If the bill passes, it will make ICE the nation’s largest jailer, with more funding for prison camps than the entire federal Bureau of Prisons. It would give ICE enough money to have more officers than the entire FBI.

Today is day 15 of a hunger strike by 6 JVP members here in Chicago in protest of the deliberate US-Israeli starvation of Gaza. So far neither @duckworth.senate.gov
nor @durbin.senate.gov have agreed to even meet with them.

Why won’t you meet with your constituents?

In three days of bombing, Israel has murdered nearly 1,000 Iranians. That is over 300 people per day. While continuing to carry out massacres in Gaza, dropping bombs & also directly gunning starving people down. Get this malignant cancer out of our region for the love of humanity

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

If you think non-violence is the truly right way, where are there trainings near you? Who’s holding them? How can you help them? Can you donate? Are you spreading contact info? Do you know how to find trainings in other places?

White ppl have fetishized the fuck out of non-violence. 3/x

You do a GREAT disservice to those who developed and practice(d) it if you just act like it’s some simple decision. It is not. If you want ppl to participate in resisting fascism through non-violence, you had better be doing everything you can to make that training available. Don’t talk shit. 2/x

DO NOT FETISHIZE NON-VIOLENCE.

It is a PRACTICE and a DISCIPLINE. The people who employed it successfully trained RIGOROUSLY. It’s not just a decision, because it goes against basic human instincts. 1/x

Thread. Our current group of liberal elites took the lessons of successful non-violent social movements and interpreted them into the "hitting is always wrong" lecture you give your 5 year old.

General chemistry point: if you think you have been exposed to ANYTHING acid OR alkali, the correct treatment is to flush with lots of cold water and SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION

Neutralisation reactions release heat

This is potentially dangerous and damaging. And the new chemical is likely harmful, too
Tear gas and pepper spray are not acids. They don’t cause a burning sensation because they are acids. Using antacids is a placebo at best and, in your eyes, a cause of injury
