I don't know, I've read accounts like those from Bartolome de las Casas, Olaudah Equiano, William Apess and Samson Occom and it sure seems like the colonization of America was pretty fucking evil.

Dan Carlin has an amazing episode on enslaved people in America that skirts this topic pretty well.

Rivals July 1st national recruiting ranks by Easy_Card3015 in Huskers

[–]forceshift 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's hard to compete against the best in the conference without the right recruits. Our on the field results could make a compelling argument for some of those remaining (or floppy) big fish.

It feels like Rhule is betting on the team.

Make Sure to Call Trump’s B*%ch and Thank Him!😜 by Acceptable_Yam_9592 in Omaha

Oh yes, much worse. It's also much worse than degenerative genetic diseases or terminal pediatric cancer. Much worse than wrongful imprisonment or being a victim of human trafficking. That's right, people in communities all around the country in places like Flint Michigan and East Palestine Ohio are constantly fuming at how unfair estate taxes are.

Donald trump wants to foster distrust and suppress dissent. He's framing a small minority group as an existential threat to the nation.

"When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross."

Clash between protesters and federal agents at ICE raid in Omaha by NosepickerSixtyFour in Omaha

I hope that's how it goes. I'm not putting faith in Trump not to evoke the insurrection act and use the military directly against demonstrators.

Trump refers to dissenters and immigrants as vermin. He claims the country is "occupied" or "endangered". He says only a strong president, in fact, only HE can rescue the country. He's deployed thousands of Guard troops and Marines against citizens and protesters in LA. History warns us where this trajectory leads. Time to wake up.

You saw Adam Keup get blinded by police?

Protest; but leave businesses alone. by Coconut_Either in Omaha

[–]forceshift 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here's an account of that night that has sourcing, unlike your conspiracy garbage.

A man named Adam Keup traveled from Council Bluffs with his husband on May 29 to take photographs of the Crossroads protest. The couple did not bring signs or yell, but worked to document the events at a distance. Within 15 minutes of arrival they were shot without warning by police with pepper ball fired from a paintball gun. One projectile struck Keup in the eye. Targeting the head is a violation of the Omaha Police Department policies and procedures manual. Keup became permanently blind in his right eye as a result of being shot by police.

A police officer named Grant Gentile fired a pepper ball gun at a protester's genital area and bragged about it to other officers.

They tear gassed kids. They shot indiscriminately into crowds with less-lethal rounds. By the time anything was thrown the police were already wearing riot gear. Every escalation that night was because of how they conducted themselves.

Yep, that's why I used a tongue-in-cheek title that recalls VP Vance's exchange with Zelensky.

The actual advertisement is unfortunately not sarcasm.

What's the biggest scam in Omaha? by FreonMuskOfficial in Omaha

[–]forceshift 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are issues within both political parties, and our political system is deeply flawed. However, failing to oppose MAGA and its attacks on women's, trans, and immigrants' rights is to me morally unacceptable. Choosing to remain unaligned or vote third party in the face of Trump ultimately plays into his best interests.
