I rly try not to intervene in these kinds of convos (see also: salsa) but we need to stop trying to Do Nationalism with black diasporic syncretic music created under conditions of heavy colonialism and migration. Each place mentioned here played a crucial and different role.
STOP SAYING REGGAETON WAS BIRTHED ANYWHERE BUT PUERTO RICO. THAT GENRE IS NOT JAMAICAN OR PANAMANIAN. IT IS BORICUA.

“I don’t want to pay for other people’s healthcare!”
This is something I often see people say in opposition to single-payer healthcare.
Thing is, if you have health insurance, you’re paying for other people’s healthcare AND the insurance company is taking some for themselves.

my theory is that people think of NPR as left-wing because it has prominent arts coverage

NPR has a show called “Left, Right, and Center” and the “Left” pundit, like, opposes single-payer healthcare lol

Yes, AND also Israel's actions have led to more anti-semitism. Its existence as an apartheid ethnostate--in addition to decimating Palestinian life--actually makes jews less safe. Israel fails at its main political goal.

“When we changed the definition of antisemitism to include things that weren’t antisemitic, we found a giant increase in antisemitism.”

Not trying to create a pile-on here. But let's talk about why something might still be made in unethical conditions even though it bears a "made in USA" tag. 🧵

Feds indicted @NYCMayor. Now it's our turn to stop his power grab by voting NO on Props #2 through #6 and YES on #1 on the November 5th ballot. NYers deserve better. #nix2through6 #boybye #nyc #EricAdams

Unlike my mamí, I retired myself from Latinx Heritage Month panels bc if one more person asked me “when did I discover that I was Black,” I was going to flip a table 😅
That narrative needs to die. Majority of Black folks in LatAm know they’re Black. Blackness isn’t confused

“why do so many ‘health workers’ have Hezbollah Pagers?” because Hezbollah Pager isn’t a real thing. because that’s what happens supply chains are contaminated. just because the propaganda needs you to be very stupid to believe it doesn’t mean you’re obliged to become that stupid

Heartbroken doesn’t cut it. The subway should be safe and free. The NYPD committed a mass shooting over $2.90, now Gregory Depelche is brain dead. We need to lift people out of poverty, not criminalize it. The NYPD put every person on the train in danger. NYC needs care, not cops
