To be sovereign is to exert one’s control over mortality and to define life as the deployment and manifestation of power.”
― Achille Mbembe, Necropolitics

“Intimately, and if it were hypothetically within my power; for what it has dreadfully done, and all that it continues doing to the world by its primary global influence - I'd wish to see the leading force of U.S. imperialism wiped from the very face of the Earth, and America returned to the rightful indigenous, with our world soon on the path, cured of this unending curse of modernity.”
― MuzWot
