And while we’re at it, ask yourself why your favorite liberal commentator or personality is condemning ICE but never venturing to criticize Democrats and leaders who aren’t using their power to stop them and ask yourself if there’s a financial reason for it.

Republicans serve the openly antidemocratic rich and express the rabid need to bring people to submission through gleeful brutality.

Democrats serve the rich who want to maintain a semblance of decorum and civility while their pursuit of more wealth and power necessitates creeping fascism.

Step outside the Red/Blue paradigm and notice that both parties serve the wealth class’s differing constituencies which agree only on the need to concentrate wealth and the requirement of fascistic force to continue that operation.

This isn’t hard. It just takes recognizing.

Corporate Democrats don’t want to abolish ICE because they helped make it what it is today and they focus on training because they want to retain a robust force but would rather they weren’t so openly fascistic

We’ve been in a good cop bad cop situation our entire lives and it’s past time to see it

Moving further leftward means moving out of what makes you comfortable and complacent.

Who has to suffer so that you can live your unbothered, comfortable life? Once you recognise that, you realise that moving into the discomforting unknown is the only equitable way forward.
honestly think one of the big problems between liberals and leftists is that for the longest time liberals didn’t think a position further left than them (the right leaning center) even existed. hope they know now.

the grace, politeness, forgiveness, and understanding of liberals (who think all violence is the same violence) has allowed for the survival and retrenchment of dangerous & antiquated ideologies with no place in civil society. it didn't have to be this way, but they chose for us.

we didn't finish denazification. we didn't finish desegregation. we didn't finish reconstruction. every opportunity for transformative change was deliberately sabotaged by american leaders who knew their wealth would not survive a world freed from eugenics, white supremacy, and war profiteering.
people do understand that the nuremberg trials were largely show trials to distract from the fact that the US was poaching any high profile nazis that were beneficial to their cause & that denazification in the west sectors didn't really take off

anyone you ever thought was doing “purity tests” was right and you need to shut up about it for ever
All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.

the kids and the commies are always right, nobody ever listens to them and nobody ever learns a single lesson from being completely wrong about everything all the time because capitalism gives them headpats and belly rubs for refusing to change

Reminder that the Democratic response to the Floyd murder was significantly larger police budgets nation wide and even more military equipment.

Every Democratic leader of the last decade has failed catastrophically and must be removed from power for that party to have any hope of truly resisting.

Friedersdorf and Singal are now attempting to distance themselves from their good friends and colleagues. Rats leaving the sinking ship. Too bad they bear full responsibility for their choices and will face public judgment for the rest of their lives!

The best thing that folks in the UK can do if they’re feeling inspired by folks in the US is to get connected with your local immigration raid watch and other migrant justice groups.

Labour has only been emboldened by the increase of anti-immigrant violence in the US - don’t let it get any worse.
Once again tapping my sign: ICE exist in the UK 🚨 They have had arrest powers since 2000. This government - not a hypothetical future one - is working harder than ever before to raid homes and businesses.

So this is the BBC that I keep being told we have to just put up with, disgusting lies and violent propaganda and all, because they make good telly sometimes and their reporting is slightly better than the tabloid bullshit sold elsewhere in this country?

Once you understand that you're dealing with murderous liars, you stop entertaining what they say as possibly credible and legitimate. The fight against them is about stopping them from terrorizing and killing by any means, not winning debates about your reality versus theirs.
