According to the NIV of the Old Testament,

the “Battle of Jericho” = G-d commanded Israelites to do a genocide.

“They devoted the city to the Lord and destroyed with the sword every living thing in it—men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys.”

Bible Gateway passage: Joshua 6 - New International Version

Now the gates of Jericho were securely barred because of the Israelites. No one went out and no one came in. Then the LORD said to Joshua, “See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with it...

Canada still practices eugenics. A few years back a FN woman had a baby and was told if she wanted to take it home she had to have a hysterectomy.
This is NOT an old practice that ended.

Indigenous women in Canada forcibly sterilized decades after other rich countries stopped

Indigenous leaders say the country has yet to fully reckon with its troubled colonial past — or put a stop to a decades-long practice that is considered a type of genocide.

This is the BARE MINIMUM.

I’m celebrating too, but I want to be clear about where many people stand regarding trans rights:

FULL RIGHTS, full stop. No compromise with bigots.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Hundreds of Haitians came to Greeley, Colorado, looking for a place to stay and a good job at JBS, the largest meat producer in the world.

Instead, they found squalid housing and an unsafe workplace.

Now, they’re being deported.

Haitian immigrants went to Colorado for the promise of jobs. What they found is being called human trafficking.

Remora House DC 🎃 @remorahousedc.bsky.social · 22h

While evictions rise, the city is also cutting funding to 1) rent relief 2) street outreach 3) permanent supportive housing & other housing voucher programs & 4) shelters

If we’re talking purely money, it costs more to provide appropriate housing support for someone the longer they are unhoused.

Abigail Higgins @abigailhiggins.bsky.social · 1d

Evictions in DC hit record levels last year, with 1,869 households removed from their homes. We don't have final numbers for this year yet but avg. monthly evictions are the highest they’ve been in six years. New investigation from @51st.news @streetsensedc.bsky.social 51st.news/record-evict...

I observe people on here with obviously diametrically opposed perspectives argue & wonder wtf is the point? Nobody is changing the others' minds. Wasting time that could be used building with like minds to formulate a plan. I guess they just like arguing & attention (of any kind). 😩

utopia deferred @utopia-defer.red · 23h

anyone else notice that the west took a turn for the worse once the concept of signaling one’s own social virtue became derogatory, almost as if cynically deriding all displays of charity and good will is indicative of a deeply cynical and nihilistic society capable of collaborating in genocide

her advocacy for Palestinians doesn't bother me nearly as much as she is so desperately doing all this as an actual act of transparent virtue signaling, to fill the absence she has in depth of character
