  • Not everyone with convictions will go to prison for them. That's not to say he has good ones, the man sucks, but plenty of people have thrown away their lives to protest or to expose their governments then fled to avoid prosecution. It's a group with folks from Lenin to Snowden

  • Yeah we dont talk about it much because it was a shitshow that's definitely political but not really in line with any side. Like it made perfect sense to Americans at the time that black people who were sick of racism and their ancestors were brought here against their will should be allowed to just go to Africa.

    Its definitely a story we should remember when we talk about decolonization. Not as a deterrent but as a warning of what doing it poorly could look like.

    But yeah thats why there's that one country in Africa whose flag is weirdly similar to the American flag, and the lack of knowledge of it is why its emoji is regularly used to refer to America
