Sure. He suggested that ICE kidnap my neighbors in the middle of the night, has been asked for over a month to do an eviction moratorium so people aren't forcibly removed from their homes, and has not done so.

We expect him to functionally help, not collaborate with fascists.

I heard murmurs of not being the best guy, but these specifics are definitely new and definitely... not cool. I grew up being called the R word and have some feelings about knowingly using gay as an insult. Hell no.

They haven't even left, and you're talking about rebuilding by 'shopping local'?

What are you even doing? Do an eviction moratorium. Functionally help businesses, not just a loan. Maybe pay attention to your citizens.

...whatever it is people need, they can do it, or they can find other people *just like them* to help out if they can't tackle it alone.

Can you imagine how much cooler our neighborhoods would be with something like that?

I mean, sometimes. They sure get their undies in a wad about what constitutes 'compliance' though, whether it actually is or just stating facts, or minority perspectives that should be listened to.

But about that specific thing, sure.

They're using every damn thing. Rentals, anything they can get their hands on. I've even heard people talk about ICE OUT stickers and plushies and shit. These people have no morals.

Are you trying to gaslight your community? You could spend the money helping people.

No, we need to abolish them. You old farts are not getting it.

There is no reforming a genocidal secret police.

How about that eviction moratorium?
