If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Why would they want to do that? It's complicated. Let me explain.

Education prevents fascism.

Wait, I guess it's not that complicated...

It begins… ICE just scooped them up, shaved their heads, dressed them in the same clothes, and sent them to a concentration camp in El Salvador with zero due process and in violation of a judge’s order.

This morning a video of mine was removed from YouTube that had been there for 12 YEARS. This particular video was a song that I wrote and performed called “Let Freedom Ring” that railed against authoritarianism and empire. (Continued)

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Hmmm, I wonder where in history we’ve seen a non-elected authoritarian leader seize control of a government through deft political maneuvering.

I just can’t quite place it. History class was a long time ago. A little help?

The actual artwork is of Trump, not Musk. This image was altered to make a point. Even though FB has supposedly stopped fact checking, they do apparently feel it necessary to fact check things like this, which go against this platform’s newfound alliance with the fascists. #fuckthefascists #FTF
