I hate how much I notice things. I want to be oblivious.

tumblr pisses me off so fucking bad why does no one ever wants to talk about WHO is working in the slaughter houses and under what conditions. everyone is always like ‘oh you care more about cows and pigs than the exploited farmers having to produce your quinoa’ (as if only vegetarians and vegans eat quinoa but w/e) and its like girl who the fuck do you think is slaughtering these animals? Slaughter houses are shady & dangerous places w/ a long history of failed regulatory oversight. not to mention the mental aspect of having to slaughter animals on industrial scale every single day. These workers are mostly immigrants and refugees and they’re being exploited. Fourteen year old children were found working in slaughterhouses in California like lollll yeah and you paid for that. calling yourself a ‘leftist’ and defending the industrial breeding and killing of animals is hypocritical it just is. and thats fine like we’re all hypocrites but let’s get off that high horse and get a bit real okay?

The biggest labor dispute right now in the US is over meat packing plants enslaving immigrants and segregating people based on their language so they can't ask for help

Every single empire in its official discourse has said that it is not like all the others, that its circumstances are special, that it has a mission to enlighten, civilize, bring order and democracy, and that it uses force only as a last resort. And, sadder still, there always is a chorus of willing intellectuals to say calming words about benign or altruistic empires, as if one shouldn't trust the evidence of one's eyes watching the destruction and the misery and death brought by the latest civilizing mission.

UNPOPULAR OPINION: A lot of "mental health issues" disappear when bills are paid, rent is secure, and the fridge is full. Peace is expensive. And pretending money doesn't affect mental health is privilege.

Good morning,

museums should repatriate artifacts belonging to living cultures and display reproductions instead

[blackbearmagic]

Good afternoon,

no one is entitled to the sacred art, tools, or costumes of another culture (save members of the culture itself) and nonsacred reproductions will serve just as well for the purposes of education and appreciation

[blackbearmagic]

Good evening,

having museums full of reproductions would be even cooler than having museums full of sacred artifacts because when modern craftspeople are able to replicate those artifacts, it’s usually because they still make the same items the same way today

this means that you could have description tags emphasizing that such-and-such item has been made by these people in almost the same way for hundreds of years

having museums full of beautiful reproductions takes the emphasis off of Things and places it on the People who make them, which is really as it should be
