this is what i mean about bluesky also cooking minds as badly as twitter. the chart eaters are no less callous & hateful than the nazis over there. the difference is that these guys are influencing progressive & demsocialist orgs & activists in deeply sinister ways. they will both lead to mass death

it’s annoying and won’t please anyone but there is no such thing as THE puerto rican identity.

thomas @tgracchus1781.bsky.social · 15/10/2026

studying puerto rican history is interesting because the question of “what and who is a puerto rican” is a debate that began 400 years ago. in fact, the actual “essence” of puerto rican identity might be that existential identity crisis.

proof of this is that it didn’t happen after reagan or george w bush or, most importantly, the first trump admin. do not underestimate the slavishness of the rank-and-file Democrat.

I think in many cases this springs from the sort of "great evil man of history" thinking that dominates discussion of trump and rejects the idea that he and musk and thiel etc are the fulfillment of the american conservative movement and not an aberration

you think trump is uniquely evil for one of two reasons 1) Democratic party commitment to the shared two party consensus state or 2) you are very young or very old with sentimental delusions about america.

The Legend of Diego Alcedo: in 1511, Agueybana II, a Cacique of the Taínos, ordered the ambush of Diego Alcedo. some Taino were apprehensive fearing that he was a god. despite their fear, they drowned him & proved that he was no god. to this day Añasco is known as “the city where gods die”

She condemned the Biden U.S. arms deal with Israel, and as retaliation the Biden administration opened an investigation against her. The Trump administration is actually piggybacking off that Democratic investigation. Both parties are cesspools of Islamophobia.

the myth of progress gives rise to the idea that columbus was a “man of his times” and that is somehow an excuse for any number of monsters. its easier to believe that It Gets Better than to admit that sometimes, often even, the working people and the oppressed lose and lose and lose for centuries.

reminds me of my first encounter w/ “scanners” at my local Friends of the Library book sale. there were people roving around using phones to scan books & pile them in large bins. apparently there are apps that give resale estimates. it was so deeply offputting & felt alien to the spirit of the event

more interesting to me is that culturally we associate “rationality” with the rich, the successful, the famous whereas the working class & poor are never granted an assumption of rationality but assumed to behave without forethought or discipline. thus the irrationality of the rich appears shocking.
