Nelson Mandela: It is perhaps difficult for white South Africans, with an ingrained prejudice against communism, to understand why experienced African politicians so readily accept communists as their friends. But to us the reason is obvious. Theoretical differences, amongst those fighting against oppression, is a luxury which cannot be afforded. What is more, for many decades communists were the only political group in South Africa who were prepared to treat Africans as human beings and as ...

i think social media is a bit stressful because every sentence i write i am imagining between 2 and 5 random people taking various issues with what im saying, or misinterpreting something because i wasnt precise enough, or just that a textual medium isnt nuanced enough. i feel like i wanna put disclaimers in every one of my toots. if i wrote in a way that was defensive enough to prevent all misunderstandings it'd be unreadably verbose and completely dilute any point i was making though

White folks, well... not so much...

We don't seem to be able to enforce the important stuff in government.

By how much must he be exaggerating for you to still be alive when he decelerates, taking time dilation into account?
