the US is never going back to the subtly fascistic liberal capitalism where the majority is comfortable enough to ignore the subtle fascism.

this region of the world will either be a full out nazi ethnostate, or whatever is built from the ashes of the conflict that prevents it.

Death Squads
Patty, a woman observer in Minneapolis, was abducted from a car by federal agents today. She was released and talked about her experience in custody.

An agent said, "You guys gotta stop obstructing us. That's why that lesbian bitch is dead."

People in Minnesota need to understand their own elected leaders are doing this to them.

Do not buy their excuses about how they are doing everything they can. They are lies. They have enabled this regime at every turn.

Everything you can do to slow down ICE's ethnic cleansing pogrom will save lives.

If you make it so it takes 12 goons to do a 6-goon job, you're saving lives. Every minute they spend in location 1 is a minute they can't spend in location 2.

Every squad they deploy to your city saves another city.
Every extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people.

Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.

Too many people are trying to differentiate between ICE and police.

I will hold your hand as I say this:

Police in the US treat marginalized people the way ICE treats everyone. They're far more similar than you want to admit.

Defunding the police and abolishing ICE are the same fight.

This implies that when given notice, these facilities will change their behavior and conditions for the better. So... Democrats should be requesting NON-STOP rolling daily visits to these facilities. Whatever the "tour" mode is should become permanent.
NEWS: A day after the Minneapolis shooting, Secretary Noem quietly signed a new policy barring congressional visits to ICE facilities without a week's advance notice. That policy change led to three MN Dems being blocked from accessing an ICE facility today. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

ok but they won't

ICE officers won't follow orders they don't ideologically like

And elected Dems have not yet shown evidence of any spine to do what is necessary: punish these people.

For some reason I'm thinking about how during the Spanish Civil War those communities that opened up their armories to the workers tended to not be taken over immediately by the fascists.

“They called the local sheriff; they showed up and were going to arrest me. These are the same people that I’m supposed to call to coordinate security or to do support when I have a town hall.”

People rationalizing that staying on X is the moral position remind me of people saying you can change the Democrats from the inside. Any illusion that it was a force for good has been shattered now. Stop embarrassing yourself.

Oh, look. From 2014:

“Border Patrol agents have deliberately stepped in the path of cars apparently to justify shooting at the drivers [in] 67 cases that resulted in 19 deaths.”

You can’t reform that culture.

Ross was in Border Patrol in this period (2007-2015).

Border Patrol's use of deadly force criticized in report
An independent review of U.S. Border Patrol shootings criticizes the agency for 'lack of diligence' in its investigations and suggests that agents' tactics sometimes create a pretext to open fire.

I can't recommend Really Really Free Markets enough, for exactly this reason.

Even conservatives love free stuff & love clearing out their closets.

Don't put the words "mutual aid" on your flyers, but make it a "community event".

Bring a cooler of drinks, a meal to share, play some music
Maybe a handful of townspeople coming in once a week; a few houseless folks, a pregnant single mom from the local church.

And the politicians supporters saw people who were like them getting help too. They might have still had anti-refugee views, but they stopped harassing the free store.

Please stop platforming Minneapolis’ piss boy mayor.

Every tragedy, he emerges from some downtown gutter to cry on national television that only he should be able to murder the people of Minneapolis with zero consequences.

He alone controls our police force.
If he wanted ICE gone, they’d be gone.

My roommate is a teacher and has reported that ICE has been hanging around Septa stops and depots in the interest of abducting kids on their way home because they aren’t allowed to enter schools. They claimed to be part of a “Septa Strike Force” which does not exist. Boost if you can.

Once you understand that you're dealing with murderous liars, you stop entertaining what they say as possibly credible and legitimate. The fight against them is about stopping them from terrorizing and killing by any means, not winning debates about your reality versus theirs.

ICE killed a Black man, Keith Porter, 7 days before Renee Good, and I hadn't heard about it until today. His vigils went unnoticed. His life came and gone and America forgot to blink.
