(San Antonio Eloxochitlán, Oaxaca, 1873 - Leavenworth, Kansas, 1922) Mexican politician and journalist who is considered a precursor of the Mexican Revolution. His figure has remained as that of one of the most upright fighters and consistent with the cause of the workers during the times of the Revolution. Indefatigable and indefatigable, his thought and his struggle inspired many of the workers' conquests and some rights that would be included in the Mexican constitution.
The son of Indigenous parents, Ricardo Flores Magón studied law at the University of Mexico. In 1892 he was arrested along with his brother Jesús de him during a student protest against the dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz. After collaborating with the short-lived daily El Demócrata, he founded with his brother the newspaper Regeneración, whose first issue appeared on August 7, 1900 and from whose pages the Porfiriato was permanently lashed out.
Harassed by the government, he had to go into exile in the United States in 1904. In the city of Saint Louis (Missouri), he founded in 1906 the Mexican Liberal Party, of socialist/anarchist ideology, claiming a revolutionary program of state interventionism. He demanded the eight-hour day, Sunday rest and the distribution of land to the peasants, with which his ideas had repercussions on the Mexican labor movement. Closer and closer to anarchist socialism, his party was behind the strikes in the mining town of Cananea and the Rio Blanco industrial zone in Veracruz (1906-1907), violently repressed by the Díaz regime.
After the outbreak in 1910 of the revolution that would force Porfirio Díaz to resign, in 1911 he promoted the insurrection in Baja California with his brother Enrique. They came to take the cities of Mexicali and Tijuana and tried, without success, to found a socialist republic. Lacking aid, they were defeated by government troops and had to retreat to the United States. Convinced that the governments were to blame for the oppression of the working class, they continued to fight the rulers who, during the turbulent period of the Mexican Revolution, succeeded Díaz: Francisco I. Madero and Venustiano Carranza.
President Francisco Madero sought his help, but Flores refused to collaborate with the bourgeois revolution. Many of his claims were admitted in the Congress of Querétaro (1917). In 1918 he drew up a manifesto addressed to anarchists around the world, for which he was sentenced to twenty years in prison by the American authorities. After suffering a cruel and ruthless prison regime, he died almost blind on November 20, 1922, in Leavenworth (Kansas) penitentiary.

I wonder whether it correlates at all. On the other (actually same) hand, a disproportionate number of US presidents since ww2 have been left-handed.
Getting sent to a reeducation camp so I can learn to jerk off with my other hand
Left handed but am a right handed jerker. There's a joke there somewhere
Incel guy who thinks hexbear is cool and good because we hate sex and becomes a leftist.
Boomer told me, a person who has had severe sleep issues since i was 17 and rail thin at 170lbs, to lose weight to help with the apnea. One day the last person who thinks body weight is the source of all human frailty will die and that will be a blessed day.
Same boomer told me they know things are getting better bc poverty has gone down in their lifetime. I told them that is only true because of China implementing policies they have voted against their entire lives.
Excepting China, poverty has stayed the same or become worse worldwide especially in Africa and South America.
load bearing anime waifu statues without which the modlist breaks are peak skyrim actually
i ain't judging, skyrim horndogs are amongst the most ingenious and prolific of game modders. i respect them very much.
i've complained about horny mods in the megathread too lol. sometimes you take a bit of stupid for the good shit.
nonnegotiable mod i've had for the past 4(?) skyrim installs: wolf bikini---not because i'm a mad companion/werewolf fan, it simply has the best proportioned facemask piece in literally all of the mods. shit don't clip and is compatible with almost every face morph, unlike countless other bandanas that get fucked if you made a character's nose too long or some shit.
an armor mod on the end of a loadorder won't break it, usually. they're pretty unimpactful as far as mods go.
Hey why the fuck is my University using the fucking Political Compass test in my fucking sociology/politics course? Is there anything I can do to shut down this shitheel libertarian propaganda?
sociology/politics course
You have made a grave mistake. Is it too late in the semester go change courses? You learn about sociology from anthropologists and politics from angry marxist octegenarians who are supposed to be teaching intro to African literature but don't do that because there's a clause in their contract that says the dean has to knife fight them to terminate their employment.
Hate when random shitty memories show up for no reason.
Free gender test: if you make my dick hard, you're a man. If you don't, idfc about your gender
Philosophy promises to examine the nature of truth. It doesn't promise you'll like what's in the report.
arachno-stalinist. i take my marching orders from the black widow nesting near my doorway
These words he speaks are true, we're all huminary stew, if we don't pledge allegiance to, The Black Widow
15 minute city doesn't mean everything is within a 15 minute walk, it means everything is exactly a 15 minute walk. It's built along a circle with a 7.5 minute walk radius and you are forced to walk to the center whenever you go anywhere.
Everything is in 1 building but the elevator always takes around 10 minutes to respond.
Thinking about the "we're falling boys" discourse and I think I agree, but it's not because "we're not telling them to become providers anymore." That's reactionary trash.
I worked in a preschool and i saw kids play out what they saw on TV every day. The boys hit each other and the girls solved problems.
The way we socialize boys is setting them up for failure because they're not learning basic social skills or resilience.
Kids nowadays with their fortnites and iphones dont know what its like to play shitty browser games like adventure quest and dragonfable
Don't shit on Adventure Quest! That shit was important to my development as a child.
I just watched this retrospective on Adventure Quest. As someone who never played it and got into Dragonfable instead it was really interesting to see the similarities (and finally get an explanation as to what that Exodus dragonrider fight was about)
try not to get too great-man-worshippy but holy fucking shit how was Darwin so fucking right about so many things, in his own lifetime. my dude predicted fossils that should exist and were literally found years later
he roughly predicted the existence of and characteristics of multiple 'transitional' species, but he also specifically predicted feathered dinosaurs which was borne out by the discovery of archaeopteryx
He was a smart guy, he did a lot of research, he read a lot of contemporary thought, he was in correspondence with many other scientists in related fields.
like evolution makes perfect sense and everything it's just wild how little it took, like he wasn't part of a heretic field, it was just him making really significant leaps that all mesh together so well it just doesn't seem possible one figure in such a short time could've.
like history is always in conversation with the past ~200 years of scholarship, and very, very, seldom does somebody just completely break from all previous understandings. and those revolutions in those fields are preceded by a bunch of luke-warm takes that just gesture in that sort of direction. but evolution just sort of comes outta nowhere, reasonably complete though rough around the edges---and mostly from one guy. he had to have had the largest ego in human history before he died lmao
*though i might be talking out of my ass from a lack of knowledge about pre-darwinian paleontology & biology
Check out Epicurus for another one of these guys. Accurately grasped towards natural evolution, anti-slavery, germ theory and atomic theory
