine military by their French military "professors," who used them extensively in their miserable attempts to maintain their empire over Vietnam, Algeria and other countries. These techniques of state terror were first used in French colonial violence, and then were applied here, with the approval of Plan Cóndor supported by the United States. The same tortures that were inflicted on Vietnamese peasants and Algerian activists were also inflicted on Argentine students, the same cruelty that the military dictatorships used from Mexico to Chile was dictated as a method at the School of the Americas. In Argentina, 30.000 people were forcibly dissapeared, tortured, raped and killed, and countless others were brutally repressed with scars they, and our entire society, still bear today.

Here is an article (in Spanish) about it.

Imperialism is a never-ending fractal of cruelty.

[messygoku]

lo que le están haciendo a Cuba es igual de genocidio que en Palestina y todos los países afectados por el imperialismo yanki del orto.

y cualquier movimiento que haga estragos hundidos para "salvar" a Cuba con intervenciones para "resguardar la democracia y devolver el orden al país " es manufacturar consentimiento en Latinoamérica y el resto del mundo para que ese país empiece a hacer lo mismo que hizo durante las dictaduras. Antes era para "luchar contra el comunismo" hoy es "luchar contra el narcotráfico"

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Eat meat or don’t. I truly do not care. Do not pretend you are morally superior if you choose to care about animals more than people.

OMG ARGENTINA IS FULL OF GERMANS SEE THEY'RE ALL NAZIS OMGGGGGGG

meanwhile, the United States:

[elbiotipo]

The last time I posted this statistic someone got mad at me in the notes and told me "many of those Germans living in the US actually are Jews who escaped the Holocaust!!!"

Yes. Most Argentines with "German-sounding" surnames you'll meet are Jewish.

[elbiotipo]

Another one told me "well actually most German-Americans came way before the Nazis they have nothing to do with them". Indeed. Like most German Argentines.

"but you can't say all of those German-Americans are nazis that makes no sense" hmm, so are you telling me that politics are not actually inherited with your ethnicity and you can't just assume the politics and complexities of countries by looking at demographic statistics, and that reducing countries to racial groups is basically, racist? Fascinating, I think I see your point. Probably it was when I made it repeatedly.

Unpopular opinion but an adult still living at home with their birth family doesn’t owe you an explanation for why they’re living there. 

It could be an illness/disability they have that’s not fully visible. Maybe they want to be around to care for their aging parents. Maybe the rents in their area are so disgustingly, astronomically high that it really doesn’t make sense for them to move out. Maybe they just don’t trust strangers enough to move into shared accommodation. No matter what it is, it’s not your business.

or maybe they’re not american
