I think it's important to keep in mind that, in every liberatory struggle, there will always be people shouting from your corner who earnestly believe that if we abolish an injustice, we will need another injustice to replace it.
The thing that pissed me off the most about that Pod S*mave America clip the other day was that they presented ‘that something needs to be done about the border’ as an indisputable fact that nobody could possibly disagree with.

I disagree with it. I think it’s all imagined & perpetuated by bigots

Good lord @stevebrusatte.bsky.social I fear you may have jumped the shark with that quote 😁😁😁
Previous estimates put T. rex’s lifespan at about 30 years, and the dinosaurs were thought to have reached their full size around age 20 to 25. New research rewrites that story. “It took the prince a lot longer to grow into the king,” says a paleontologist not involved in the work.

New clues hidden inside T. rex bones suggest that the carnivore lived longer lives than we thought

I know I've been harping on this for a few days, but if this is true just fucking do it. The longer you wait the worse it will get. Force the cops and guards to make a choice. And let the people see the actual situation.

elected democrats who want their constituents to remain non-violent in their protests of these abuses must actually offer a path for ending the abuses non-violently. they currently are not as a party and it’s a major problem.
🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.
He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

this completely horrifying. ICE is a domestic occupying threat against us all
21-year-old activist injured by ICE:
I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.

No matter what the fuck happened here the minimum demand here is that Trump needs to be immediately impeached and removed from office and everyone involved in this needs to be hauled in front of a tribunal
Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

Something americans need to understand is that your country has always been a colonial occupation war monster with an endless hunger for new resources and territories that not only has never shied away from mass death but in facts seems to seek it enthusiastically at every turn.

The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.
This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.
It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.
