"... we are living through the answer." is the perfect sentence about now.
For anyone who wondered how the Germans turned a blind eye to the Holocaust, we are living through the answer. We watched it start in real time. Do you remember last October? The details slip away fast but holding onto them helps us hold onto who we are joycevance.substack.com/p/we-are-not...
We are not Nazis.
Also: No Kings, No Dictators.

I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I don’t want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.

what impressed me most today was that a huge crowd of people who mostly had never been tear gassed managed to retreat without running or trampling each other. under a cloud of gas that was not moving (zero wind), people held onto each other and walked blind down a street packed tight as sardines
Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks.
They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

Journalist Georgia Fort, about to be arrested by ICE for doing journalism, peers out her front door on the left as, on the right a masked, bespectacled ICE agent peers in her window. Is this a scene from Scream? From Brazil? It is, as a former student of mine would say, *dark shit.*

The term martyr means “witness.” The man was murdered for bearing witness, literally bearing it, not arms but a camera. Murdered for seeing.

Thinking of 5-yr-old Liam Ramos, "worst of the worst" according to ICE. Thinking of all we know about such brutal campaigns in Nazi Germany, Rwanda, Jim Crow South, when humanity is inverted such that children are not only not innocent but represent, in the mind of the fascist, the greatest threat.
