Thank you for subjecting yourself to this information for us. I’m crying reading your full thread. Disgusted, horrified, sickened by the depravity and complicity and corruption. And I’m so damn angry!

More than a year in this has mostly gone as I feared, and in some ways has been worse. But there have been two contrasting surprises:
-- The speed and breadth of institutional capitulation
-- The courage, ferocity, and resolution of regular people
Our strength isn't our institutions. It's us.

I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity.
They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.

Trump is coming after all of us. All of us who oppose his tyranny and brutality. All of us who defy his dictatorship. All of us who seek accountability and challenge his murderous goons.
All across America we must rise up against this oppression, as peacefully but as definitively as we can.

Just curious, is there ANYTHING that an ICE agent can do that Republicans will condemn as wrong? Anything at all? Or it just automatically defend ICE no matter what now? That’s who you are?

Pay attention. Believe that they are planning the worst.
For folks still struggling with the math:
There are ~345 million US citizens.
There are ~245 million white US citizens.
This is what they mean by "Peaceful ethnic cleansing." Their plan ends with deporting all non-white people.
Not "undocumented criminals."
Not even "all undocumented people."

This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

If you want our politics to change, it is IMPERATIVE that you become a different kind of voter:
1) become an OBSESSIVE primary, local & off-cycle voter
2) research every candidate and don’t rely on what commercials tell you about them
3) show up at events where candidates speak & debate

Yes, yes, yes! Great points in this thread. But also, how do we teach men to have platonic friendships with women? That’s the dilemma. Far too many men classify women first as potential sexual partners and see nothing else.
