This is why so many of us should have been listening to Black voices and learning far more about the history of racism in America.
All of that led us here. Fascism was already here for many others. And now it’s coming for the rest. If we had fought for others harder, we’d have prevented it.

I want to be clear: this is what American prisons are like.
I spent years posting about the humanitarian crisis in U.S. prisons. The criminal legal system consigns Americans who are incarcerated to live like this FOR YEARS. DECADES.

NEVER. STOP. BULLYING. BIGOTS.
“The frustration isn’t yet producing mass resignations or major internal protests, but the officers and agents described a workforce on edge, vilified by broad swaths of the public and bullied by Trump officials demanding more and more,” Nick Miroff writes.
Trump loves ICE. Its Workforce Has Never Been So Miserable.
A “mission impossible” deportation campaign has left many employees burned out and morally conflicted.

I just like to post these data from time to time to puncture the mythological aura of mid 20th c protests. They were less popular than pretty much any 21st c mass action & people criticizing them used the same lines. Protest is about people coming together, shaping narratives, & building power.

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids.
Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

Newsom and ambitious people like him want Americans to wait this out so that the power structure *as it currently exists* will be intact for them to grab when things “go back to normal.” Pushing back on power now would mean less power for them when it’s their turn. Real change is not their goal.
The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.
Don't give them one.
Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

There are ZERO riots. I am in downtown Los Angeles. There are live feeds of everything that was here and what went down in Paramount. Dudes on mini bikes making noise and people holding Fuck Ice signs etc. But no violence from protesters. None. Cannot say the same about the opposition.
Anyone saying, with any seriousness, that there is rioting in Los Angeles gets an immediate block.
Trust me, if LA was rioting, you would know.

As officials lay blame for what's happening in LA today, remember the provocations responsible were: invading neighborhoods, kidnapping loved ones, separating families, and trafficking people to foreign prisons. If the people you're blaming did not do these things, you're blaming the wrong people.
