I posted about #mmiwg2s yesterday and it had zero traffic.

1500 plus followers and none of you gives a flying fuck about Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women Girls and 2-Spirited people. You are all fucking disappointing and embarrassing.

The Indigenous erasure on this app is real.

I added a traditional garment from Toraja culture so hopefully people will ask me about it on the streets and I can flip the subject to #MMIWG2S

If only USAsians cared as much about the people globally, whose lives and communities were destroyed for their privileges, than they do about themselves and their fucked up colony.

I just figured out how to make moderation lists so this one is short but I’ll keep adding to it.

I usually don’t like these lists but so far this list consists of those encouraging the deportation & death of voters in Dearborn who didn’t vote for Harris.
