William Frank Jr., born on this day in 1931, was an indigenous environmental leader and treaty rights activist known for his use of the “fish-in”, a civil disobedience tactic used to win indigenous rights to natural resources.
A Nisqually tribal member, Frank is particularly known for his grassroots campaign for fishing rights on the tribe’s Nisqually River. Frank was arrested more than 50 times in the “Fish Wars” of the 1960s and 1970s because of his intense dedication to the treaty fishing rights cause.
The tribal struggle was taken to the courts in “U.S. v. Washington”, with federal judge George Hugo Boldt issuing a ruling in favor of the native tribes in 1974. The “Boldt Decision” established the 20 treaty Indian tribes in western Washington as co-managers of the salmon resource with the State of Washington, and re-affirmed tribal rights to half of the harvestable salmon returning to western Washington.
I hope you nerds have a great March. 
Remember no crackers
Is there a reason Michael Jackson fans are so hyper defensive of him? I know every celebrity has this to varying degrees but with Michael it’s cult-like how often they’ll shoot down even the smallest criticism so aggressively.
Prolly cause there’s even more damning evidence of his child abuse since he was on the epstein files.
“he was trying to protect the kids”
I am most likely gonna get an answer on whether or not I got this job Monday. They said that if I didn’t get an answer yesterday, then it would probably be on Monday.
I felt like the interview went pretty well. I actually prepared and wrote down some solid answers preemptively, and I was actually able to make good use of what I wrote down. I also wrote down 3 engaged questions that make me look like I actually give a shit about the job, so that would probably give them a good impression.
There were also quite a lot of Black people there, but the people I was interviewing with were honkies.
I hope you get the job 🙏

sometimes I look back to the start of the SMO in Ukraine and compare the reactions to nowadays, this time I’m remembering how in the first months a Ukrainian guy cooked bones he found inside of a tank and ate it, later turned out to be an Ukrainian tank, remember how reddit’s reaction was to pictures of dead Russian conscripts, how they explained their depravity with fighting back as their logic. Then I compare it to Iran and Gaza that after 3 years of this genocide, the only group committing atrocities are the zionists and the Americans, I saw no Gazan climb up a Merkava and eat a human, I saw no resistance fighter shoot up a school. the resistance, Hamas, PIJ, PFLP, IRGC, Hizbullah, Ansarallah all get endlessly condemned even by “leftists”, the spineless response “yes they’re fighting israel but the resistance commits crimes” and some clowns that even consider the martyrs and heroes to be akin to Netenyahu and Trump.
We as colonial subjects do not get the privilege of excuses to our actions, especially for our good deeds. Our enemy is a demon, if you don’t stand firm against it, don’t stand firm against the ones fighting it and claim to be righteous.
I still can’t get over the fact that US vets still call themselves “antifa” for being vets. Apparently a war criminal who kills brown children overseas can be hailed as an “antifa hero” by the ignorant and massively privileged, but Palestinians who are literally putting their lives on the line to directly fight back against apartheid and settler colonialism need to constantly validate the feelings of these pricks or else they’ll get called “terrorists”. Fucked up world we live in when mass-murdering monsters are revered as saints and the brave are demonized for fighting for their literal right to live
"I don’t want to sacrifice anymore American lives overseas"
Too many “leftists” fall for this shit. Right now I see some selfproclaimed “socialist” pages amplifying everything Joe Kent is saying about this war without second thought. The guy went off to Iraq and said he didn’t want to keep seeing troops being sent to other countries. That he supported Trump because he’s “antiwar”.
Yet he stuck with him through all of the belligerent actions of his first administration and most recently his continued support of the genocide of Palestinians, the farcical Ukrainian War, the bombardment of Nigeria, the bombardment of fishing boats of the coasts of Venezuela and Colombia, and the kidnapping of Maduro. He only decided to stop supporting Trump when he started this war that is inflicting more pain on the US than he found tolerable. This isn’t someone that is seeing the light of antiimperialism. He’s some white supremacist that is sad that now someone is punching back hard enought to hurt the empire.
So fucking tired of this type of shit that social fascists think helps leftist causes.
“but every revolution had ex military members in it”, because usually they were conscripts,uneducated or barely active militaries. Ibrahim Traoré’s time in the military was spent fighting ISIS, Gamal Abdelnasser wasn’t deployed to kill kids in Somalia, Chavez never volunteered to commit a genocide. imagine if an SS volunteer who was a camp overseer one day said he wasn’t paid enough or that “I used to be with it but Hitler took it too far” would any communist accept him alive let alone elect him as a leader? would the PFLP accept an Abu Shabab member if he ran on “veterans first”?
I think it’s because they heard “WW2 veterans are antifa” and took it to mean any veteran from every other war is also antifa
Cryptid enthusiasts focus too much on Europe with mermaid sightings when all the modern and frequent sightings take place in the Caribbean and especially Haiti
why do cracKKKers have to exist and ruin the entire world and all of society for everyone else
I did not pass the CNA exam.
And, honestly, as upsetting as it sounds, I’m actually not even very upset specifically because I was kind of expecting it?
At least I have a job interview later today and one as a medical scribe on Monday (pays well, is long-term, and the office was really impressed by my 120 WPM typing speed, so there’s that.)
But there’s still a little part of me that’s like “Ouch”
- I hope the job interview goes well
Identity politics final boss
When will people understand that saying things like “Real men respect women” or “Real men aren’t afraid to show their emotions” is just “woke” toxic masculinity
We have gotten to a point where I see people, especially in the Black community, saying shit like “abusing and disrespecting women is what a feminine man does” or calling awful, sexist men “DL” as some sort of a corollary to this kind of shit
you’re actually gay if you’re homophobic type beat
I never read Christopher Dorner’s manifesto before but I’m glad I did now. It’s so good, there’s no such thing as justice and I hate pretending there’s a just path.
Shoutout to Hilldawg!
Work keeps coming up with BS problems for me to solve and I’m just like, I dunno man I’m just waiting for some resistance movement to pop off so I can quit and dedicate my life to that
Found this old screenshot. It was when my rizz level has reached 999 billionThe recent news of Cuba made me think of Haiti and how it was basically the Cuba of that era with the US being just as obsessed with crushing them.
Gotta start using this
emoji a lot to make up for the absence of vegeta :'(Where did he go?

He’s getting ready for the next season to show up
How many white “leftists” are basically just this guy? Community service… unless you’re brown, then I will murder you
It’s for the college money though so you can die happy!
Probably somewhere from a majority to a supermajority, judging by how many of them are invading my feed turning this dead murderer into some kind of victim. “But but but he was only an IT specialist!!!” Literal Nuremberg trial defense attorney type shit. One wonders how they find time to say this shit when they’re so busy calling genocide victims literally Hitler for hurting white Jewish feelings
Boy Scouts has always been a funnel into the military, that was its original founding purpose - to train boys to be ready for military service. That’s why it’s directly integrated into the US state, Eagle Scouts get automatic promotions upon enlisting. This was set up like a century ago.
Seems obvious on the face of it, and if that wasn’t enough even a cursory look at the history of scouting - just read what Baden-Powell wrote about it himself - would reveal it for what it is. And yet mentioning this to certain white “leftists” causes incredible levels of offense as if I’m personally destroying their childhood.
“But but but it’s just a fun outdoorsy program and all the flag stuff was just on the side!” Funny statement because former members of the hitler youth said the exact same thing almost word-for-word. Apparently it’s not indoctrination unless you’re being tied down to a chair and forced to watch Mel Gibson’s The Patriot on loop for 250 hours.
what do they think an IT specialist does in a military? literally “I just turn up the ovens I killed no one”
If Hitler had stuck to just killing nonwhites liberals would be calling Nazi Germany a “flawed democracy”
At this point, I wonder if they would even be calling it flawed
NY Post when anyone suggests helping the homeless
NY Post when it can use helping the homeless to make war criminals look like good people
Gotta wonder what “helping homeless youth” meant considering he jumped straight from that to murdering brown children. “You can’t kill our combatants after we bomb your country, that’s terrorism!”
lol @ bringing up him being in boy scouts as if I should care what this dipshit did before getting owned. He killed 200 kids and if Iran hadn’t stopped him he’d have killed 200 more.
I hope it was long, I hope he had time to piss and shit himself before it was over.
Hope this doesn’t start another
, the only thing the resident crackers here love more than whitewashing war criminals is Ziohran Copdani.
This legitimately pissed me tf off when I first saw it because I just KNOW that the shitlibs and chuds are now going to use this guy to do even more apologism for the US military, ad infinitum ad nauseam, just like they do with the “poverty draft” and “they were innocent smol beans who didn’t know what they were doing!” The fact that this guy signed up to kill brown people abroad is never even going to set in for so many people. This shit makes me so mad omg
they were innocent smol beans who didn’t know what they were doing!
“Uhh I didn’t know the military was for killing people” who tf do these pricks think they’re fooling?
poverty draft
Funny how this same sympathy isn’t extended to robbers and thieves who kill far less people
“Uhh look he was just a kid once” yeah so was everyone who has ever lived and ever will live, who cares?
“Uhh but he did community service” yeah the white supremacist death squad member? Remind me why I should care. What if Hitler did trash cleanup as a kid?
Funny how this same sympathy isn’t extended to robbers and thieves who kill far less people
I never really thought about it before but that’s a good point. I guess the fact that the military’s crimes are largely committed abroad rather than domestically is justification enough to worship them
“I break into people’s homes with weapons, threaten their families and rob their place, but the people are brown so it’s okay”
Womp womp. Wonder if there are community service opportunities in hell
I would simply not serve in the army of the 4th Reich but I guess I’m just built different
dead eagle scout who helped homeless youth was a member of a violent white supremacist organisation
A real “Der Sturmer article memorializing dead concentration camp guards with childhood Hitlerjugend photos” moment
Just because my place of worship host events for the idf and fundraises for the Idf and does birthrites for isreal and teaches kids to feel the strongly for isreal and sells land in the place being colonized doesn’t mean we are guilty parties in the genocide
