6 Dr. Seuss books won't be published anymore because they portray people in 'hurtful and wrong' ways
Six Dr. Seuss books will no longer be published because they "portray people in ways that are hurtful and wrong," the business that preserves the author's legacy said.www.cnn.com
So because some of his writings/illustrations back in the 1920's had some "racist and anti-semitic" themes, they're throwing out more recent books. Funny how they've been fine for decades, but only just now have become offensive. Ridiculous.
Oh jeez. Another ethnic “purity” movement.A new “autonomous zone” has popped up in Austin, Texas:
AUSTIN, Texas — A black liberation autonomous zone is forming in Austin, which is the Texas State Capitol. The developers of the city’s “sovereign citizen” collective reject state authority to “protect Black liberation and prosperity,” according to their published information.
“On Sunday, February 14th, 400+1’s L1 Collective led an eleven mile car procession around the perimeter of what is now 400+1 protected territory, renaming the area Orisha Land, and rejecting the state’s authority within it,” the group has written on its website.
“400 + 1 is a framework constructed to achieve and protect Black liberation and prosperity. This construct encourages diversity in skill and passion among its members while developing a unified ideology. 400 + 1 acknowledges the necessity of building upon the triumphs of our ancestors while critically analyzing the mistakes of the past. Ours is a youth-driven movement that envisions sovereignty as the vehicle to a freedom that has yet to be experienced by the African Diaspora,” according to fourhundredandone.com.
Orisha Land is a zone in East Austin. The 11 mile perimeter is formed by Manor Rd., 51st Street, Springdale Rd., 7th Street, I-35, Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., and Franklin St., according to the group’s map.
“Jordan’s Place, the capital of Orisha Land and formerly known as Rosewood Park, is located at 2300 Rosewood Avenue, on the side of the park closest to Pleasant Valley,” according to the website.
“Jordan’s Place” is named in memory of Jordan Walton who reportedly died in an officer-involved shooting on Feb. 10, according to the website.
The group says it is “specifically for the Black unhoused population; claiming and defending the park in a show of resistance against anti-Black violence, the gentrification of East Austin, and the state’s antagonism of those in Austin who are without housing.”
The group says, “Orisha Land is a component of 400+1’s broader #MartialtheBlock campaign, an effort to reclaim Black communities” due to their perceptions of injustice.
Moreover, “Martial the Block is a call to action that implores Black communities to reclaim the power of the people by imposing the law of the vanguard,” the website says.
“Under the law of the vanguard, revolutionary law, police are abolished, defanged, and held accountable for the war crimes committed against oppressed people,” they claim.
Furthermore, under their revolutionary law, the following rules apply:
The group repeatedly mentions some form of “destabilizing” governance.
- “There is no private property and food is grown on every lawn.”
- “The health and safety of members of our society are prioritized over profit always, but especially during global health crises and natural disasters.”
- “Reproductive equity means freedom from the exploitation of wage labor, sex free of stigma and constraint, free and accessible abortion, a right to pleasure flowing wild and uninhibited, and safe, happy, power-balanced child rearing.”
- “Direct democracy reigns supreme and the space for the corruption of true democratic principles is eliminated.”
- “The Earth can breathe again and balance returns to the Universe.”
“400+1’s movement strategy is three-pronged. We exist to build a revolutionary vanguard, destabilize systems of oppression, and build alternatives to which Black folx can flee, build capacity, and become revolutionaries themselves.”
AND…
“Along the way to our liberated future, we will solidify a revolutionary vanguard dedicated to building alternatives and destabilizing oppressive institutions.”
The website also mentions “resistance.”
“Along the way to our liberated future, we will establish Black intentional living communities at which the Black masses can learn, heal, celebrate, and prepare to resist.”
Fine. You're on your own. Shut off electricity, water, cell phone service, internet service, etc. and let us know how you're getting along in a few weeks. Best of luck!A new “autonomous zone” has popped up in Austin, Texas:

As poetic as that justice is, they don’t have any rights to the property. They’ve stolen it. Roll in the armor and take it back, and prosecute the perpetrators as vigorously as they’re prosecuting the Capitol rioters. Every one of them.Fine. You're on your own. Shut off electricity, water, cell phone service, internet service, etc. and let us know how you're getting along in a few weeks. Best of luck!
That's probably what the people of New Harmony said after a couple of years.God help us.....
God-God help us.....

No, no no, no no.So, is this an insurrection or not?
And they're going to need even more money for all those fatherless babies that result from all that wild and uninhibited sex. Well, assuming that at least some of it is between men and women.No, no no, no no.
Insurrections come only from the right.
This is a joyous celebration of culture and Socialist ideals. The Federal government must immediately send millions of dollars to support this noble expression of joint ownership of everything (notice there is no private property) and free sex with "pleasure flowing wild and uninhibited." It sounds like the free sex is pretty important to them.
Yes. It's an insurrection.So, is this an insurrection or not?
