Why Didn’t The National Media Tell Us About The Demonstrations By Indigenous People And Other Climate

Why didn’t the national media tell us about the demonstrations by Indigenous People and other climate activists and arrests in DC?

The national media was busy this past week telling us all about Captain Kirk’s 11-minute voyage into space and other nonsense. But it didn’t tell us much, if anything, about the hundreds of arrests of Indigenous People and other climate activists in DC. Why not? Because the protests did not involve the name “trump,” so the stories wouldn’t sell space online or hard copies of newspapers.

During the week of October 11, 585 people were arrested for demonstrating, most in front of the White House. Why? Probably because they didn’t have a permit and were demonstrating on a public sidewalk. So, how many of the thousands of angry right-wing men and women who stormed the US Capitol on January 6, broke into the building, trashed the place and stole stuff, smacked the police and other acts of violence were arrested on that day? Just a handful. The arrests came later, after we all digested what we had just seen. Tells me something. 

Here are some photos of the October 11 event which I saw on my feed from DeSmog Blog. Now we can at least see something, and maybe know a little more. And here are links (here, here and here) to other stores from DeSmog Blog, each with great photos and some interesting videos, including one with a combative granny.

Republicans Deliberately Use Coded Language To Trick People To Vote For Them And Radicalize Their Group.

Republicans deliberately use coded language to trick people to vote for them and radicalize their group. Many don't even realize they're radicalized or what they're saying is even racist. This is why they think the Left is "over reacting" because the either know they're using coded language and don't care, or they don't know anything at all.

Quietly losing my mind over the fact that Elon Musk has straight up orchestrated a coup of our executive branch and like....I don't even know what, if any, system we have in place to fix this. Like... He's just taken control of the money and locked out the actual appointed officials. What the fuck.

Knowing that trans women of color started the movement in the united states and were literally immediately erased and excluded from what they started is the most deeply jading knowledge.

It is the original sin of the so-called queer community and it damns it from the cradle.

Transcript: Dreamtale Story And Endings Spoilers. I'm 99.99999% Sure None Of The Endings Have Been Published

Transcript: Dreamtale story and endings spoilers. I'm 99.99999% sure none of the endings have been published yet but the creator talked about them.

I am in shock. I'm just. Floored. I haven't kept up with apple brothers Dreamtale in forever but yesterday I found out that 1) passive Nightmare is dead for good and Dream can't save him in ANY of Dreamtale's future endings 2) Nim, the twins' own mother, might be or is part of Corrupted Nightmare together with the evil spirit entity that is hunting Dream and the golden apple down (but dream's bro is still dead forever, from what I've seen) and 3) Nim is horrible and petty to the max and not in an entertaining way. She deliberately forced an emotion balance on the Multiverse because she hated mortals. She did not have to do it but she did. So many stories act like the emotion balance is a natural part of the Multiverse and is good for the Multiverse but it's NOT. It's only there because Nim hates everyone. I never liked the emotion balance idea but now I found out the entire Multiverse has to suffer and will die if Dream does because of Nim's pettiness???? Why does no one talk about this? How did I miss this? I. I'm questioning everything I thought I knew about Dreamtale canon. Were these things revealed not long ago? Was Nim not so bad in the preboot?? Did fanon change her character and downplay what she did and it made me forget how horrible she is??? I wouldn't mind if she was treated as morally gray but NO. Where the hockey stick did the "good Guardian and mother Nim" idea come from???? She's up there with XGaster and Handplates Gaster in the AWFUL parent awards.

I'm sorry about the questions but please, if any of this is fanon and not canon or I'm missing important context PLEASE tell me where I'm wrong because I am questioning so much of what I thought I knew about canon Dreamtale as a whole and I''m not going to spend my time looking at an canon I don't like anymore. I can't lie, this makes me hate the balance idea SO MUCH MORE. If it was just Dreamtale, it'd be fine but no, the emotion balance was forced into the Multiverse and changed how it worked to make Dream more special. UGH WHY.
