Dred Scott v. Sanford A Brief History with Documents. Paul Finkelman
Today the Supreme Court is debating the constitutionality of "birthright citizenship."
This was something that was settled law when the 14th amendment was passed.
But it was 169yrs ago today the Supreme Court decided that Blacks had "no rights the white man was bound to respect."
We're back
500 points! nice

but if "he's just stupid" that should also be disqualifying!!
i hate when the walmart building has that little design feature that makes it look like a little village of multiple shops. just mocking what they took from us right to our face.
Every single person in the entire chain of command that massacred the schoolgirls in Minab, and that is currently carpet bombing Iranian civilians, needs to be tried and jailed in The Hague. Sick, depraved monsters drunk on imperial hubris.
I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

The last photo of third-grader Mikaeil Mirdoraghi, waving to his mom before he left for school. He was killed shortly after in the U.S./Israeli strike on a primary school in Minab.
New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...
I have never been to California and will be in the LA area for the first time. Should I extend my trip and go to Disney? Should I extend my trip lying to myself saying I will go to Disney and then spend the extra day at some bookstores?
holy shit this is advertising a second season
its an ad for a peacock tv show called ted based on that movie I guess where Seth Macfarlane was a teddy bear
it's like every single media company has decided they are done. its like they think humans physically have to watch tv. as if after scrolling and finding just garbage we will just watch garbage.
“My little girl was completely burned,” he said. “There was nothing left of her. We could only identify her from her school bag, which she was still holding. She was completely burned.”
When will I learn to ask a librarian first?!?!
Trying to get a local newspaper article from 2013. I paid for subscription for $10. Add $3 to see a single 2013 article--it's a word doc with the text of the article copied. Useless. $13
I called the library from that town. This man finds the article and emails it to me. A 30 second call. $0
you need to understand that Platner is not just a candidate , he is a canary in the coalmine to a certain kind of man that the world has not changed and they still can get plush gigs and pole position in society and life with zero qualification and even less aptitude for the work .
I fall back on being a smarmy asshole as a defensive mechanism, but I really did spend a good chunk of last night heaving over the toilet almost throwing up on the verge of tears after reading about this and then checking CNN and the front page story was about the six American soldiers killed.
Ever spend days trying to find some info?
Then finally you explain your days of research to the internet hoping for an expert to hop on and help --- only for some yokel to do the very first search you did and post that like it's in any way useful?
AI has turned every internet interaction to that.
I’ve been deaf in my right ear from a #measles infection since I was 4; before more effective #MMR was available.
Hearing loss, vision loss, cognitive impairment of infants, even loss of acquired immunity to other diseases.
We are the rebuttal to the lie of “it’s a harmless childhood disease.”

this is murder
Imaging a human saying to you, "i will only ever tell you what i think you want to hear, based on what i know about ppl like you, how you start our conversation, & what you say during it. Sometimes that will sound like truth, sometimes like errors or lies. Now: Let's talk about your medical history"
call the genital obsessed bathroom police out. these losers should be ashamed and embarrassed every time they speak.
shame them into silence.
YOU CAN FIGHT ICE BY ANNOYING THEM - MESS UP THEIR FOOD/DRINK ORDERS - LOSE THEIR TICKETS/RESERVATIONS - OVERTIGHTEN LUG NUTS, STRIP SPARK PLUGS - GIVE THEM INCORRECT BUT REAL-SOUNDING INFORMATION - RECORD THEM WITH YOUR PHONES - DISRUPT THEM WITH LOUD NOISES (CAR ALARMS, MUSIC, BANGING METAL) AND BRIGHT LIGHTS (FLASHLIGHTS, HEADLIGHTS) - SHAME THEM Fuck yeah THE FASCISTS WANT COMPLACENCY. DO NOT GIVE IT TO THEM. Fuck them White supremacist IT IS YOUR RIGHT TO MAKE «MISTAKES"
Monkey wrenching is such an under appreciated form of protest
yo yo yo the Green Knight A24 movie is on Netflix
This is a national embarrassment.
Moving immigration abductees far from home as soon as possible is designed to cut them off from family, friends, and community resources. It also means that when people are released, it's into a strange place with no help—and people are rising to meet that need around camps like Dilley.
If they had DEI they’d know it was Targét not Tarzhay
