There's no radical feminism without solidarity for and with women from the third world and global South. We're not just brown bodies to be crushed and "it's always been that way". No, misogyny has always been there but the effects of colonialism and imperialism make things worse.

We can call race a construct all day but the way it exists socially does affect us and unless you're willing to understand the way that plays out in your biases, you're not really in solidarity with us.

Somalia:

- Inbreeding rates of +60%

- Tens of thousands of child brides per year

- 58% of the adult population is illiterate

- Mass female genital mutilation

- Economy based on piracy and fraud

- Sharia Law and bloody tribal warfare

Somalian culture is incompatible with western civilization.

No politician has ever tried to make the case that Somali migration is good for America because of course, it is not.

But Obama brought Somalis to America by the hundreds of thousands. Why?

No one would ever vote for this. Its time for the American people to get their way on this critical issue.

We demand a permanent end to third world migration.

Do you support ending third world migration to the United States?

Yes

No

This is why I have never been to Bali or Mauritius or any of those other places people go to get some sun in the winter. The water in Zanzibar was warm and such an arresting shade of turquoise that it seemed to have been dyed. But the income gap between the people who stayed at the resort and the people who actually lived on the island was so wide you couldn’t really see anything else.

Everytime a westerner, specially a gringo, says that they can't deal with "the things" that are happening "right now" and that they want thing to be "normal again" is a reminder that they have spent their whole live living in the blissful ignorant imperialist bubble of the empire.

Not a single thing that is happening is abnormal, every single thing that is happening has been happening for decades in the best of cases and for centuries in the worst of cases, even millenia. But they just didn't cared nor didn't want to know nor want things to change and what they call normal life is just keeping be a beneficiary of imperialism and capitalism, and not having to deal with the 1% of what Global South has to deal with every damn second since centuries.

Gringos are crying bc they are seeing (most not even living in the flesh, just seeing it) the 1% of what, for example, capitalism and the usa regime* has cause in South America since the literal foundation of usa (bc usa regime has always be an imperialist regime). And yet they want that things just keep not happening to them (which to be honest are not many things) but because they live in a bubble of privilege and the benefits of being imperialists they see it as an assault to reality, an absurdity, a destruction of the world and by "world" they just mean their country. The countries they destroy with wars, coups, cultural colonialism, capitalism, transnationals, enslavement, them coming to live, etc everyday since usa foundation? Nah, don't count. Not human enough bc we are not gringos.
