To everyone spreading doomerism about ICE: It won't be without pain and sacrifice but heroes WILL rise to the occasion and fight back. Real Americans fight Nazis, we don't cower to them. Whether your approach is peaceful or not, it is them who should fear us NOT the other way around. #resist #ice

THIS IS NOT NORMAL: A U.S. citizen and veteran told ICE who he was.

They broke his window.
Dragged him out.
Detained him anyway.

It didn’t matter that he served this country. It didn’t matter that he belonged here. The truth didn’t matter. Only domination did.

Didn't Nazis target communists in street fights and ambush them a bunch? Like any kind of socialism or communism is often referred to by neo nazis as some kind of Jewish conspiracy?? How is a dem socialist "a spiritual Kristallnacht" but the white nationalist antisemite freaks on j6 wasnt?

If I may be a contrarian here I'd argue that the victory of a democratic socialist is not "like a spiritual Kristallnacht."

“I feel like last night’s NYC election result is like a spiritual Kristallnacht. It proved Jew hatred is now OK,” posted Jill Kargman, a Jewish writer and actress.

@Claud9.
The 'War on Terror' killed 4.5 million people.
It destroyed Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Iraq, Pakistan, Syria, and Somalia. They lied. Millions died.
The playbook never changes:
1. Demonize
2. Manufacture consent
3. Profit from war
4. Impose governments to advance U.S. interests.
While arms dealers and warmongers like Trump & Netanyahu get rich, entire nations are left in ruins. And if you don't think this impacts US citizens- well, just think of all the valuable uses for your TAX dollars: healthcare, education, jobs, housing.
This is a war of aggression to sustain colonial and U.S. imperialist powers. Nothing to do with "security."
Hands Off Iran! Hands Off Palestine! U.S. Out of the Middle East!

CLARIFICATION :

The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.

They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY

So spread this around

They can be texted. They can be called.

MASSIVE good news for trans people in the United States.

A federal judge has just granted class action status to transgender people looking to update their passports.

This means that very shorty, the window will open to update your passports with the correct gender marker.

Say what you will…but I loved the movie “BabyGirl”. Sexuality/sex/intimacy not portrayed as a monolith is powerful. Don’t want to say more without including spoilers. So, just gonna say I’m not typically a Nicole Kidman fan, but seeing her in this role was 🔥🔥🔥

When you’re protesting tomorrow, spare a thought for Alma Bowman and Rodney Taylor.

Spare a thought for all the disabled immigrants who’ve lost their lives at the hands of ICE.

For all the detainees being disabled by the cruel & inhumane policies.

Fight for them:

Disabled People are Being Mistreated in ICE Detention Facilities

Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

My team and I at the Crowd Counting Consortium (@[email protected], Soha Hammam, & Chris Shay) have a new piece out: wagingnonviolence.org/2025/06/amer.... In it, we show that through May 2025, the size and scale of anti-Trump protests have dwarfed those in 2017. 🧵

A line chart with a blue line showing a large growth of protest events from Jan 20 - May 31, 2025, and a green line showing the relatively modest growth of protest events during the same period in 2017.
