In 20 years this will be history, in 20 years the United States will look back on what’s going on now, and they will say “We were like that before, but we’ve changed! We don’t do things like that anymore”

It is extremely important that we understand they’re lying, it’s extremely important that we don’t forgive them. We can’t forget the atrocities and genocides the US has been apart of, it’s failures to provide a safe, welcoming country.

The newer generations will learn about what happened in palestine, they will be taught that the protests worked, that eventually Biden did call for a ceasefire, that peace always works.

What we don’t know is if they’ll be lying.

In March 2021, sheriffs in Etowah county, Alabama, arrested Ashley Caswell on accusations that she’d tested positive for methamphetamine while pregnant and was “endangering” her fetus.

Caswell, who was two months pregnant at the time, became one of a growing number of women imprisoned in the county in the name of protecting their “unborn children”.

But over the next seven months of incarceration for “chemical endangerment” in the Etowah county detention center (ECDC), Caswell was denied regular access to prenatal visits, even as officials were aware her pregnancy was high-risk due to her hypertension and abnormal pap smears, according to a lawsuit filed on Friday against the county and the sheriff’s department. She was also denied her prescribed psychiatric medication and slept on a thin mat on the concrete floor of the detention center for her entire pregnancy.

In October, when her water broke and she pleaded to be taken to a hospital, her lawyer says, officials told her to “sleep it off” and “wait until Monday” to deliver – two days away.

During nearly 12 hours of labor, staff gave her only Tylenol for her pain, the suit says, allegedly telling her to “stop screaming”, to “deal with the pain” and that she was “not in full labor”. Caswell lost amniotic fluid and blood and was alone and standing up in a jail shower when she ultimately delivered her child, according to the complaint and her medical records. She nearly bled to death, her lawyers say.

After she was taken to a hospital, she was diagnosed with placental abruption, a condition in which the placenta separates from the wall of the uterus and the fetus is deprived of oxygen, meaning there was a risk of stillbirth. The baby survived, but Caswell was immediately separated from her newborn.

This is what Israel is doing to Gaza

This isn’t some post-apocalyptic movie scene.

This is what Israel is doing to Gaza.

And US tax dollars are paying for it.

This has nothing to do with fighting Hamas.

Israel wants to make Gaza unlivable and ultimately expel Palestinians.

Being an Eastern European/Central-Eastern European/post-Soviet fan of the Hunger Games, I have to say that it really rubs me the wrong way when US-American/other Western fans throw a tantrum when u tell them that u see similarities between how Panem functions and how other empires than the US function, too. Like, even in criticism of imperialism, everything has to revolve solely around Americans.

I do not mean to say that Suzanne Collins did not write “The Hunger Games” trilogy and “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” without taking inspiration from her geopolitical, economic and cultural context, because she obviously did, and those elements are very obviously visible in the story.

But those are not the only ones.

Another very obvious inspiration for Panem was the Roman Empire, and surprise, surprise! There are more than one European/Western empire that took/takes inspiration from Ancient Rome. Britain, France, Spain, also Russia, just to name a few. That means that people from different regions can have different associations when reading different texts of culture and that is perfectly normal. It does not mean that they are manipulated by the goddamn CIA if they don’t have the same associations as Americans while reading it 😆

And for instance, for me as an Eastern European, the first association I had while reading THG trilogy for the first time, for instance, was the USSR and modern-day Russia, simply because I come from this geopolitical context and I know it better.

Ceasar Flickerman even reminded me of several modern Russian propagandists, including Vladimir Solovyov.

The political and economic structure of Panem reminded me of the way the modern-day Russian Federation functions, with monumental Moscow at its center, and oblasts and republics basically serving as feudal provinces for the production of goods and natural resources. Regions and republics in which people often lack access to basic goods and improvements.

Heck, even President Snow very often reminded me of people like Joseph Stalin and Vladimir Putin, with his pretending to represent the people only to hold a tight grip on the state as an authoritarian/dictatorial leader.

Does that deny the American (or America-inspired) elements in THG universe? Of course not. But it certainly does not mean that others should not also see the empires that abused them and their ancestors in Suzanne Collin’s novels.

Because some elements are just common, dare I even say, universal, in many empires.

The US Senate posted a little outreach survey anyone can finish regarding issues ranging from the USA’s NATO membership, to a cease-fire in Palestine.

So if you’d like to fill this out to tell the senate your thoughts on Israel’s ongoing genocide against Palestinians you can find that here:

But the thing that’s sending me is …

Remember when the biggest argument against communism for the past 20 or so years was that it didn’t work and there were no examples of it

And now congress is back out here like “Communism works and is a threat to US Capitalism Right Now.”

The wording on this entire survey is actually so wild, but I digress. You’ll see it when you see it.

Note: I am aware there are a lot of negative associations, I thought about not including those, but then I also thought the US earned it. Historical reparation.

But that doesn't mean I think the US is all bad! If you have nice stuff to talk about it, share here and I'll reblog!

The problem with calls for Hamas to return the hostages is that the hostages are the only leverage Hamas has, and the only leverage it can/could ever POSSIBLY have, over Israel right now, cuz the people running Israel right now have made it more than clear that they care nothing for Palestinian lives and little for how the world sees them, because the US has for so long insulated them against punishment for their crimes.

So, returning the hostages for anything other than an end to the butchery in Gaza, guaranteed by a reliable third party with the capacity and willingness to ENFORCE an end to that butchery upon Israel(which: I don't even know is a thing that exists? Like: the US can smash the Israeli military but it won't, and I dont know if there's any other world power with both the military might and range to stop an Israeli offensive), is next to useless for them. It'd be handing Israel carte-blanche to just go right back to genocide once the hostages were handed over.

Random Fact #6,542

A century before Rosa Parks, there was Elizabeth Jennings

In 1854, she refused to get off of a streetcar that only allowed white passengers.

She was arrested. She sued (and won), and her case led to the eventual desegregation of NYC's public transit.
