"Since police and professional militaries were founded, they have systematically attacked and even slaughtered large groups of entirely peaceful people. They would not be useful to the government if they weren’t able to murder."

I confess it’s hard for me to forgive the people who voted for Trump when he was crystal clear that he would deport millions using brutal mass roundups and concentration camps.
The kindest thing I could say was that they were dumb as shit and can’t think through consequences of a policy.

This is for liberals and progressives. This is about ICE, Border Patrol, and cops in general:

They will fund ICE then they will blame you for criticizing them for their electoral defeats. They justify the fascism while fundraising like gangbusters off the angry and the frightened. They are grifters. They are profiting mightily off this situation. They are living WELL right now

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

One of the first things anyone learns about facial recognition is that it is often wrong and that it is biased. And yet ICE is using it all day every day to determine legal status & who to detain. And now we have a high-profile example of it being flat out wrong:
