The physical world still exists and eventually ideas formed in the mass hallucination chamber of social media will collide with it, even for the people in the grips of the hallucinations. And when that happens a lot of people will die.
This is also what happens to pregnant women and their babies when they fall for snake-oil treatments for preeclampsia.

This angle shows Trump’s ICE agent standing on the side of the vehicle and firing into the open window at the driver. This was murder.

It cannot be stressed enough that this is the moderate position.
Abolishing ICE is not enough. All of DHS needs to be ripped out by the roots. Dissolve CBP and ICE completely, and move TSA, Secret Service, FEMA, and the Coast Guard to other agencies.

The video shows ICE agents removing the woman's body from the car & carrying her down the road, no ambulance. An onlooker tried to approach to help, identified himself as a doctor & ICE pointed guns at him.

"– Plato invented the very idea of a university. No one can claim that Plato is so dangerous that we dare not talk about him. Generations after generations have read Plato, learned from Plato, and found his perspectives worth studying."

Interview with Swedish philosophy professor Martin Peterson who can't teach Plato at Texas A&M:
"I have chosen texts by Plato with some care, which I know discuss, e.g. homosexuality.
But it's Plato. It is of course completely absurd that a philosophy institution would not let anyone teach Plato."

Greenland is back in the news so I am compelled to remind folks that while yes, there are rare earth minerals there, the tech weirdos who have infiltrated the government have also been obsessed with Greenland as part of their network state plan for a long time.

Remember: Federal officials do not enjoy categorical, absolute immunity from state-level prosecutions. They are entitled to removal to federal court. But conduct that is unreasonable or unnecessary for the execution of their law enforcement duties is susceptible to criminal prosecution.
