[liberationtech] [TrumanScholars] funds for transporting refugees from border to Germany

[willi uebelherr]

".. the N word .."

Dear Kenoli,

which N-word can you not write or speak? I grew up in Germany, my 
socialization started with Kant, Marx, Engels, Einstein, C.G.Jung, Fromm 
and others. But even in Germany there is no such thing or I myself never 
experienced this.

What happens with you in the USA that you have such thinking and 
speaking barriers.

with kind regards, willi
Asuncion, Paraguay

> Yes this is a great question.  Russia similarly invaded Afghanistan and parts of Syria.  We invaded Iraq and Grenada. Several groups tried to exterminate the Kurds and other groups in that region.  And more.  No one freaked out about the suffering of people in these countries and even drove refugees from there out of Europe and the United States.  These facts in the face of the way people are getting disturbed about Ukraine (I am also disturbed about Udraine but was similar disturbed about these other situations) and not about the suffering in these other countries is hugely concerning and speaks pretty directly to racist attitudes in Europe and the US.
