incredibly bold to screen capture one of the most public and long established black abolitionist and not include them in the conversation… maybe you should reflect on how that choice reflects the context of your argument on the social and political identity of white supremacy in this nation.

my bad, didn’t realize it was easy answers only…

snark aside, many of us live in fear and precarity because most of us want to hold onto a system that is not broken, but working as intended. we have over 200 years of evidence of the failure of reform. but what’s another 200 years i guess.

or, and hear me out, we stop building our institutions around nursing a billionaire generating system of racial capitalism and instead end a federal system that was built on the foundation of human bondage and genocide?

cops are not resisting and certainly not arresting ICE… mostly, whether it is the local, county, or state variety - they are aiding ICE in disappearing people and intimidating and dispersing resistance. they are not fighting over the same territory, they are working together towards the same goal

unlawful force? what a joke. for all that are still waiting for the police to save you from the police: you will find out very quickly which side you are on when the police beat, gas, and shoot you in the streets. abolition is the only answer.

you can’t have a democracy and a supreme court. one party has always understood that, the other just uses it as a fundraising mechanic.

we are almost there, if only stephen could then muse on who exactly created the conditions and terrors of their broken homelands… it’s right there!

there is literally no reason for the military.

a real president that tried to instigate world war 3, exponentially grow the surveillance state, and neutralize black civil rights activists to “fight communism” 🙄

what you are describing are police. the cops, the cia, fbi, prison wardens, soldiers, on and on, all part of a sprawling carceral system that very much does the same things. the only thing that changes is you comfort with who they violently oppress.

i hate to be that guy, but the united states has a real bad habit of letting the civil war slavers and ww2 nazis back into “polite” society. they literally let trump and right wingers get a second bite of the apple after a violent coup but four years ago…

go fuck yourself you capitulating fascist toad
November 10, 2025 at 6:52 PM
how about we just abolish ICE… why is everyone talking about transparency and accountability. don’t fall for the reformist trap. start now. we don’t need a smiling neighborhood ICE agent. we need the end of ICE. abolish ICE and all their fellow police.

maybe your campaign position could be to wear a mask to protect yourself and your communities

im not sure what it is going to take for people to recognize that democrats in general, and chuck & hakeem specifically, give zero fucks about any of us getting the raw end of state power… its the same power they fantasize about controlling.

Reid said of Butker. “He’s a talented kid, mentally tough…”

butker, the mentally tough professional kicker, is also challenged by the idea of women and gay people existing in public life 🧐
