It's still hilarious to me that the *Quantum of Solace* (2008) Bond villain's outlandish evil scheme was that he monopolized Bolivia's drinking water supply and raised the price by some obscene number (which actually happened)

...but that percentage he raised water prices by was actually *less* than what the water hike was IRL during the Bolivian water crisis.

It's almost like the script writers read about the actual crisis and were like "no, no, no, the Bond villain can't raise water prices *that* much...that's *too* evil...Americans will never believe it."

Just found this in my fluffy folder and didn't want to keep it to myself

White leftists have no footing to claim that what a democratically elected indigenous man did while in power, (a man who pulled MILLIONS out of poverty and IMF backed destruction, who united the indigenous peoples, one who nationalized many of their natural resources to fight back against corporatization) "wasn't enough", to hold a microscope to their perceived pitfalls and mistakes/poor policy positions, while ignoring the megatons of good and the importance of having leftist indigenous representation in Latin America, is honestly your whiteness showing fuckin HARD

If you ain't up in arms over the coup and the amount of racism and abuse the indigenous people are facing as a result and have the "well..actuaally.." attitude about it, then block me. Either you can learn, listen, and understand, or you can leave.

This is a fascist anti-indigenous US backed Coup in order to destablize the country to steal the resources they wished to nationalize.

Stop repeating neolib talking points.

Bolivia: Siete cocaleros muertos en choques con militares y policías en Cochabamba

Aunque todos fuesen cocaleros, identificarlos por su actividad (cultivar coca) y no por la causa (protestar contra el golpe) de su muerte es una manera de atenuar el crimen contra ellos. En Hong Kong murió un "manifestante". En Bolivia, siete cocaleros

this one might be my favorite, it's so sweet

just thinking about photographs from before affection and physical contact between men became heavily socially stigmatized

people really genuinely misunderstand autism. its not a disease, and its not a malfunction. its just peoples brains being structured differently. they can perceive just as much as everyone else; we just interpret the input differently, or have a hard time understanding the input. because of this, you cannot separate someone from their autism, because the autism IS how we UNDERSTAND the world. you would have to alter someones comprehension, which would completely alter the person. which means, you cannot separate an autistic person from their autism. autism is just describing HOW our brains work.
