People are rising up and teaching each other how to resist and fight back, and it’s working.
And yeah, we’re seeing a whole lot of stupid ICE agents stumbling around like they own the place.

At the moment, the official voice of the US government is a rancid mixture of trolling, cruelty, propaganda, and crass jokes about the human suffering they’re creating.
The official voice of the US government is cruel, gross, and weird. What is that doing to us?
Joking memes about imprisonment, deportation, and death by alligator are designed to radicalize and desensitize.

Fox guest on how to save money during the holidays:
"Remember, adults don't need gifts. Focus on the people in your life who are aged 3 to 18. Grandma doesn't need slippers. If they don't live by you, don't get them a gift."

There's no time like the present to leave it all behind, live in a hollow tree, become a dark druid, and befriend the moss & owls.
They will not hurt you like the world does.
Except for the owl bites.
