letting go || letting out
Today while listening to the news I just. Lost my mind a little about a recurring frustration.
I'm constantly frustrated by America and Europe going No, We Can't Have Immigrants From These Poor Countries! As if they didn't cause the fucking problems in those countries in the first place.
"They're fleeing CRIME and POVERTY and SICKNESS and they'll BRING IT HERE" Bitch the crime and sickness are a result of the poverty and the POVERTY is a result of first world countries abusing the hell out of them, like what the FUCK do you think has led to the severity of crises in places like Venezuela and Palestine and the Congo if not the systematic political and economic abuses of the people and natural resources. The problems they are fleeing were created by YOU. You're not allowed to get mad at refugees when you CAUSED THE PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE.
"Oh, so many Haitian immigrants are coming here, why can't they stay in--" ASK FRANCE AND CITIBANK TO FUCKING PAY THEM BACK THE TRILLIONS* THEY DEMANDED FOR THE SLAVE REVOLUTION AND MAYBE THEY'D HAVE A CHANCE * Technically hundreds of billions when adjusted for inflation, interest, and what potential it would have reasonably had to grow in Haiti's economy, but it's hard to calculate. Also, when Haiti asks you to pay them back the 21 billion of the original debt adjusted for inflation, not even counting the interest, maybe don't fucking assassinate (allegedly) the lawfully-elected president who asked for that money!
Maybe when people come to the US from Guatemala, you can have fucking Chiquita pay for their housing!
In this case I'm looking at what the UK and Italy are doing with attempts to move undocumented migrants to Rwanda and Albania respectively and I want to SHAKE THEM.
The fucking United Kingdom does not get to complain about migration from war-torn or poverty stricken areas. You, of all countries, do not get to FUCKING COMPLAIN about people seeking refuge because something is wrong at home. Not after EVERYTHING.
The fact that the UK wasn't directly funding all Palestinian relief agencies out of pure shame for their role in causing this entire decades-long horror of a situation is maddening.
Rex won't stand by that bs

"how can m/f ships be good-" first of all through the power of bisexuality anything is possible so write that down. second of all if we start othering ships based on gender and nothing else we're no better than the opposition. third of all you need to watch more addams family
