I am willing to extend a lot of generosity to someone who read some pundit and thought things would be okay. I'm gonna extend a lot less generosity to that pundit himself. it's pretty simple.

this is a fake problem. no one is saying this to regular, offline people who are coming around. they’re saying it to people who are engaged in professional political analysis who committed professional malpractice by scolding people who saw what was coming.

no, those people shouldn’t get a break.
Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?

There are people trying to stop others from using whistles, and next they'll say it's ableism.

As your disability advocate friend, I will be the first with serious sensory sensitivity to say that I would rather be in pain than someone get abducted, or shot.

Block/mute this argument, it's an op.

Four months of shootings and deaths. This doesn't even count the neglect and death in their concentration camps. Fuck. This. Shit.

The irony in militaristic terms is that the bovino maga set are buying themselves into a classic counter insurgency trap (everyone who lives in the place you're occupying and laying siege to hates you and will give aid without question to anyone who looks likely to have a chance at fucking you up).
these guys are LARPing like siege commanders talking about "supply lines"

rightoids literally cannot comprehend the idea of a community caring for their own; these people live in Minneapolis their supply line is a five minute drive to the grocery store

I heard folks are wondering about the shadowy cabal of billionaires who have been funding handwarmers in the Twin Cities.

Stay tuned, we have a new Twin Cities supplies wishlist dropping after dinner! Be the shadowy cabal you want to see in the world. 💓

advocating to give ICE better training instead of abolishing them is an abysmal position to take even rhetorically.

it immediately weakens your demands & makes you seem spineless.

it signals complicity with the government publicly executing soccer moms & VA nurses for holding phones. it is rancid.
Since Jamelle Bouie from the NYT called me illiterate before he blocked me, I would like to clarify that I understood the point he was making perfectly well.

I simply disagree with him on the effectiveness of reform as even a rhetorical device when people are being murdered in the streets by ICE.
this is not about Bouie, this is about the historically ineffective outcomes of reformism as a political strategy.

We have to defund ICE and the cops. I’m sorry. It can’t just stop with ICE. We gotta go all the way. 🤷🏾‍♀️

The Newark Riots, the Civil Rights movement, Matewan, Shay's Rebellion, the Bayonne Refinery Strikes -- all of this shit is etched so deep into the government's playbook I doubt they could respond any other way if they tried.

I think it’s lost on a lot of people that the previous Democratic administration openly backed and funded an apartheid regime that is doing what Stephen Miller wants and wishes he could do with unlimited power.

Not to mention the admin increased funding for ICE.

Perhaps there is a lesson here.

I keep waiting for this, it's a gaping lack in all this talk. They talk about how bad it is that ICE is kidnapping people but don't say a word about rescuing the people who have been kidnapped.
I am glad some politicians are finally, FINALLY, refusing to fund ICE and some talking about abolition.

But where is the screaming, where are the strong words, where is the horror and the remedy for the detention centers? There is no excuse. Free everyone, shut down, then investigate and prosecute.

the kids and the commies are always right, nobody ever listens to them and nobody ever learns a single lesson from being completely wrong about everything all the time because capitalism gives them headpats and belly rubs for refusing to change
All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.

I keep thinking “my god the people they’ve killed seem like exceptionally good folks” and I think the lesson there is that they’re not exceptional, but that wonderful people abound and that a baseline distrust in humanity is a shitty conservative trope that privileges power over collective strength

I agree that we can’t make Alex Pretti a Benedictine monk because that’s a trap, but we can talk about the good things we did because people will see and hear them and think “I do those things too”
