ICE has only existed since 2003. A Bush-era creation, it is a militarized federal secret police that has been imbued with the Supreme Court with the unconstitutional power to ignore the fourth amendment.

Abolishing it and salting the earth where it grew is the moderate stance.

‼️ This is absolutely absurd. Trump is actively manufacturing a crisis. The Pentagon just announced that he’s federalizing another 2,000 California National Guard troops bringing the total to 4,000, plus 700 active-duty Marines heading into LA. This is a military occupation, not public safety.

I’ve been studying civil rights protests for 20 years. With new mobilization against Trump’s agenda, I’m sharing a thread summarizing my research on how nonviolent & violent actions by 1960s activists and police influenced media, elites, public opinion & voters. 1/ www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

The popular Nazi account is FINALLY down and we have @aliafonzy.bsky.social to thank for it.

She stood up to a racist in a very public way and did some very traumatizing work for free.

It would be nice if we could send her some funds for that labor.

Hell ya! I run a PbtA Dungeon World podcast set in a home-brew world. Come and laugh at all of our mistakes as our group of opportunists get in over their heads and steal or charm everything along the way.

With the recent hate accounts being exposed, people should to some time and check out these lists to help with your experience here.

It only mutes the accounts, though, which just feels like a band-aid, and speaks to possible larger issues on this site.
