I’m tired of supporting instances that support that trash. Are there any suggestions or even a good up-to-date list available?

Don’t even get me started on the pioneers being led by that same golden legend to take over the rest of the continent (+/-), only to be discarded* when the rich fucks decided it was safe enough for them to roll in and take it all from them, whole cloth —“legally binding” documents be damned. 🤨
*: and/or starved, encarcerated, defrauded, forgotten, shot on sight, et al.
Yeap. I was listening to the First America podcast recently, and it was pointed out that later in the famous document that started with “all men are created equal” it was followed by words to the effect of ‘NA’s are savages,’ with nothing but negative implications.
Bottom line is that as much as the country was founded on the idea of a modern democracy, it was also directly founded on greed and racism. Greed for the land most specifically, with the crown preventing them from crossing over the Appalachians, hence the need to break away.
The legend holds that it was founded on that and other platitudes when, in reality, it was founded to give the semi-ruling class and < 3rd kids of washed-out lines a treehouse away from the 'rents. First, it was cowboys & indians (😅), then it was GIs & J— nope. Anyhow, you get the picture.
We’ve always been disposable, neglectable after-thoughts to them —even when those among us shine like none other, they’re still commodified, paraded for a bit, and then hucked aside for the new thing. Hell, been this way for centuries, really. 🤷🏼♂️
Real talk: how long until we see the first Desert Storm action figs? How about a Twin Towers LEGO set? 🤮
