Don't you fucking dare compare TikTok to Vine. ITS NOT THE SAME THING

Vine went away cuz it couldn't afford to stay active

TikTok went away because congress RIPPED it away from us. It let to many activist groups connect faster than ever before; it let too many voices of dissent be heard louder than ever before; and most importantly it was more popular than Facebook, Twitter( cuz fuck that X bullshit), and instagram.

I understand losing both of these platforms hurt, I was alive for vine's death to. But don't let yourself be fooled into a falce equivalence.

Vine died

TikTok was murdered.

"lol tiktok users would rather learn mandarin than come to tumblr" yeah man that's crazy. who would have thought that people from the video-based dopamine-machine app wouldn't decide to join the text- and image- based no-algorithm website?

absolutely incredible how tumblr is arguably one of the most tolerable social media sites right now

Bro, christopher columbas was a colonizer piece of shit and all, but if youre not talking about the forced sterilization of indigenous women, the lack of access to clean drinking water on reserves, the missing indigenous women who go missing with no investigation, or any of the other multitudes of indigenous issues happening currently today, your bonus woke points for saying fuck christopher columbus arent worth shit tbh

[sexycontainmentprocedures]

Hope it's okay to add to this, I wanted to know more about these specific issues so here are some links for people:

on forced sterilization

on water crises

on missing persons (also here)

Wikipedia article outlining major issues

I think those are pretty US-centric, so here is Canadian info:

8 Key Issues for Indigenous Peoples in Canada

water crises (Canada-specific)

history and social info about their oppression

Lastly, I started wondering if Alaska has unique issues for its indigenous population, and it appears to:

info on Alaskan Natives' history

"10 things you should know" (including hardships they face)

[gnascher]

info on cops in Alaska

info on hawaiian sovereignty

[princessnijireiki]

All of this also applies to indigenous populations in Latin America and the Caribbean, and non-whitepassing Native + Mestizo Latinxs stateside as well.

Please don't forget the whole other half of the Americas + the other American continent in your indigenous activism just because those indigenous peoples reside in the global south when they face the same colonial violence and racial/sexual terrorization and genocides as their northern neighbors & cousins.
