I think Occupy Wall Street has origins in and shares origins with Los Indignados. I think, but am not sure they are inspired by the Arab Spring movement. Where the Arab Spring movement draws from, I don't know.
(Gratuitous Hedges footage. Apologies.)
I would think the gold you saw was mined by Amerindians. But I don't know where European gold came from before the new world.
The reminders of that very evident in California, but nowhere near what I imagine in SA. Here, every fifth street seems
to have some mission reference. Then there are the preserved missions themselves. Yes, so much shame of the body. As in Australia I imagine.About christian martyrs, I can't wrap my head around that question, but I imagine so. There are so many gruesome images. The most extreme I've seen from Mexico. Though Spain might have some fine relics. But even where I am from, very removed from California, the images and icons were pretty bloody. Hard not to have the imagery affect (reflect?) one's bearings.
I dig a pony.
