It Didn’t Fall Apart. It Was Built Like This.
Seven moves across capital, technology, and terrain. This isn’t drift. It’s consolidation.

If that was true it would be true
In America, we have no Kings, no Queens, no nobles, no dictators, and no emperors. We have no slaves, no serfs and no subjects.
Just us—‘We the People.’
Just us—‘We the People.’

Yes, he's polling poorly, but he still has the power to do what he wants. If we want to stop him, we must *build the power* to do that. Sadly, we cannot disapprove our way out of fascism.

Dems keep thinking this is a game. You talking+marching, they shooting+running up in gov buildings.
They told you what it is…& you playing like business as usual works.
Ultimately white people don’t want to have to confront what whiteness is. & POC don’t want to tip the cart or flip the tables.

A man impersonating a police officer assassinated a Democratic state legislator in Minnesota, Gov. Tim Walz said on Saturday, and killed the lawmaker’s husband. The assailant also shot and injured another Democratic lawmaker and his wife, officials said. nyti.ms/4jRTrvw

Here’s the thing…we really should build a wall. Around the Blue states. Keep the taxes inside, too. Problem is Blue is always trying to save Red from themselves. This why I believe everyone needs a Caribbean/African granny. Because they live by letting ppl endure the consequences of their choices.

Israeli military did not “intercept a ship.”
The Israeli military did commit a violent act of piracy against a UK flagged vessel in Int’l waters as it fulfilled a legal right to reach Gaza & alleviate suffering, then abducted its crew & transported them by force to Israel under threat of execution.

It’s a tale as old as time. It’s their relationship with everyone…
Had they not toppled DEMOCRACIES in LATAM to install puppets who bilked their countries post WWII—cause they were scared of the “commies”—most of them wouldn’t be coming here either looking for basic livable conditions.

if white Americans didn’t want Mexicans in California maybe they should not have conquered California from Mexico and then spent 150 years building up an economy entirely dependent on the flow of people and goods across the border just a thought

But I must say…white ppl when you were sitting pretty enjoying/ignoring lynchings, destroying populations/acting obtuse for your Manifest Destiny, bombing countries for your freedom, and manipulating currencies for your comfort—you ain’t think them chickens would come home to roost in your coop.

Look, I hear Gavin. But while you talking slick to Trump and Homan cause you don’t really believe they’ll run down on you…control the ppl under your control. You have the power to deal with your police. You doing the most Abe Lincoln ass shit right now. And only the delusional+fools think it’s tough
BREAKING: LAPD didn’t just “detain” someone. They surrounded him, beat him, and jumped him — like a gang. On camera. On horses. While he screamed for help. Unarmed. Cornered. Alone.
If that’s not state violence, what the fuck is?

We’re witnessing again what the ages have proven: most people in the thick of crisis are cowards.
They only grow a conscience once the chaos is over.
You cheer for soldiers, you justify the police.
But obedience isn’t virtue. Conscience > compliance.

And yet it did. It amuses me how little Americans know about their country, and even more how much white people refuse to accept about themselves.
They’re some of the consistently consistent ppl on this planet. Set your watch to them…their bs is always on time.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
