the woman shot by ICE in brighton park today was named last week in a CBP bulletin because she was identifying federal officers online (screenshot from DHS.gov)

reminder ✨

When this all ends, and it will, there can’t be any olive branches extended, especially for ICE. Accountability, punishment, defunding, and ridicule are the only things that need to be on the menu.

EPSTEIN FILES: @aoc.bsky.social explains why Republicans won’t bring the U.S. House back into session 👇

Nah, see that’s the gaslight. Greed didn’t just magically appear in the 80s your generation voted in Reagan, gutted unions, deregulated everything, let corporations run wild, and then sat comfy while the system hardened. It is generational because y’all locked the doors behind you.

You'd be able to shuck just a little bit faster and lick that boot more efficiently (get the whole surface polished) if you just cut out the veiled language... and say what you meant.

And who knows...maybe the higher ups will reward you for it.

Jk.. they hate you too, you're just useful for now.

... Rules and Laws are meant for the people who DON'T have institutional leverage...otherwise...we wouldn't have fucking criminals **at all** in power.

Stop hiding behind "rules are rules"... and just say you don't believe "those people" should get to have any sense of humanity.

Don't be a coward.

In closing,I would like to depart with words from one of my favorite creators...

"Keep those boots outta your muthafuckin mouth... and remember that the golden rule will always remain yeehaw fuck the law"

I just like that way that rolls off the tongue.

I'm just so upset with the Black Folks here in Bronzeville specifically.

Shame on yall.. because whatever you allow your government to do to others, they will eventually do unto you...

As if we don't have 400 FUCKING YEARS OF RECIEPTS IN THIS GODDAMN COUNTRY TO PROVE THAT.

You'd think that the group of people who have had the short end of the privilege stick... to put it lightly... for 400 goddamn years would be able to clearly recognize when somethings not right...

But I digress...

Harriet saved those who knew they needed saving...

Then here the Uncle Tom Cats go, talking about "Well... Rules are Rules..."

STFU... cause our asses'll be next...

And something tells me, they are still gonna find a way to fucking shuck and jive...

"Rules are rules... I don't have to worry because I'm legal" someone said...

Yea for now..

For some... 👀

But Damn...

Are people not able to see how they are being manipulated or pawned into doing the dirty work FOR the people in power?

Just broadcast a couple videos of ICE raiding a shelter in a Black Neighborhood... "The Black's will do the racism for us... watch.." They say.

Like I wish people paused and asked themselves... who does it serve for me to hate "those people"

Hell I wish people paused and asked "Why exactly do I hate those people?"

But that ofcourse would require people to do really any level of critical thinking, which I get isn't instantly gratifying...

If you can perpetuate racism, you can be racist regardless...

You either is or you ain't... and anecdotally a lot of the people I'm coming across... is.

It only serves the people in power for us to pedestal our own identity over those of others.

And I wish more people got that...

I just don't understand... places are being raided by 🧊 right now where I live, and if you look through the comments on some of these posts...

it's like "Rules are Rules... 🤷🏾‍♀️"

What?!?! Coming from... Black People?! Considering our history.... in this country?! What?!

I'm ... at a loss for words

I used to hate seeing posts that said something along the lines of... Harriet couldn't free everybody... because I fundamentally wanted to believe that my people could be reasoned with... as an educator I feel like that's THEE golden rule... Everybody can be taught.

But I'm here to confirm...
