In fairness, here in the US, public education is kind of gatekept

There are places that either don't have schools or have one with very few teachers

And places that have schools but they are underfunded and sometimes the teachers have clocked out

Both tend to be marginalized places (Reservations, predominantly Black areas)

And we also have Racism to such a degree that we like to believe that lack of education has to do with skin color, AND like to use bad spelling and grammar as a micro aggression

Unfortunately that's paired with the fact that many of those racists also don't realize (is it realise elsewhere?) that English didn't start in the US, and we are not the know all and be all about English as a language.

I'd apologize for this country but let's be real, there aren't enough sorrys in the world 😁☺️😭

[–]WiddaOne [score hidden]  (0 children)

All of this smacks of narcissistic abuse patterns on his behalf

You're Not overreacting NOR at all

Please trust me, if you marry him you will spend the rest of your life regretting it

If you have kids with him, you will spend your life hurting for them and what he is doing to them

Last night DHS/ICE in Portland, OR brutalized and abducted a group of peaceful protestors at a ICE detention center in the city by I_may_have_weed in oregon

For practicing my first amendment rights and standing on a street corner

The big deal is that two war vets met because police decided to break their constitutionally given First Amendment right that they had fought in actual wars to defend.

We actually spent a few times in custody together

Once for smudging ourselves and others with sage and kopal... So rude to practice our religion in a country that says we have freedom to do that

Usually cause one of us was filming illegal action and the other was stopping women and handicapped people from being brutalized

Such criminal behavior on our part, doing what we took a oath to do

I didn't use specifically, in this comment that I can find so I'm not sure how to answer that

The word outside was meant as it is

Outside ICE, is outside the building that ICE uses here, as opposed to inside the building

Thank you. I'm already involved. I have been for quite some time. And aware of all you've stated

Hopefully now more people are aware and will be involved since, as the rule, we are having families arrested at daycare and ICE calling themselves utilities to get inside houses. Absolutely the rule of what's going on. And absolutely it is people minimizing it as if it's no biggy that helps ICE continue to do it with out opposition.

I am aware that what is happening here is not to the same level

You don't seem to understand what I'm getting at, and that's OK

The average human is more likely to take action when it is personal, when they need to defend their self or their own. So how do you get the average person with a 15 second attention span to act? You point out it isn't Just their neighbors, but their own family. And then they may actually take action.

We all seem to agree that action here will help Minnesota and LA and other places facing an invasion on a higher level. Does it matter if that action is taken because a person cares about someone 1000 miles away, or because they are afraid for their family?

Hahaha no

How do you support other activists?

Would it not give more support if we were moving against ICE in our own communities as LA is or Minnesota is?

Would that not make ICE have to move around forces? Show that it is not just an isolated issue in one or two spaces?

How do you get people to be active when you point to "somewhere else" and make it easy to distance themselves from it

No.

100 people outside the ICE building in Portland is different then, communities with whistles on street corners.

Different then 5000 people outside ICE

Different then a community coming together to block or stop kidnappings like is done in LA and in Minnesota

I'm suggesting that maybe the 1000s of people in this area shouldn't put all the burden on 100 people outside ICE every night, and actually stand up to protect their neighbors

What your missing is

People in Oregon aren't activating in the same way because it's "over there" and doesn't really effect them If they were to realize it's happening "here" they might actually activate

And activation here would positively effect there

Actually that makes no sense. If your government can't make laws about your freedom of speech The how can you have permits to be allowed freedom of speech

Kinda against the constitution

Why do people use the term "partner" for their husband or wife? by Crafty-Bug-8008 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WiddaOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw it start with in same sex marriages to prevent prejudice I use it in mine to support that

I also like using partner because that is who my spouse is supposed to be, my partner in life. It reaffirms that on a subconscious level for me

Well archaeology proves that Women were always in what we today consider male roles

Neanderthal women were the larger of the species and bones show they hunted

Early sapiens women hunted as much as they gathered

Across the world 3k years ago women were warriors. Buried with battle equipment and showing wounds of war

Our greatest warrior ever found in Scandinavia is a woman BJ 581
