part of the reason it's so frustrating when Dems constantly gesture at bipartisanship with *this* GOP, Biden included, is that totally screws up people's expectations when it comes to the areas where bipartisanship fails!
the issue is that dem leadership neither communicates that their hands are tied legislatively nor communicates in a way that effectively lays the groundwork for the work a future majority will have to do, let alone winning one back.

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.
"“They specifically asked me if I knew where the Hmong families lived on my street & in the neighborhood.” Lugert-Thom responded, “I don’t know anything about that” & she said they then asked, “Well, what about the Asian families?”"
"“I was a bit shaken & a bit shocked of what I was asked to do.”"

A St. Paul resident says federal officers knocked on her door and asked her to identify Hmong and Asian households in her North End neighborhood last week.

ICE detained Arlit Maria Martinez on her way to work. 2 days later, her 15 yo son died of cancer. They wouldn't let her out to say goodbye. The family had planned to move back to Mexico prior to the cancer diagnosis but stayed for his treatment. Now, Mr Martinez has lost his wife to ICE & his son.
Teen dies of cancer days after mother arrested by ICE: ‘She’s never gonna see him’
The mother's family pleaded with federal officers for her release from custody to say her final goodbyes to her son, but their requests went unanswered.

If people hadn't been willing to share video, for instance, the official narrative on George Floyd would have stood, and his death would have been fully covered up. It is really vital that if you have video of ICE acting aggressively, you let the public see.

Everything this sub says about lipase is wrong. Lipase is a cost-cutting enzyme that made detergents worse.

So, El Fasher looks like one of the worst single event atrocities to happen this century so far, but the evidence has come in such a trickle it seems to only now be getting verified

Not a lawyer: suppose people are held in contempt. What happens next? If they're thrown in prison, is there any reason why they can't be pardoned?

Thinking more on this: Human beings are just really bad at ascribing political acts to individuals, it's not a conservative thing. Even, like, Luigi Mangione fans tend to just treat him as a mold to pour their preferred ideology into.
I think another factor is that it simply does not really animate the right to blame events on individuals. They like blaming stuff on a faceless horde: none of them could name a single person involved in ISIS terror attacks, for instance
Thus, Charlie Kirk was shot by "antifa"
