Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.
This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:
“Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

You get to select the player (the regime) and watch them play the first person shooter (assassinate their political opponents). That is their angle here.

Of course they aren't posting snuff video because they think it's exculpatory.
They're posting snuff video because their base takes pleasure in viewing that sort of content.

Maybe they wanted to be sure she had no chance of surviving.
It appeared they removed her from the vehicle and carried her down the street away from the crowds, and then it also looked like EMS vehicles couldn’t get to where they had taken her, so they ultimately brought the stretcher on foot.

I use the term "gutter racism" sometimes but it's worth getting this reminder that the most erudite "HBD" racism is just gutter racism with fancy words and a thin veneer of camouflage.
Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”
A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:
“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

The thing about genocidal logics is people dismiss them as cranks, but then by not stopping them and shutting down the bullshit, they get more and more people onboard.
It's not an accident that race science types, flat earthers and antivaxxers all rise together.

Someone asked me to comment on the anniversary of Jan 6. I will consider having comments on it….should it ever end. We are very much still reaching for the nadir of this reclamation. No time yet for historicizing it. Still trying to survive it.

They plan to seize all of Greenland’s natural resources. Make America Great again was a farce. It’s really about billionaires at Mara-Lago planning what they will seize control of next. American citizens pay for the war and shed their blood. Project 2024 talks about reinstating the draft.
