#THEYRE RIGHTS. THEYRE ALREADY OURS.

Text
Artists creating specifically to sell and trading off (some of) their own style to do it, activists begging for attention and shares and media coverage because they aren't being paid enough attention, UNWRA desperate for donations, the percentage of people who don't mask in 2024 compared to deaths and disabilities, ppl who need to be convinced to vote with principles that save lives and that genocide is unacceptable, how a living wage or UBI is believed to be "unrealistic" despite the trillions in shareholder investment accounts.
....I'm starting to think Mainstream People™ fucking suck, ngl. In fact, dare I say that Mainstream People are the biggest obstacle to progress now.
Malcolm X said it was the white liberal as did a lot of other revolutionaries and thinkers.
I, however, think anyone who can hold their own comfort over someone else's suffering is the problem.
Why are the rest of us constantly begging and shouting and changing ourselves and our bodies in an effort to make them care about us? To make them see us? To give us rights? To bless us with the support needed to make a living?
Same shit, different generations. And idk about y'all, but I would love to be the last generations who ever had to hate themselves to survive.

anyway every spider-man in the multiverse is alone except for miles. can anybody hear me
#every spiderman starts out thinking theyre the only one#every spiderman learns the lesson that theyre only one person and they cant save everyone#every spiderman grits their teeth and keeps going in face of tragedy#every spiderman learns about the multiverse and when they realize there are other people like them#they pass on their own trauma in a cycle --- this happened to me and it had to happen so that this good thing could also happen#which means that this terrible thing has to happen to you too#thats their universal truth: they cant save everyone alone so they need to maximize their influence to save as many as they can#but miles? miles morales is the spiderman who got bit already knowing who spiderman was#miles is the spiderman who had six different spider-mentors help him come into his own#miles is the only spiderman whose introductory monologue ends with 'and im not the only one'#miles is the one who looks at all these people whove decided they Have to suffer alone and says#'ok but what if i helped you'#'what if instead of taking the good with the bad we still got the good but stopped the bad anyway'#'sure i can't save everyone alone but the whole goddamn point of the multiverse is that im not the only one'#and thats why miles is our hero#across the spiderverse#across the spiderverse spoilers#(tiny amendment actually: miles is actually not the only spider who knows hes not alone right from the beginning#atsv also introduces us to pavitr --- a member of the spider society whos even more of a rookie than miles is#and huh whaddya know: the kid who knew from the start that he wasnt alone is the one whose traumatic 'canon event' is stopped#in a joint effort between him and his friends#yeah that probably isn't foreshadowing or anything)

i think its funny hgsn is introduced like there just one fucked up mountain the kids all avoid and are kinda scared of, but generally nothing else, but now u get these little moments where someone talks abt how theres an interest enough for some tourist youtubers to be all "yoooo im going to this fucked up place!!!!!!" and then dont come back. our normal town, except the atrocities that apparently are happening more and more and have happened before

i keep getting irrationally miffed at ppl 😐😐
#'impressed by how much u can talk abt this considering youve not played either game'#fuck off. as if im not just trying to show interest bc u + another friend are both into them + constantly talk abt them in our gc!!#i mean since u guys talk abt them all the time + theyre huge on tumblr like. it would be hard for me to not know anything abt them at all#literally what else can i talk to u guys abt anyway. i dont think there are any interests i personally have that they both gaf abt#if anything they actively dislike most of the things im hyperfixated on. or at least she does so like i cant bring that up can i.#all i did was share a post i saw on tumblr that i thought was funny. its not like i had some negative/controversial opinion#i just saw it and thought hey that makes me think of my friends bc they like those things maybe theyll find it funny too!!#dog sitting outside the door with rly big sad eyes offering them a stick i found in a puddle#i like listening to them talk and i will eventually play some of the games theyre into myself cuz they make them sound rly cool#and even if theyre not my kind of thing i like sharing interests with other ppl and sometimes thats enough for me to be able to enjoy it#i literally own some of them already but im just not in the mental space to start smth new right now. which i have SAID!!!!#why do u even care girl. as if u dont already have a ton of friends playing it that ur talking to abt it???? i wont have anything to add#and thats not gonna stop u from being able to talk to me abt it anyway????? like 2/3 of our conversations atm are abt bg3#man. i know its not that deep but it makes me kinda sad for some reason. im just trying. i guess next time ill just let u guys talk-#to each other or at me and not comment or say anything so u can pretend im not here or whatever it is u want#ughh. she probably didnt even mean it like that and ill feel stupid for getting annoyed and delete this later but whatever.#might work out early today and then i can like draw or play a game or smth the rest of the day. alright lets go#.vent#listening to my silly little jfunk/jazz/soul playlist and i already feel over it. healing

I'm trying to not worry too much but if the extreme right-wing wins the next elections in two weeks we'll end up with a right wing chatolic party full of fascists and conservatives that only care about the traditional family and stripping people of all of their civil rights.
Going back to the dark age of Italy.

oh my god i could probably talk abt this forever and i literally wont shut up about it until the world cup rolls around but do u guys wanna know abt the covert coup they tried to stage 2day
#ok so basically bols*naro n his allies were already fearing his loss right. bc they know lula is a popular leftist leader here#little bit of background lula rose to high ranking political office through populism. that means his main focus when in power r the masses#lower classes and socially oppressed groups like black ppl women the Gays™ etc#he was the first ever president to rly look at our country's northeast region and do something for them#historically the northeast is the poorest most discriminated against region. poverty is a great concern there#they annually suffer bc of droughts and they're the part of the country nearly the whole rest is xenophobic towards#i'd say rlly only the north region isnt so xenophobic towards them bc theyre almostttt there but#the south and southeast are the worst. im talking most whitened populations who descend from europeans n think they're better#just bc they're the richer regions too. the midwest comes close too in terms of xenophobia but literally who cares abt them. anyways#bc of this history the northeast region has a history of preferring left-wing leaders esp from pt - lula's party#in the 1st round of elections earlier this month lula won the majority of votes in that region - as expected. bols*naro spectacularly lost#after that he went on to publicly state during a live stream - yes that is how our now soon-to-be FORMER president communicated with us -#that the only reason lula won there is bc the illiteracy rates were higher. basically implying they didnt vote for him bc theyre uneducated#which is v obviously a lie. 7 out of 10 perfect scores in enem - our national highschool exams - came from that region so. yea theyre NOT#uneducated they just never bought into bols*naro's bullshit like the rest of the country did. and he knew that#so fast forward to today. free public transportation on election days is a right to every brazilian citizen#a lot of northeastern people depend on buses to get to the polling places. theyre most notably the region where this happens the most#the chief of the federal highway police is a known public supporter of blsnr. the frp announced they'd be having several traffic blitzes#during election day - that's illegal. keeping ppl from voting or making their journey 2 polling places more difficult is an electoral crime#the supreme electoral court ruled against this. the frp chief then released a statement basically saying yea idc i'll still do this#and 2day they did. several traffic blitzes were set up across the country but guess who took the bigger hit? northeastern voters#roughly HALF of the operations were set up in that region alone - the other half was p evenly distributed between the remaining 4 REGIONS#the northeast suffered roughly 5x more than other regions in voter suppression bc of this. n we already know why#yall know whats the funniest part of this? he still lost 💀#so yea thats basically how blsnr n his lackeys tried 2 overthrow a democratic decision b4 it was even made so they wouldnt lose their power#n when i say that was an illegal move i mean that department of the federal police literally never cared abt that before#n blsnr had already tried to suspend free fare across the country - to keep poor people from voting - during the 1st AND 2nd rounds#he failed so his frp supporters tried to step in. they were legally and directly prohibited from doing so and still went ahead w it#also several northeastern voters posted videos online of federal agents keeping the buses from circulating#and innumerous accounts of them trying to coerce and constrain voters into revealing their voting intentions - another crime
