White people are so limited in their analysis of history. Do Black people not exist to you? Good grief.
Worse than Kent State, really than any episode I can think of probably dating back to Reconstruc & earlier b/c

2. organized, not individual ofcrs losing it
3. literally at hand of federal government, which is
4. immediately lying & circling the wagons to prevent inves.

I really need for us to start being equally outraged when the folks getting arrested, detained and murdered are not white/mothers/nurses.

There used to be a family prison that they held families at before deportation. Do you know why they finally finally closed it? Prison guards were ‘bargaining’ with mothers- sex for extra food for your kid or a blanket etc.

That is: they were raping women in the family prison.

Guys nothing personal but if you rub your a.i. generated anti-ICE, anti-Trump memes in my face I gotta unfollow and mute you and also you’re dead to me.

It’s the sewage that fascism both shits and eats, it’s like blowing smoke in my face to show me how evil the tobacco companies are.

You rise to the level of your training and practice, not to the level of your imagined self.

So it's extremely important to get skilled up and to practice. That's what all of the people getting trained in ICE Watch are doing.

I saw that Philly is suing and fine.

But I think Philly should republish the full exhibit as a hard copy special issue zine/pamphlet and put them in every school in the city and every public library.

Philly should create a special curriculum unit and pick a week to do a citywide teach in.

There has NEVER BEEN AN IMMIGRATION PROBLEM IN THIS COUNTRY.

There has been a racist, nationalist fear-mongering problem in this country.

There has been an immigrant worker exploitation problem.

But there has never been an "immigration problem."

Blueksy shouting down Black people as a global chorus all week only to kick off the weekend with "we need to bring reparations back into political discourse and ICE victims are a great place to start" is just so PAINFULLY Bluesky.

Kudos for crafting exquisite ragebait that you also 100% believe.

Friend and comrade, I hate to tell you my own family history, let alone that of millions... for my people, it was 99 long years from the Emancipation Proclamation to the Civil Rights Act.

Entire generations lived and died.

It might be asking a lot but I am hoping that people realizing ICE is a terroristic entity will make them consider how policing is not different. Or when they say ICE is trafficking children to start looking more closely at CPS. We might have an opportunity for a Rubin’s Vase shift in perception.

This is what happens when people self-deny their kinks. They act them out in real life - or as seen here - the voting booth and then everyone has to experience them too. Don’t be this guy.

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.

What this country does to children is evil. And I’m so tired of the narrative of putting the work of “someday fixing it” on children and young people when they’re adults. That is OUR fucking job. They could be kids NOW if we did that work. Bypassing responsibility is why we are here now.

I'm sorry, abolishing ICE is now off the table as the centrist compromise.

The floor is now The Hague.
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."
