"100 years ago this weekend, America Firsters enacted the first race-based immigration law, banning virtually all immigration from Asia"

The US enacted the eugenics-inspired Immigration Act of 1924, which completely prohibited immigration from Asia. Designed to limit all immigration to the US, the act was particularly restrictive for Eastern and Southern Europeans and Asians. Upon signing the act into law, President Coolidge remarked, “America must remain American.”

    @thepoliticalcat Please, don't say it was in the US...

    I remember a guy in Lagos who had a daughter who was disabled.

    His family pretty much ignored her.

    He was an immensely wealthy polygamist, and the entire family behaved as though she just wasn't there.

    Back then, in most sub-Saharan societies, deformities were treated as curses, and oftentimes left to fend for themselves as street beggars.

    Even to this day, albinos are ill treated.

    Also, look up Mary Slessor.

    I need to go retch.🤬 🤬

    @thepoliticalcat The rose-colored revisionist histories are what we are saddled with.

    Everything was fine back in the "day."

    No, morons!

    Everything wasn't fine.

    Most things weren't.

    @StillIRise1963 So, that's the head fake being used to draw our attention away form L'affaire Alito?

    I bet that self-hating house n-word on the Supremes will vote to re-segregate.

    I can see him doing so.

    @StillIRise1963 Of course they will.

    In fact, I have the dialog of his removal here.

    It took four years and a jury trial for Amara Harris to beat the ticket that accused her of stealing another girl’s AirPods.

    @angiebaby I don't think so.😅

    It is overblown, as the data stays on the local machine.

    obeto,
    @obeto@mas.to avatar

    @angiebaby LOL

    Actually, everyone.

    This is akin to Time Machine on MacOS.

    I posted this earlier: https://mas.to/@obeto/112481002028629749

    The data stays on the device.

    Microsoft does not have access to it - 😜 - and they shouldn't.

    Wisconsin Senate Candidate Eric Hovde Says Old People Shouldn't Get To Vote Because They're Almost Dead

    “Well, if you’re in a nursing home, you only have five, six months life expectancy. Almost nobody in a nursing home is at a point to vote, and you had … adult children showing up and saying, ‘Who voted for my 85- or 90-year-old father or mother?’” Hovde said.

    What, the flying flock??? https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/a60858371/republican-senate-candidates-2024/

    @angiebaby Yes! So true.

    That demographic is very loyal to the GOP.

    People, calm down!

    I was triggered at first as well, but after giving it more thought, I agree with Redmond.

    rightfully CANNOT blur or encrypt your passwords because doing so would require that Microsoft be a content moderator, returning your data to their Seattle mothership in order to do so.

    That is a level of surveillance no one should be comfortable with.

    Then again, you have given 20 years access to your email inbox, so...

    Nothing to see here.

    Mosey along.

    @samhainnight It's the first time I have come across it in the wild, despite having predicted it to staff and clients.

    I can just see ratfckers like Ron DeathSantis weaponizing the data.
