  • I feel that they’re already doing that by eliminating the choice of Hispanic or Latinx options as a race and letting them choose white.

    “In a sense, we’re forming a new kind of mainstream society here, which is going to be very diverse,” City University of New York sociologist Richard Alba told the Hill. “But whites are going to be a big part of that.”

    To say something like this is insane to me. “Whites” are going to be a big part of mainstream society? “The future is white and we will make sure of it, in the name of diversity.”

    Now the system can reinforce white supremacy through the co-option of peoples that would have been considered otherwise. This is diversity now sweaty.





  • The tracking by osmand app doesn’t seem to be anything malicious or revealing. Developers, contributors, and users discuss the meaning of the tracking here, which is also referenced in the F-Droid page. After reading some back and forth, the level of privacy or lack of you get from the tracking seems subjective. I personally don’t agree with it but its not as nosy as gmaps.

    How are magic earth and organic maps any better in respect to privacy or tracking/reporting?



  • Nice short informative video. I wasnt aware of the current situation in Laos regarding cluster bombs, even the history of it. The nursery rhymes of warning children of unexploded clusters was especially dark. The support from China with a high speed rail connection and bomb removal is impressive compared to that of the Obama administration’s donation absent of an apology.

    I can’t imagine how people can support the use of these weapons in Ukraine.
