Governments do not deserve the benefit of the doubt. The history of the American state— not the conspiracy theorist history, but the mainstream, documented history, supported with reams of declassified documentation, eyewitness testimony, and physical evidence— is the history of bad behavior, lawlessness, and deceit. One of the weird aspects of American intellectual life is that its the people who distrust the government who are treated like cranks, when we have a mountain of recent evidence that shows us why it should be the other way around.

The cause of racism is often fear of the unknown - lack of knowledge about other cultures. Travel, explore and learn - open your mind.

I will ALWAYS, ALWAYS, reblog this every time it comes up on my blog. This is the BEST statement, I’ve ever seen. 

I really love this. So many are dead-set on the view that people cannot better themselves but that simply isn’t true. Everybody deserves a second chance and everybody has the ability to better themselves. 

this is very true. We actually learned this in psychology. Its an actual thing.

Awesome!

This is an absolute crock of shit. Some of the most racist motherfuckers in the world are the richest and most well traveled.

Also, it is not the job of me or any other PoC on this earth to make white people “not racist.” It’s on them to stop being racist as a motherfucker.

There’s so much other shit wrong with this damn cartoon but I don’t have the time or patience at the moment to get into it.

All of this is bullshit

OP you’re a fucking idiot

POCs do NOT, and I repeat, DO NOT exist so we can be some fucking storybook disney teachers to racist fucking white people

I know folks who have literally lived across the world and they’re STILL ignorant as fuck and racist as fucking hell

Miss me with the bullshit

I repeat: POCS are NOT there to make you unlearn your fucking racism, we are NOT objects, this comic is disgusting and wrong as fuck and if a fucking klansmen DOES want to go find himself by meeting people all around world I’ll gladly help him…

Find his way inside of a lion’s mouth

Enough with this bullshit 

Edit: The last time racist white folks decided to “find themselves” and “see the world” they fucking wrecked most of it because of little things called COLONIALISM AND IMPERIALISM YOU SLACK JAWED NEANDERTHALS GOOD FUCKING GOD I HATE THIS FUCKING COMIC

If Snowden had surrendered himself to U.S. authorities, he almost certainly would have faced charges that carry penalties of decades in prison. He might have rationally feared being subject to years of pretrial detention and the kind of degrading treatment Manning faced. And if he had chosen to fight the charges, he would have risked spending decades in prison if he lost.

Germany gives couples in civil unions same tax benefits as married couples

gaywrites:

The top court in Germany ruled on Thursday that same-sex couples in civil unions must receive the same tax benefits as different-sex married couples.

The court ruled that treating these couples differently violates the country’s guarantee of equal protection, inevitably leading to discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. (Well, yeah.)

Married couples in Germany are able to jointly declare their taxable incomes, which can significantly lower their overall tax burden especially when one partner has higher pay. The rule costs the government annually about 15.5 billion euros ($20 billion), although it estimates that extending the same right to the country’s some 27,000 civil unions will only add about 30 million euros to the bill.

The court acknowledged that married couples enjoy special privileges because the partners also accept a strong responsibility for each other, including financial, but it argued that the civil union implies the same duties and responsibilities for gay partners.

This is actually a huge deal. The financial element of marriage inequality affects millions of people, and Germany has taken a huge step for the rest of the world by acting on it. The U.S. needs to follow suit.
