full disclosure i was watching a vid abt the nuclear incident where somebody mislabeled a jar peabody poured into a mixer n he was exposed to a gorillion sieverts of radiation n it's the most hardcore work prank of all time although his wife n nine kids probably didn't find it funny cuz he died like 2 days later.
omg nvm this aint the first aztec vid i thought you were tryin' to sass me. it's too early n i mixed the names up. i should be banned from looking at my phone in single digit hrs bcuz mild retardation. carry on
i have no problem admitting that Lozen is 10 times better man than me. i liked the video, though i think he tries too hard to justify the cruelty by war psychosis alone. the woman that killed her twins could have done it out of post partum depression, or out of cultural reasons (i don't know if twins were seen as a bad omen in Apache culture or not). and the way that the little 6yo girl was killed was clearly for style points, and i don't care who says otherwise.
i like the video too, despite the mention of porfirio diaz. apache are a bit of a blind spot for me, too. always leaned toward reading abt my own tribes or the ones i grew up around.
i like that he reads more than one book too. the variety of sources used is useful.
honestly, human pregnancy is just weird all together. being able to get pregnant year round is wild. like, in the middle of war/famine times? at least rabbits can reabsorb the pregnancy if it's inconvenient.
porfirio diaz? bro was a piece of shit who "modernized" by privatizing n selling land out to "investors" n had that social darwinism shit goin' on. led to a lot of poor, brown ppl routinely getting thrown in jail for being poor n brown.
cucking the mexican ppl for foreign money interests
that's off the top of my head after not reading a mexican history book for like a decade too, tbh... he probably did other things that piss me off that i don't remember rn
