I live at the end of the world

[televisionenjoyer]

I genuinely can't believe so many famous people are falling for propaganda so easily and using their platform to spew hatred on a nation that already has so many racialized people trying to fight back the fascism machine.

Samuel Jackson saying people shouldn't support Argentina because we're "historically the most racist country in the world" is not only a disservice to the ALARMING AMOUNT OF YEARS OF SLAVERY AND SEGREGATION AGAINST BLACK PEOPLE IN HIS OWN DAMN COUNTRY AND THE CURRENT CONCENTRATION CAMPS DEDICATED TO LATINOAMERICAN PEOPLE ENTERING THE US but also does absolutely nothing to help those of us who have ever suffered racism inside Argentina.

It is not a light statement, it is largely unfounded, yet he has no problem using his platform to make such claims as did many internationally known celebrities.

Meanwhile the genocide that is currently going on in Palestine is evident and widely documented and yet many of these same people play dumb instead of using their platform to CONDEMN AN ACTUAL FUCKING GENOCIDE GOING ON RIGHT NOW. it's disgusting and extremely absurd.

Argentina se ha convertido en la excusa perfecta para odiar a un país del Sur Global pero sin sacarse las máscaras de "progre". Antes era la "dictadura de Venezuela" hasta que EEUU bombardeó ese país y secuestró a su presidente, antes era Irán hasta que EEUU e Israel empezaron a bombardear, antes los que defendían a Palestina lo hacían diciendo "pero condeno a Hamas". El feminismo, el antiracismo, el anticolonialismo, el antiimperialismo, todo ha sido cooptado para servir a los intereses de las potencias del Norte Global.

Y los que se tildan "progres" o "de izquierda" siempre fueron reaccionarios. Vieron cómo a muchos les encanta humanizar a la IA para luego deshumanizarla llamándole con todo tipo de slurs basados en slurs hacia personas racializadas? Su crítica no proviene de un lugar genuino si no de un deseo de poder usar esos slurs sin sentir culpa. Bueno, lo mismo pasa con países como Argentina, que se convierten en los perros a los que es válido maltratar con la excusa de que "ellos mordieron primero".

President Javier Milei has called on FIFA to ban the entry into stadiums of flags or shirts bearing references to the Islas Malvinas (because he's a disgusting puppet) so the Argentina Men's National Football Team did what they had to do 🩵🤍

"I am not saying I won't fight anymore, indeed. I am saying that I don't want war anymore. I want the end of the siege. You walk to the beach at sunset, and you see all these teenagers on the shore chatting and wondering what the world looks like across the sea. What life looks like. It's breaking. And should break everybody. I want them free."

My godmother was 11 when the coup happened: she recalls being in school in the centre of Santiago when suddenly she heard the roar of planes and a explosion so big the classroom windows cracked. The teacher looked grim and they were let out shortly after.

When she arrived home, her older brother was frantically going through all their books which had political propaganda in them, burning them as discretely as he could. "He looked like he was on the verge of a colapse, but smiled at me when he got home and asked me kindly to close all the curtains in the house".

She remembers the screams in the middle of the night- a couple of twins who were her neighbours and university students as well as their dad was taken. They never saw them again.

There are a lot of things she hasn't told me but I notice them anyway. She always hated September 19, when the military would stage a giant parade. She would stay home, with just a candle to accompany her, and I would stay at her side because I loved her and I didn't want her to be alone.

In October under the protests, she couldn't sleep- the army was out at all times and helicopters flew so low we were worried it would crash down the house. I stayed with her for a week - I would protest during the day and I'd come home with her looking pale and crying.

September 11 is a day of rememberance and pain. We will not forget what happened and we will fight for those of us who never came back.

Ni perdón ni olvido.

This is the future under Democrats.

[cuntess-carmilla]

This is the past, present and future under ANY American presidency you dumb fuck. That was the result of the US staging a coup against our democratically elected SOCIALIST president, Salvador Allende. The propaganda they had to burn in a hurry to stay safe was communist and socialist propaganda. The people who suffered horrific torture, political persecution, executions and forced disappearances, taught and endorsed by the US, were Chilean leftists (confirmed OR SUSPECTED), poor Chileans, and Indigenous Chileans. The minimum confirmed victims of Pinochet's dictatorship is of 40,000 people.

This is what the US has done, is currently doing and will continue to do not just in the global south and the east, but within its own fucking borders too, to American leftists (the red scare, anyone?), Black Americans, Indigenous Americans, and non-white immigrants on American soil. You, as a republican, love and support all of the pain op and I are describing here and WORSE. Don't you fucking dare use us like this.

And in case it wasn't clear; you're right! This IS the future under democrats! AND under republicans! They're both the same shit under a different name! They're both right-wing parties controlled by and for the most privileged Americans to support and expand the American empire, both with blood on their hands by the MILLIONS! They're both fascist genocidal parties!

You're such a self-centered piece of shit for taking the suffering of tens of thousands of real people and using it to further your stupid propaganda, as if republicans aren't DROOLING to continue to do this all over the world just as much as democrats are.

I get that you're spiritually incapable of seeing 3rd worlders as real multidimensional human beings with worth, emotions, lives and wants, but please keep that shit to yourself next time. We don't need to be reminded that in the eyes of people like you, we're nothing but little ants to step on like we don't matter. Much less when we're mourning the bloody results of exactly that. Shut the fuck up.

—salvador allende’s final speech, 9/11/73

this week marks the 47th anniversary of the US-backed overthrow of salvador allende. allende was the first latin american marxist to be elected president in a liberal democracy. under allende, universal healthcare, tuition-free education, minimum wage, worker safety protections, free school lunches for children, and other socialist programs were implemented. according to the national bureau of economic research, blue collar wages rose 56% in 1971.

after allende moved to nationalize chile’s US owned industries and align with socialist cuba, nixon (who’d already been carefully monitoring allende’s rise) gave direct orders to the CIA and the US state department to “put pressure” on allende’s government. while the US publicly worked to sabotage chile’s economy with trade restrictions and aid denial, the CIA secretly collaborated with reactionary forces in the country to undermine allende’s credibility and ultimately overthrow him in a bloody coup.

in allende’s place, the US helped install military leader augusto pinochet who returned “freedom” to chile through re-privatization and the extra-judicial murder of an estimated 3,197 chileans. despite pinochet’s reputation as one of latin america’s most brutal fascists, the US supported his regime without issue. “i would say they are dictatorial,” nixon later conceded, “i would also have to, on the other side, indicate that they are non-communist and that they are not enemies of the united states.”
