I would like to think this. But then I think of Sandy Hook and American schoolkids being sacrificed to the Sacred Gun altar. So... no. America, at least, hasn't.

They are associated with Epstein. Robert Mueller didn't care that children were being raped. Have you noticed the die-hard DOJ defenders ignored Epstein for TEN YEARS while defending Mueller/Garland? And now they suddenly care and are contacting victims? They are doing damage control for the DOJ.

People are citing the Pope--- and even though Christianity is no longer my main spiritual practice, I don't see a way out of the West's fascination with power, technology and mass death through only secular means. We are dealing with men who believe they are gods.

In an age when the Peter Thiels of the world are smiling and saying evil does good because it is competent, we are entering a time when we will need to be aggressively "pro-human." Or at the very least, Pro-Good. And we have to build power, unapologetically.

My father died, I was fired from my job for speaking out against Charlie Kirk, lost a teaching gig because I critiqued Israel. And yet, I’ve managed to not publicly crashout and ruthlessly attack other free speech voices. The amount of personal restraint people expect of Black women is wild.

Everyone is mad. There’s a literal genocide going on. Women are being attacked. Trans people are being attacked, Black women are being economically destroyed. Immigrants are being rounded up. But until white people especially work on their desires to dominate and abuse, we won’t get anywhere.

Pennsylvania has now reported 4 measles-associated deaths in 2026, its first measles-associated deaths in 35 years. One person was just 18, unvaccinated, and died from ADEM, a rare, severe neurological complication. Measles isn’t “just a rash.” MMR vaccination is 97% effective.

Arizona is the first state to sue L’Oréal over alleged cancer risks from some hair relaxers. A 2022 NIH study found frequent chemical straightener use was associated with >2x the risk of uterine cancer. Association ≠ causation. Black women deserve to know what’s happening. #DrUcheBlackstock

Racism and sexism are old societal cancers. Without the ability to mass-screen the workforce each year for racial and gender inequities, those malignancies are likely to swell and spread unrecognized, undiagnosed, untreated, as they did in 1963. Which is the plan. theemancipator.org/2026/09/10/i...
