Violence and thuggery. The racist underbelly in plain sight, and out for blood.
We cannot allow this country to follow the path of the U.S, and a government and police force that turns a blind eye, is our first sidestep into christofascism on our streets. Brave counter protestors.

A friend of mine has coined the term “Pinocheting” to describe what the government is doing to these prisoners.
Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

The U.S. is accelerating its transformation into the world’s largest immigration carceral state. What’s framed as detention is, in truth, a state-funded concentration system—where migrants are held in legal limbo, stripped of rights, and warehoused for profit with impunity.

Most of you know I'm raising two autistic kiddos so predictably I find this absolutely disgusting. So dehumanizing and most of it just plain wrong. But above all: who makes it a point to say autistic people "won't pay taxes"? I mean... WHAT THE FUCK? Can *anyone* in this regime not be evil?

The major political parties are beneficiaries of the gambling industry, and that’s why they are delaying any meaningful reform of the gambling industry. It’s time they put aside their self-interests and started doing what is best for the people who elect them.

Do you think Trump is trying to destabilise the U.S economy and civil services, in order to elicit rolling protests, in an attempt to generate a legitimate mechanism to declare a national security threat, so he can legally implement martial law?
Or am I just being paranoid?

The media can (and should) reject the Right's deceptive frame. This is not about "references to diversity, equity, and inclusion."
It is a neosegregationist attempt to erase everyone but white males from the nation's history.

Between 1946 and 1981 - 5 million council houses were built.
Between 1980 and today - almost 2.5 million were sold.
Since 1981 we've only built around 250,000.
That's why we can't house everyone - nothing to do with immigration.
