This is why I am not a Hindu, nor a Savarna, and why I do not interact with any Savarnas ever.

I would go as far as to say that these Savarna males around me would have gleefully participated in the atrocities which took place on that bus in New Delhi, had they been on board. You know EXACTLY which bus I am referring to.

The Savarna men around me are not spiritual even in the slightest. If they were, they would have some concern towards their own humanity, which they absolutely do not.

… and pointless fun for the children. To Savarna men, it is simply another method of feeding their possessions and property the poisons that keep us enmeshed and co-dependent upon them.

Looking back now, I can recall many instances where they would inflict harm upon me before any of these religious festivals. These festivals would always seem like a relief for the men in that they were able to temporarily provide, at little to no cost, spiritual-themed entertainment for the women …

They have no spiritual energy to celebrate, so they consume the energies of sexually wounded people to fashion into the religious/spiritual vibes that they want to feel.

I am done with that. I have studied this particular branch of Hinduism and concluded that that there is nothing remotely spiritual taking place here. It is purely mental illnesses, dysfunction, rape, pedophilia, and incestuous child abuse.

It is difficult to understand what is taking place upon your entity when your entity itself is getting consumed.

Having migrated out of India, and casteists preventing the inferiorized castes from leaving, means they have to improvise. Conveniently, they had me to inferiorize and consume.

For decades, I have been their prime target of consumption. It has taken me a while to understand casteism sufficiently to recognize that this consumption would have been traditionally carried out upon the bodies of inferiorized castes.

They need to consume the energy of sexually wounded people for them to enjoy their supposed religious festival.

Within the casteist household that I have been born into, it seems to me that all of their supposed religious celebrations are tied to a requirement most horrendous and offensive.

Today is a festival that the Hindus call ’Holi‘.

I am looking back, with my intact basic humanity as an adult, and reflecting on what any of this has been.

Episode 364 – Canada supports bombing Iran; feels bad about it In this episode, Sandy and Nora talk about Canada’s bizarre support for bombing Iran, and how despite all Mark Carney’s rhetoric, the old order (Canada’s full support for US imperialism) remains in ta...

Critics Slam Carney’s Plan to Jump-Start Canada’s Economy via Military Industry Canada’s prime minister faces blowback for his plan to hike Canadian arms companies’ profits by 240 percent in 10 years.

In my latest for @truthout.org I ask the question that nearly no journalists in Canada are asking: why on earth would we pour tremendous resources into building up our military given crumbling social conditions?

"I have disciplined myself and have altered my participation in this Creation so that you can also exist. You have no discipline over yourself in allowing others to survive. I have a right to exist in this Universe undisturbed. I have never denied your right to survival."

-Anna Mae Aquash

"I am not a citizen of the United States or a ward of the Federal Government. Neither am I a ward of the Canadian Government. I refuse to be punished because of your inability to enforce a governing system that I have not agreed to."

"l refuse to accept any man-made governing laws that cannot be enforced with fairness to everyone and their freedom. I believe in the laws of Nature which are being enforced without man himself. If l fail to obey these laws of Nature then l shall face my punishment."

"I am being denied my right to participate in this Creation. The reason given for this being that I have violated a Federal Law which is the possession of a firearm whose serial numbers have been removed.
There is no law of governing that I have agreed to in this country with anyone."

"l am a part of this creation as you are. l am the generation of generations before me and the generations to come. l have travelled throughout this Universe and have been only a minute part of this Creation. And from this l have learned what is my freedom."

"It is time that we think of liberation, to pray for the People. It is time to make a decision on what we morally believe to be right and what we morally believe to be wrong. It is time to live by those moral beliefs even if it means we must be unpopular, even if it means we will be attacked."

"It is time for the people to stand for what they believe in. It is time to bring to a halt the criminal practices of federal agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is time to bring back honor and respect. It is time to bring truth back into our daily lives."

"They want us to be intimidated. They want to separate us by race. They want to separate us by class. They want to separate us by sex. That is why they put Leonard Peltier on trial and convicted him. That is why every member of the American Indian Movement has been to court in the last five years."

"True power is natural. A blizzard is true natural power, a tornado and a hurricane and an earthquake. These things of natural power that come from earth are Powers that man cannot control. The federal government does not want us to recognize that as people we carry this natural power within us."

"They want to destroy our culture... They want to make us feel powerless. They want to destroy our spirit, to not understand our natural relationship to the earth, to look at their laws and their guns and their bombs as being power. They do not want us to recognize these are instruments of violence"

"We take all things into consideration and we think it is time the people of America evaluate their position. It is time a decision be made as to whose rights are more important: the rights of the people or the rights of the government. It is time to be realistic about the future."

"We are surprised the American public can accept the conduct of various agencies such as the FBI. All we must do is look at their conduct in the last 10-15 years, the attacks against the Blacks, against Martin Luther King, Jr., against Fred Hampton, against the Communists and the Socialists."

For Social Work Month, I am highlighting some of the worst practitioners who harmed me. Next up, is the white woman who was in charge of Discharge Planning at the hospital in North Bay, which was my initial job after graduate school, who I mention in this essay! 👀

On Day 3 of shitty social workers, the White Whisperer is up. She is a brown woman who prided herself on giving white fuckers the benefit of the doubt at the expense of more marginalized folx like myself, which is exactly how she became my Team Lead! 🤡

In Day 2 of shitty social workers, I am going to focus on the white gay man I trusted was actually invested in racial justice since he had a racialized partner, who I reference here! 👀

Fun fact: When I realized he was a white supremacist, I took a bereavement day! 🤣
