When these dudes were in university, Black people and women were driven out of computer science programs. When these same dudes were software engineers, running hiring committees, Black engineers and women suddenly couldn't get hired, despite being all over the early industry. When these same dudes became Venture Capitalists, Black people and women couldn't raise any money or get on any boards, even though Black women disproportionately start small businesses. Now that these dudes are centi-billionaires, they're open and vocal about their explicitly ethnic cleansing policy positions, and get alt-right presidents elected, and end DEI, and roll back civil rights, and say that giving women the right to vote was a mistake, and talk about white birth rates. And I have to read nonsense from journalists saying that the extreme money turned them fash?🤡 No. You turned fash into extremely wealthy people. By being asleep at the wheel while the worst people on earth amassed untouchable levels of wealth.

For uneducated Americans only (because almost everyone else in the world knows this already): "Inshallah" is not a Muslim phrase. Inshallah is an Arabic phrase. Christians that speak Arabic, say inshallah. "Allah" is how you say God in Arabic. "Inshallah" is how you say "God willing" in Arabic.

There are 93,000 voting aged trans people in Texas. They are 20x to 40x more likely to be Dems than GOP. Not a typo. Twenty to forty times more likely to vote Dem. They are almost 10 ppts more likely to vote than cis people. Some non-zero number will be discouraged by his Fox statement.

Example 1: SF had Chess Boudin, who drove crime down in the same way as Mamdani. They recalled him.🤦🏿‍♂️ Because SF voters that think they are too smart for Fox News, believed all the same easily debunkable lies about Black people. https://hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/109532598142714144 Example 2: SF is too cruel to take care of its homeless population as well as NYC does. NYC has more homeless people than SF, both in absolute numbers and per capita. But the difference in the cruelty is visible. https://hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/111363645802219678 Example 3: SF doesn't celebrate politicians that just relentlessly make quality of life improvements like Mamdani. When Matt Haney noticeably reduced the number of human turds on the street, it wasn't heralded as a major win. https://hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/109956455505195549 Example 4: SF people with degrees in Applied Math from places like MIT and CalTech, and job titles like Data Scientist, still believed the laughably impossible math that Black people could shoplift Fortune 500 companies out of business during the Covid lockdowns.🤦🏿‍♂️ NYC people with the same degrees in Applied Math from MIT and CalTech and job titles like Quant, or Trader, did not believe those laughably bad lies. Because they can read a P&L and an earnings report. So SF was more primed for government cruelty against starving Black people than NYC was. https://hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/109643307529579166

@codebyjeff@hachyderm.io Jeff, I said what I said. I didn't say Americans are stupid or idiots. I said Americans are uneducated. And they are. As a nation, our people objectively don't know enough about the countries or people that we are so keen to bomb. We know very little about Islam, but have made Islamaphobia a big part of our identity. I have lived in lots of countries around the world. And I'm speaking from experience as well as quantitative facts about how little Americans know. Europeans are 3X more likely to know a foreign language, and 6X more likely to be Muslim. Africa and Asia have even more Muslims and aren't as keen to invade and bomb other nations. Your silly, sensitive self thinks because I live in California now, that I've always lived in California. I've lived in Europe, Asia, Africa, and North America. My name is Mekka, and I live in the US, so I experience the uneducated American response to Islam very frequently. I didn't calls Americans stupid or idiots, but I am saying that you are a weirdo for trying to tell me to STFU, and for being a little baby about the very obvious facts that the US is a nation ignorant enough to elect Trump (twice!), and start a war with Iran that is destroying the global economy, and throw a hissy fit because Abdul El-Sayed said "Inshallah." I will not STFU. If you don't like what I said, either do something to make your ignorant countrymen less violent, or GTFO of my mentions. If you want to teach so bad, feel free to do that your own way on your own feed. Weirdo.

What "race" is Ronda Rousey? She didn't even know that she was 12.5% Black until DNA tests told her. Which side of Blanquemiento should she be on? Killer or victim? Is Ronda Rousey Blacker or whiter than Meisha Tate? Could we even answer that without a DNA test? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WdwTOy7ZH1M The point is: Race isn't real. Racism is very real. The entire concept of race was just invented one day by a weird guy in Portugal (Gomes Eanes de Zurara) to justify slavery, and the whole world has been running with it ever since. It's silly. It would be funny if it weren't so genocidal.

So the USA made sure that the best research universities in the world, are here in the USA.♥️👍🏿 If the US goes to an African country and mines 50% of the oil or diamonds, the extraction is obvious. But less obvious if the US goes to Nigeria and recruits 50% of their top 20 science students. Part of the reason the extraction is harder to see, is that most of those top students are jumping up and down, and yelling "Extract me! Extract me! Mekka, shut up! Don't you dare mess this up for me! I'm trying to go to CalTech!" The system was working for everyone, except for the racists.

How a normal person would handle this passenger saying he can't get out:

👮🏻‍♂️: Please exit the vehicle.

🧔🏿‍♂️: I can't.

👮🏻‍♂️: Why not?

🧔🏿‍♂️: The inside door handle jammed when the driver crashed. Can you open it using the outside handle right in front of you? I'll happily exit the vehicle.

👮🏻‍♂️: If this door is jammed, then why don't you go out the other door then?

🧔🏿‍♂️: Um... you are holding my wrists?

👮🏻‍♂️: Ah! So if I let go of your wrists, you can use the other door?

🧔🏿‍♂️: Correct.

👮🏻‍♂️: Or if I open the door for you, you can get out?

🧔🏿‍♂️: Correct.

👮🏻‍♂️: Or if I let you open it from the outside for yourself?

🧔🏿‍♂️: Correct.

Live your values, even when those around you are being hateful. This isn't a complicated concept to understand. Bryce Harper has taken a very public stance against racism. Flaco Lopez has made public statements against racism too. They've both been attacked by their own fans for it. They both don't care. Because their principles are more important. ♥️👍🏿 Supposedly, USA loves to celebrate white Christian men that don't care what other people think, and that just speak their mind, even if they sometimes say the wrong thing. Then why don't we celebrate when they push in this direction?

Mbappé is not a transphobe. Celebrities get to go to the Cannes film festival. It's one of the perks. If you are not a transphobe and a famous transgender model has a conversation with you? You don't run away. Celebrities get to go to yacht parties. Another perk. If you are not a transphobe and you are lifting women onto a yacht? You also lift her onto the yacht. You don't lift all the cisgender women and refuse to lift her. A paparazzi photo of Mbappé lifting any of the women who are not transgender, is not as valuable as the one of him lifting the one woman who is. I don't know if Mbappé dates transgender women. And I don't care. It's none of my business. I do care that he was aware enough not to deny it. ♥️👍🏿

And here's the thing about their efforts to eliminate immigration, and cut US university funding for "efficiency 🤡": US Universities are not "over-subsidized." All of this was part of a multi-decade national defence and economic defense strategy to keep the USA 5 to 10 years ahead on technology. Maybe the best new physicist in the world is a white man from Philadelphia. Maybe it's an Indian woman from Hyderabad. Maybe it's a Black woman from Accra. Maybe it's an Asian woman from Seoul. It doesn't matter. The strategy was designed to have them decide they'd rather be here in the USA.

That would be much less bad than what really happened.

Many were forcibly drafted by the military, then sent to front lines to be canon fodder. The losses were staggering.

"In the United States…4 million are Black, and within 20 years will be 8 [million]… What is [to be] done with such Blacks, hated by the white race? Slavery is a parasite that the vegetation of English colonization has left attached to the leafy tree of freedom."

  • Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, later president of Argentina.

He implemented the military drafts that sent Black soldiers to die in mass casualty events in wars like the War of the Triple Alliance. That alone was ~30,000 deaths, disproportionately Black. There were only about 70,000 total Black people in the country at the time, so only about 35,000 men and boys of all ages.

Sarmiento also implemented the intentional segregation and healthcare neglect that lead to Black mass casualty events from preventable diseases like yellow fever and cholera.

Before Sarmiento, 1 in 3 people in Buenos Aires was Black. 33%. To give you an idea of what that feels like, that's Atlanta Georgia. Today, it's 1% Black. That's Boulder, Colorado.

Discussion of prison violence and SA
Andrew Tate is not being kept in the Secure Housing Unit (SHU) because he is a dangerous prisoner, or to punish him. He's being put there because prison administration puts all accused child sex offenders there automatically, so that they don't get stabbed. No, this post is not a glorification of violence. Prison gangs have a different code of acceptable behaviour than the rest of US society. It's an insult to the gang to have a child molester walking among them. According to many gang's rules, child molesters can't be allowed to "walk the yard." If the guards didn't put Tate in the SHU, a gang would stab him... then get mad at the prison administration, for putting them in the situation where this violent outcome was inevitable. The only smart move for the prison admin is to preemtively put Tate in the SHU. US prisons and jails are hell.

@sara@tkz.one I don't care if you think there is a "lot of debate" about racism. I care about the foolishness of the annoying replies I've had to deal with of Argentinians pretending that Blanqueamiento didn't happen. Please invite some of those debaters to come talk to their annoying countrymen and pull them out of my mentions. And no, I hope that you aren't all "well aware" of your own history. Not all of you. Because if a person did know, and they still argue with Black people like this denying clear facts of the anti-Black genocide? Then that person is both annoying and a bad person. And no, people don't hate an entire country because of a 'TikTok trend." People hate genocide deniers that worry more about their own feelings than about the racism that their fellow countrymen spew around the world. If a German person denied the Holocaust, then said, "Well, I just don't want people to hate Germany because of a TikTok trend!🤡" You would similarly recognize this as trash behaviour. Don't be trash.

That's the same rate as Atlanta Georgia. Within a few decades, Buenos Aires was 1% Black. That's the same as Boulder Colorado. Today Buenos Aires is still only 1% Black. By comparison, Oslo Norway is 9% Black. Had Blanqueamiento failed, the people of Argentina and the people of Brazil would look much more similar. For example, São Paulo is 37% Black.

Discussion of prison violence and SA
In many US prisons and jails, you have a choice to go GP (general population) or PC (protective custody). Most people will choose to go GP, because of the stigma associated with going PC, and because in many places, PC can effectively mean solitary confinement 20+ hours a day. Keeping the inmates isolated from each other is how they try to ensure their physical safety. If you are in GP, you are housed with lots of generally normal Black, Hispanic, and White people there for drugs, and a few hyper violent people there for truly horrific acts of violence. If you are in PC, you are housed with a combination of child molesters, snitches, people with unmanaged mental health issues, and people that are violent on a level that defies all description, including mass killers for organized crime. Because of this, most people don't choose PC. Your arrest record has your charges. Some charges are tolerated in jail, and some are "bad charges," like child sex abuse. If you get a new cellmate, and your cellmate has bad charges? Then it is your responsibility to take off on them. If you do not, then others in GP might take off on you for not fulfilling your responsibility to take off on your cellmate. It's all bad. The most common way for prison authorities to avoid this violent situation, is to not give people with bad charges a choice. They are automatically assigned to the SHU.

@CuriousMagpie@beige.party Ah, you might have the other one: Thallassemia. Both Thallassemia and Sickle Cell are hemoglobin mutations that are mostly okay and provide some protection against malaria if you just have the trait (gene from one parent), but are really bad if you have the disease (gene from both parents). Thallassemia is from non-Africans usually North of the Mediterranean. Sickle cell is from Africans usually South of the Mediterranean. Sicilians, ancient Greeks, Spaniards, Moroccans, Algerians, Egyptians, and some Turkish groups, are populations that can carry both genes. And double whammy: if you have one Sickle Cell gene from one parent, and one Thallassemia gene from the other, you get the downsides of both, but none of the Malaria protect benefits.🤷🏿‍♂️ The combo disease, called Sickle-Beta Thallassemia is not fun. Many North African families get screened for both genes before starting a family.

@soldan@rebel.ar 😂 LOL! The irony of a guy getting mad that I'm not talking about US racism, in a thread where I explicitly said that US racism is worse. My account is pretty much wall to wall criticism of US racism. I've said on here many times that the US is the most racist country on earth, and that number two is not particularly close. But if you think that means that I won't point out that Afro-Latino Argentinians are still mad that the country ethnically cleansed its Black people, you're mistaken. I don't care about you. I care about the 1% of Afro-Latino Argentinians that are left, and I care about the white and Mestizo Argentinians that don't try and make excuses for trash racist behaviour. Blanqueamiento and importing nazis was a harm that Argentinians did decades ago. But your cope and denial, and Argentinians defense of their most racist, trash, classless football stars and politicians, is happening today. No one likes racists or genocide deniers. Instead of talking at me, try listening to an Afro-Latino professor in Argentina, who will make more time for your nonsense than I will.

Ah, all these Argentinians mad that I read books written by the Afro-Latino Argentinians that tell racist Argentinians that they suck, vs read the books written by the fascist Argentinians that pretend that "We don't have racism, because we don't have any Black people."

You can get as mad as you want. I said what I said.

What you can't say, is that:

  • Blanqueamiento was not an explicit government policy of Argentina. Because it was.
  • Blanqueamiento did not decimate the Black community. Because it did.

Saying that there are still Black people in Argentina today does not minimize the genocide anymore than saying that there are still Jewish people in Germany, or saying that there are still native Americans in California.
