This is why they don’t want to teach our history! But this needs to be taught so it never happens again! Read this!They described us like animals! But we suppose to forget that shit happen. Your kids don’t have to be like those in the past! They can be better! they need to know!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

This is a modern digital recreation. The font used wasn't invented until 1932

The ad also claims the auction will take place on "Thursday 10AM" - which isn't possible since April 12, 1848 fell on a *Wednesday*

Маріуполь. Прямий удар російських військ по пологовому будинку. Люди під завалами. Діти під завалами. Це звірство! Скільки ще світ буде співучасником, ігноруючи терор? Негайно закрийте небо! Негайно зупиніть убивства! Ви маєте силу. Але, схоже, втрачаєте людяність.

Tucker Carlson just said "it’s an awful thing" that people are saying he supported Russia and wondered, "Why are they saying it? It doesn’t make sense."
Felt like a good time to combine these clips from @Acyn from the past few weeks. Never forget it.

Right now, in the USA, 99% of people being hospitalized & dying from COVID-19 are those who chose not to be vaccinated.
This confirms that whoever’s been advising you to decline the Vaccine, does not value your health or longevity.
A form of biological “unnatural” selection.

If anyone had a right to question whether our democracy was worth redeeming, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Because in the face of billy clubs and lynchings, poll taxes and literacy tests, he never gave in to violence, never waved a traitorous flag or gave up on our country.

"Only human beings guide their behaviour by a knowledge of what happened before they were born and a preconception of what may happen after they are dead; thus only humans find their way by a light that illuminates more than the patch of ground they stand on“ (PB Medawar).

Today is a good day.
It’s easier to be a parent this morning.
Character MATTERS.
Being a good person MATTERS.
This is a big deal.
It’s easy to do it the cheap way and get away with stuff — but it comes back around.
Today is a good day.

SCIENTISTS: “@OSiRISRex intercepted asteroid Bennu, 300-million km away, to retrieve samples for lab analysis.
RESPONSE: “Oooh!”
SCIENTISTS: “Research shows humans are catastrophically warming Earth”
RESPONSE: “That conflicts with what I want to be true, so it must be false.”

Science is not opinion or politics.
It’s objective observation, evidence, experimentation, critical analysis, and peer review.
It’s truth whether or not you want to believe it.
I stand with Dr Fauci and I don’t get tired of science.

A person’s model of how the world works can gradually drift away from reality, especially if they mostly interact with like-minded people drifting in the same direction.
It in the long run, reality will not be ignored.
