Reading "public activity" on Diaspora, I get a big sense of

How things have changed, and so quickly!

The #Republicans fought a war to end #slavery, but now they're the Bad Guys.
The #Democrats founded the #KKK and battled against #civil-rights, but now they're The Good Guys.

It went from right-vs-wrong to us-vs-them.

Way too much about politics on this Diaspora. I know everything is political for some reason, but it shouldn't be that way.

Capitalism needed the concept of race in order to use it to divide the European so-called white indentured servants from the African so-called black slaves of the US. It is on the basis of needing the division of these groups that had begun to coalesce together and come together to fight the property owners that the concept of racism is created.

’Jewish Schindler’ Who is Rescuing Young Women and Girls from Islamic State Sex Slavery
New York Times on Sex Slavery in Islam: “the Quran not only gave [ISIS] the right to rape — it condoned and encouraged it”
Even into the 1980s, one could see ads in Saudi newspapers offering to “trade a hardworking Indian girl” for a “late-model American car.” Fast forward to the present. A report by the International Labour Organization (ILO) was just released that found an estimated 50 million people living in modern slavery conditions in 2021, including 3.3 million children. Of these, 28 million are trapped in forced labor and 22 million in forced marriage. All this reminds us that in Islam it is deemed licit to hold slaves. Muhammad himself bought, sold, and owned slaves, which has made the practice permissible for Muslims ever since, for Muhammad was the Perfect Man (al-insan al-kamil) and Model of Conduct (uswa hasana).

In the era of the expansion of the United States, driven by the doctrine of "manifest destiny", Walker organized unauthorized military expeditions into Mexico and Central America with the intention of establishing slave-holding colonies. Such an enterprise was known at the time as "filibustering".
.... He took control of the Nicaraguan government and in July 1856 set himself up as the country's president.

Walker's regime was recognized as the legitimate government of Nicaragua by US President Franklin Pierce.... However, Walker antagonized the powerful Wall Street tycoon Cornelius Vanderbilt... The British Empire saw Walker as a threat to its interests...

As ruler of Nicaragua, Walker re-legalized slavery and threatened the independence of neighboring Central American republics.

Surprising local court decision in #Ukraine questioning the legality of military #conscription

Late in August, a Ukrainian court set a dangerous precedent for the Ukrainian government in a ruling that challenged the very legality of conscription and martial law in the country. On August 23, the Zinkivskyi district court in the Poltava region issued a highly unusual verdict against a draft dodger, equating Ukraine’s conscription law to a form of #slavery.
