The number of immigrants detained in ICE facilities across the country has reached a record high of more than 56,000.

The driving force behind this surge is the detention of immigrants with no prior criminal convictions.
ICE Detention Numbers Have Reached a Record High

14 months straight of slaughtering children, women, the elderly, doctors, journalists, aid workers is the historic crime we should be grieving and fighting against.

But also if you care/cared about Israel it is destroying itself in the darkest way imaginable.

I think a big difference that reduces engagement is that ‘likes’ have no effect here, and people tend to like rather than repost. But the only way more people will see a post, is if their followers repost it 😕

Indeed. It’s FOG. They’re using..Fear. Obligation. Guilt.

All sides of politics use it. It’s just that some are better at it than others. Our current Oz PM Albanese used it quite well to get elected.

Unfortunately many are naïve, lack critical thinking in education & are easily manipulated.
