If you think about it, Christianity wasn’t meant to leave the land of Palestine. The only reason it left was because of the Roman Empire modifying the story a bit so that the Roman soldiers weren’t actually the perpetrators/bad guys.

Of course, but what value do human rights have against the laws of god That religious freedom stuff they only like to use in defense of *themselves*, and in defense of their oppression By denying their right to oppress, you are now oppressing *them*, so who's the real villain?
Problem is, at least around here, religious pressure is a stronger force even than capitalism Of course, if you can use one to justify the other, excellent But when they collide with each other, religion is usually what wins here

To further clarify, PR statehood is fantasy. I just like to beat fascists with their own words. 🙃

he ran against the full force of the zionist establishment and won. unbelievable victory
El-Sayed: "If all Mike Rogers got is that 'his name is Abdul, and my name is Mike,' you're gonna be surprised how many people are like, 'Yeah, but that's the Abdul who wants to bring down the price of my groceries and make sure I got healthcare. So yeah, I like Abdul over your Mike from Florida.'"
Doesn't know what a fucking plantain is wtf
Of course Politico would try and frame Dr Abdul El-Sayed's amazing victory over AIPAC and corporate money as a disappointment. Legacy media is dying for a reason.
I think they might die from a heart attack if they saw a mofongo
Well maybe it's spending so much time lobbying Congress for statehood you could actually try to fix it

The Fifth Dentist @fifthdentist.bsky.social Mexico has a female president. Puerto Rico has a (terrible) woman governor. Latin macho culture is no match for the extreme misogyny of puritanism, which has infested US culture for centuries.
suzette sommer@suzette.bsky.social · yesterdayLook around the world, at the many countries and different cultures that have elected women presidents and premiers, had queens and women prime ministers. We are the exception. SUPPOSEDLY a “modern” nation. In REALITY, we are NOT.

Mi gente. Corporate greed cannot come at the cost of our communities. When wealth uproots the many to line the pockets of the few, we must demand true sovereignty. Free Puerto Rico from colonialism. 🇵🇷✊🏾🇵🇷✊🏾 #FreePuertoRico #BlueskyPR #PuertoRico #BorikénLibre #PR #GringoGoHome #PNPCorrupcion
"Why does Spain have enclaves" Why do the French and the Dutch have Caribbean islands? Why does America have Puerto Rico, American Samoa and Guam? Colonialism, friends.

Mi gente. PNP/PPD aren't political parties. They are dual branches of a single corrupt machine. Two sides of the exact same coin, taking turns holding the shovel while Puerto Rico gets buried under debt, decay, and broken promises. 🇵🇷✊🏾🇵🇷✊🏾 #FreePuertoRico #BlueskyPR #PuertoRicoLibre #PNPCorrupcion
Now do Puerto rico , Guam and the US virgin islands
Puerto Rico should be free and independent. That is NOT up for discussion. Signed, a Boricua. #PuertoRicoLibre #FreePuertoRico
Because we invaded them? suppressed them? impoverish them? Because our tourists are ignorant of their situation and sometimes disrespectful? Because they see the whitewash of our unrepentant colonial history and cannot abide it? Just guesses on my part, but it isn't so hard to understand, really.
