MODERATORS
(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 was just thinking about exactly this. I had a joke ready for any chapo besides Matt. I was going to go "good, they were kind of annoying." Same with Hasan I would be like "understandable, he pauses a lot during videos"
The thing is that Hasan had a rubber bullet, meant for your center of mass, get reaaaaally close to his face during the anti-ICE protests. That would have been a perfectly coherent time to go "they hate us, train like it." 1) I do try to train hard 2) I'm a coward in that sense 3) there just wasn't a collective sense of grief about it. I don't think it even stopped Hasan from going back the next day. Shitting out your doodoo ass about it is to take attention away from the various concentration camps in

Reminds me of the story arc of an early character I wrote. He was supposed to be a real piece of shit (disrespectful sex pest who uses a portal to another world to vent his frustration on everyone and everything in it). I wanted a human from Earth to witness some multi-book narrative climax where they destroy an Eldritch monster after generations of struggle. But because he couldn't care less about this other culture, his narrative recount looks away at pivotal moments, belittles the emotional reactions of others, and is otherwise an unreliable account. "Her face started glowing. She started crying talking to voices in her head about prophecy junk." But because he was there for the legendary battle, they call him a saint of temperance or something deeply ironic. In a different book there's a group that's supposed to go "We'll hear you out because we are blessed by the temperance of Saint whoever." and only if you read this book would you know how perverted the perception of this person was by history.
