It really is tough to ban books, ideas and people. Not so easy as just slapping a filter in place. You have to try really hard...

@georgetakei Theyโll be forgotten after they send you and me to the gas chambers. History is written by the living, not the folks in the mass graves.

Is the plan also to scrub native languages ?
Like scrub the names of
- Texas , Caddo Nation, means "Friend"
- Milwaukee , Ojibwe, means "Good Land"
- Miami - Illinois , is actually the name of a Language (Algonquian)
- Tallahassee (Florida), Muskogean, means "old fields"
(just few examples)

@georgetakei For years and years they said that the men-and-women-in-uniform were sacred defenders of the great nation. Up to the point where even I have been thanked for my service, as an unwilling conscript in a foreign army who never left for any war zone.
To us in Europe this thing always seemed highly exaggerated, one of the quirks of the American, like their taste for oversized cars and terrible food.
But none of them gives a damn about actual 'honor and sacrifice.' It was a show. A lie.

A ๐ด๐ถ๐๐ถ (hiti) is an ancient Newah urban water feature: a stepped, sunken courtyard with waterspouts and a central pool. These are fed through a remarkable network of pipes, reservoirs, and irrigation systems drawing water from mountain springs dozens of kilometres away. Every day, hundreds of people from the neighbourhood come to draw water, bathe, and exchange news. They are a unique and precious feature of Newa urban architecture through which neighbourhoods are created.
