Assessment Of Associates Of The Second Inquisition Vol. I - FIRSTLIGHT [USA] [21-1-2023] 'FIRSTLIGHT (Acronym...? - El. B.) is an extension of the Second Inquisition originating from the United States as a joint effort between the ███████ ████████████ ██████ and ████████ ████████ ██████.

They are unique from the majority of their intergovernmental counterparts in the sense that their jurisdiction begins and ends ██████ █████ ███ ████████ ███████ unlike organizations such as the GRU's ███ or MI6's ████.

FIRSTLIGHT maintains a constant effort to suppress any evidence of their operations from both the public as can be expected of any organization that specializes in the occult and supernatural. However, a point of contention lies in the fact that the government of the United States is seemingly unaware of the existence of FIRSTLIGHT.'

I was going to put this in the tags BUT ACTUALLY FUCK IT

NAGPRA doesn't stop museums from digging in their heels over repatriation. Denver Art Museum has refused for years to return art and important cultural objects to the Tlingit and Haida clans to whom they rightfully belong.

“We’re not in the business of just giving away our collections,” [John Lukavic, DAM Native Arts collection curator] said. “Nobody is.” (Denver Post, April 8 2024.)

Applying pressure to these institutions is ABSOLUTELY necessary, because they have no reason to act with grace or humility, and Native nations are forced to work within the laws and framework of the US federal government, NOT their own sovereign laws. The same laws that were broken in order to steal these objects during colonization.

Went to the Aboriginal artifact exhibit in Chicago. And it’s interesting. How many blankets and masks and totem poles say ‘unknown source’, because every five seconds my mom would stop and point to something and say. “Pauline’s grandmother made that,” or, “That belongs to Mike’s family, I should call him” because. It’s all stolen

i’ve started babysitting for a VERY christian family which is great because they pay me a lot of money but as someone who was raised almost completely agnostic it’s kind of insane. the 2 year old keeps asking me to read her stories from the bible. (why are we reading david and goliath to a 2 year old????) the 5 year old told me today that he was going to bring his legos to heaven with him. he also has repeatedly told me that the lego spaceships he builds are stronger than jesus. (not sure what to say to that. do i deny it??? are things allowed to be stronger than jesus??) had to stop myself mid sentence today because i almost told them im not going to heaven which would DEFINITELY have caused several meltdowns. they’re also both completely fascinated by my nose ring

People online (white) will create so many conspiracy theories that just boil down to "Asians aren't complete human beings with their own thoughts and autonomy" like maybe Chinese people are just going about their day to day life. Maybe a video of a North Korean person like chilling is just a person chilling, who isn't going to power down like a robot once the video is over. Stop being a fucking creep.
