"They say the Soviet proletariat dictatorship will guarantee equal material conditions for the people, but without freedom what difference is there between such equality and a prison where every prisoner gets equal rations? Humanity must of course be equal, but they must also be guaranteed freedom on top of equality. Whether called a struggle for independence or revolution, what value is there in a movement that lacks this crucial condition?"
- Lee Hoe-yeong, Korean anarchist and independence fighter. His family, one of the richest in #Korea at the time, used their entire wealth for the independence struggle. Five of the six brothers, including Hoe-yeong, died resisting Japanese rule. #history #anticolonialism #politics
<< A huge trove of secret government documents reveals for the first time how the giants of Western banking move trillions of dollars in suspicious transactions, enriching themselves and their shareholders while facilitating the work of terrorists, kleptocrats, and drug kingpins.
And the US government, despite its vast powers, fails to stop it.
Today, the FinCEN Files — thousands of “suspicious activity reports” and other US government documents — offer an unprecedented view of global financial corruption, the banks enabling it, and the government agencies that watch as it flourishes. BuzzFeed News has shared these reports with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists and more than 100 news organizations in 88 countries. >>

Weird metaphysical and ethnic shit
I'm of irish and polish blood and was destined to be a Shaman or Druid or Spirit caller, but got raised on Buddha and Native American lore.
And then a medicine man, chief, WW2 veteran and 8'th degree black belt decided to appropriate my family to get away from His, and my mom's his Servant now.
Not in any Legal sense, mind. My mom's one of the Sidhe and plural like me, so she's got one of those Fae Life Debts going on.
So all the local fae and cryptids treat me like I'm this weird supernatural creature, a white shaman. They're used to white folks being blind, deaf and dumb.
And don't get me wrong, get plenty of the Celtic spirits contacting me too, it's just upsetting when a Tote Bag full of Native American Goodies gets forwarded to you because your Mom won't accept paying.
i wish people would stop excusing bigotry as a ‘slip of the tongue.’ a slip of the tongue is me saying fuck around my sisters’ young children because that’s a word that’s in my every day vocabulary. it wouldn’t just slip off your tongue if you weren’t already comfortable saying it in places you knew you wouldn’t get backlash for it.
Southern Mass's local machine healer and part time witchdoctor.
Tiny motorcycles, magic potions, machine tools, progressive rock, trance states, and hand sharpened drill bits. Oh, and I read Tarot. Probably 18+ just to be sure.
