Circassian, Scottish, Jordanian, and not overly aggressive unless you're a fash

Kronvold’s daughter Zammi was taken away from her when she was two hours old and placed in foster care in Nov 24 after Kronvold was subjected to a FKU (parental competence) tests. At the time she was told that the test was to see if she was “civilized enough”. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

At an older age I stood by my father's grave and I spoke to him like I had never had the chance to when he was alive. I told him that being older now myself, I understood. I understood, but did not forgive, his faults. I see them in myself now, but I hope and wish to do better

I think a lot of what I wanted to do when learning Kabard and Adyghe languages properly, so beyond what my family speak now, was in large part just to shout out a big fuck off to Russia and their attempts to end us. To end us not just as a population, but as a culture and a people.

Good. End international football. I have no care nor want for it. I hate it. I am not a nationalist. I watch my local team, the team I grew up with a passion for. I don't care which nationality they are from, they put on green and white hoops and I love them for it.

I get a little annoyed by the coverage of the proposed sell-off of the World Cup. They’re not just planning to sell it off. They’re planning to sell it off *to the Trump family*. That should be up front and central.

Bless the wee cotton socks of the Bolshevik writers who could, talking about the Caucasus, skip easily from "We must free them from Imperialism", to, "This isn't the anti-imperialism we expected, why hate us?, to, "Kill them all, or deport them, all we did was try to save the savages!"

Still wild reading Soviet justifications for Russian colonial expansion into Central Asia. This one is from a 1963 book by Soviet-Kyrgyz historian Begimaaly Jamgyrchinov.

Несомненно, стремление киргизов к сближению с русскими было правильной ориентацией, так как Россия по сравнению с остальными, переживающими в то время в известной мере хозяйственно-политический и культурный застой государствами Востока, имела несравненно более развитую экономику и передовую культуру, а в военном отношении была более могущественной, способной устойчиво обеспечить внешнюю безопасность киргизских племен, а также дать им твердое внутреннее управление.

They say they are protecting women and children !! Meet Rangers fan Alan Miller. Miller carried out a campaign of domestic violence against his partner leaving her black and blue. He stood among hundreds of “protectors” yesterday unchallenged.

One thing throughout this war I will always maintain - Crimea is Crimea - It is not Ukraine, it is not Russia, it is what it is, Tatar. Both Ukraine and Russia cooperated in the deportations, that's not forgotten

I was born Muslim, that shall never leave me. But I am Circassian, pagan by nature, I know the names of the gods of nature and of men, I know the names of the spirits of the trees, they sing songs to me I can never forget. It is time others learned to live with nature as it is and not combat it

I'd love to be able to mix in with other accents, but I'm from Glasgow, so unfortunately, even when I speak other languages, it comes out with a Glasgow accent. It's like a dog with a bad cough, there's no getting around how it sounds

People are making fun of AOC for having a slight southern accent while speaking in Memphis but they clearly don’t know the pain of habitually and unconsciously imitating the speaking style of the people around you

I'm not sure why people place their hope of anti-racism on the Brit Labour party - They were founded on a similar basis to most trade unions in the UK, that of protecting native workers against imported labor - They are born of racism, helped create it, and they can fuck off

Don't ask me to celebrate someone's death - I won't. But don't ask me to pretend someone was great just because they are dead. That is asking me to celebrate the horrors they are responsible for

I love Ubykh dance and song - The loss of them as a distinct Caucasus people, though they are still part of Circassian community by family, is a loss I hope is never repeated. The modern world needs more dance and joy, and Ubykh have that in abundance.

On a YouTube post of an Armenian song "Love from Türkiye🇹🇷❤️🇦🇲" Unexpected, but you could at least take the time to say, "Sorry about the genocide thing"

One clearly underreported aspect of the yearly hatefest is that a lot of people straight up just leave Northern Ireland for Ireland entirely because it’s simply too dangerous to be non-Orange. Several people in Belfast have told me this. (Corrected from earlier post)

It's not just that I hate the world cup for it's bad football - It's really bad - It's more that I support my local team or teams I support, because it's not about the game, it's about the people I support Celtic, FC St. Pauli, Lajee Celtic, because people matter more than nations

New video drops tomorrow at noon - The US Government's 140 Year War on Anarchists The Prairieland sentences set a dangerous precedent, but this persecution is nothing new. The American state has been waging war on anarchists for 140 years.
