it really is mind-boggling to me that the only reason i know about the Congolese and Sudanese genocides is because of the tireless work of grassroots activists and advocates posting on social media. I can honestly say that if I didn't have social media and didn't happen to be following Black authors and activists, I never would have known what was happening in Sudan and Congo because it is simply not being reported in the great majority of mainstream media. We're talking millions upon millions of PEOPLE enduring unimaginable pain and devastation with next to no official reporting. And yes that is in huge part due to the level of violence and displacement occurring that is preventing a lot of news from getting out of these countries, but it's also so blatantly due to anti-Black racism and the perception of African Nations as inherently savage and violent. But genocide is not and never should be normal for anyone anywhere. With that in mind, please keep Congo and Sudan in your thoughts. Check out Focus Congo for resources to help the Congolese people on the ground. Focus Congo's MO is a local organisation whose goal is to rebuild homes, rehabilitate land, and provide medical aid, education, and resources to Congo's most affected people. Also, Check out Keep Eyes On Sudan for how to help out and raise awareness of Sudanese people displaced by civil war. According to Sudanese TikToker bsonblast, donations to local food kitchens in Sudan are desperately needed to fight famine. If anyone has other resources specifically for helping Congo and Sudan, please add them and link them <3
Letâs give all genocide the same attention. All eyes on Sudan, Congo, and many overlooked genocides/wars in Africa. đ¨đŠđ¸đŠđ§đŽđąđˇđ¸đąđšđŠđ¨đŤ and many more.

Lydia Pettit (American, 1991) - Entry Points (2024)
i was going through the tes wiki and learned about the maormeri and oh my god my mouth dropped lol???
like
[image id: a cropped screenshot of the search result for âmaormerâ. the description says âThe Maormer, also known as Tropical Elves, Sea Elves, Fish Elves, or Pyandoneans, are a race of Mer that live on the continent Pyandonea, far south of the Summerset Isles, after migrating there from the legendary continent Aldmeris as Aldmer in the Merethic Era.â end id]
so like, iâm maori, an indigenous new zealander. maori are polynesian. i donât think i have to point out the similarities between âmaormerâ and âmaoriâ lol but âpolynesiaâ and âpyandoneaâ even have the same number of letters. making them sea elves is pretty blatant also seeing as maori are islanders.
a lot of the lore and design for the maormeri is pretty on the nose, take this for example:
[image id: a screenshot of the elder scrolls wiki, showing a drawing of a carved wooden sea serpent. the serpent is sky blue with yellow detailing and the mouth of the serpent is wide open. there are large spikes on its neck and there are multiple detailings of lines curving back and forth in an sort of hourglass shape which is quite similar to a design used in traditional maori art. the serpent is labeled âSerpent-totems concept artâ showing that it is designed to be a âtotem poleâ. end id]
[image id: a screenshot of a google image result for âtaniwhaâ that i found on the first page of results. it shows the head of a similar looking sea serpent. the serpent (or taniwha) is bright red and has a very similar pose and detailing to the blue sea serpent. end id]
like we are known for our wood carvings and totems lol. i donât want the post to get too long so i wonât list everything but pretty much the entire wiki i scrolled down and was able to say âhey this is ripped off from maori folklore (that youâd find by doing a 5 minute google search)â or âwow this is based off a racist stereotypeâ like omg
to be clear iâm not saying to not use this race or whatever, iâd be a hypocrite if i said that even if i cared about people using a video game race for an oc or whatever. but iâve seen a couple posts go around about the racist design tropes used in TES and i havenât seen anything about this yet so i figured iâd chip in and maybe raise awareness about this. i didnât even know this race existed frankly, theyâre unplayable ingame afaik and mostly just in ESO so i get why it hasnât been brought up but. holy shit. âmaormerâ
to add to this i looked through the lore and they have âelaborate tattoosâ (moko) and a âvicious demeanorâ (a racist stereotype) like holy shit dude. aaaaaaaaaa
Amegaotaku is currently the victim of an organized bullying campaign set up by her haters to insult, mock, and torment her because she has special needs and canât explain herself the same way everybody else does. The harassment has gotten so bad that amegaotaku has basically gone offline and wonât talk to any of her friends including her own boyfriend. This was part of a scheme concocted by amegaotakuâs bitter ex-best friend Tasha from the Total Drama fandom where she would mass send anons to people accusing amegaotaku of being a Zionist. Then she got everyone to believe amegaotaku was responsible for sending these anons and a bunch of trolls started getting mad at her and now people wonât stop making fun of her username and sending her hate. Is there any way you could offer some help to amegaotaku? It would mean a lot if someone could support her through all of this.
pay me reparations and then go fully offline, i think that would help?

temporarily took down all my about etc so i can completely redo my shitty theme
Almost 200 people were murdered in Armenia in 3 days and y'all are still ignoring us.
This is not war, this is a massacre Azerbaijan and Turkey are committing against the Armenian people.
Turkey's president literally admitted that he wants to finish what his ancestors started. He wants to commit another genocide, and this time he wants to kill us all.
Silence is violence
I know that most of you donât know the history behind this region. It is a result of the Soviet Union playing literal chess with the entirety of the caucus region. The only thing Iâll say about that is that the âdisputed landâ has countless Armenian churches and monetaries and graves dating back to the first century, (about 10 centuries before the Turkic people came to that region of the world). Iâll let you be the judge of who is on the right here as I know there have been losses on both sides, and that is tragic for all. But thatâs not whatâs important here. If there is one thing you need to be aware of regarding this topic is that this is not just a clash over disputed land anymore as a lot of international news sources are making it seem. The attacks are no longer in the disputed land but in ARMENIAâs borders. A country of 3 million cannot and would not start a war with that if 30 million, which has a literal superpower at its back like turkey, which has over 80 million. What this actually is is Turkey using this opportunity to continue the Pan-Turkic ideology that calls for the destruction of all non-Turkic ETHNIC (!!) groups in the caucus region. Re: Armenians, Assyrians, Kurds, Greeks etc (notice how a lot of those groups no longer have a claim to their own lands, and those who do ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING IT). This is literally a continuation of the Armenian genocide of 1915 and if the world closes its eyes at it once more, this may the be the end for us.
yeah, thank you for the addition! the media is talking about âdisputed landsâ and âconflict in the regionâ and âcall for ceasfiresâ (when azerbaijan has repeatedly broken the ceasfires SINCE 1994)
this is the region the soviets picked up and handed over to azerbaijan as if we hadnât lived there for centuries, building our communities, building our culture. thereâs no fucking dispute that this is our land, part of our country, but azerbaijan lost the region in the war and has been trying to take it back ever since. to put it simply, the people who occupy this region have lived under constant threat of war SINCE 1994.Â
iâm really fucking sick of this âboth sidesâ type of reporting. if they left us the fuck alone, no one would need to die! we wouldnât want to continue the war because we just want to be able to live in peace. jesus fucking christ.
