One thing that never ceases to amaze me is how willing people are to acquiesce to their oppression. Like if you're censoring yourself in anticipation of censoring then you just did their work for them. Stop it. Especially if you can afford to. Each time we do that we build their castle for them.

As ICE targets undocumented people in and around my city, I am proud of Chicago organizers and community members who are working to protect our neighbors. If you are discouraged in these times, remember that people of conscience are taking action and that there are many ways you can join them.

If you encounter an ICE agent and are a US citizen resist and do not comply with any of their requests.
Do not give them your name, Do not provide them your ID,
Do not speak to them in English.
Make them work for it, the more time they spend on you the less time they spend rounding up people.

I’m not going to hyper-focus on every action and word of this administration, especially since there are no consequences, but it’s hard to say that the white South African who has been spouting Nazi shit publicly for a while now somehow accidentally did a gesture similar to the Nazi salute twice
