The people united will never be divided
I'm not going to post screenshots for obvious reasons but I have been alerted that a bunch of the top posts in r/MassiveCock are anti-ICE now and anyone who defends ICE in comments is getting yelled down lol

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
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.

I am sad to announce that this works and actually it’s good to be away from social media for several hours.
alright, gonna be invoking dramatic measures to keep from doomscrolling too much over the next few days - will still be around but trying to ease myself off of obsessively scrolling as I was all last night

Down to our final FOUR days! By Thursday, we need to help single mom Maha & kids stay housed another month. We're still matching your donations!

Tired of seeing this appeal every few weeks? The best way to help is by clicking "monthly" on a coffee. No one has! 256/815 chuffed.org/project/savi...

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!
They just figured it out.

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.
Immigration Enforcement raids at the highest level in UK history

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?
This mendacious drivel should be a resigning issue, for both the author and anyone who thought it was right to publish it

He could have said this months ago, but people had to die. He could listened to voters, experts, other members of his caucus, but instead he waiting until people were already dead.....he ignored every warning and waited until the flood was up to his chest before saying "better plug that leak."

state agents with a mandate for violence have been and continue to be the problem. brave civilians who reject their artificial authority in favor of community and solidarity are the solution

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.

Please unfollow and block these ‘alt’ whatever accounts - the last thing we need are these grifters taking up space and energy from where our attentions should be most directed.
AltNPS posted about Alex Pretti's murder 25 times since this morning. During that time, they spread misinformation about the shooting, lied about knowing the shooter's name, and generally flooded the zone with shit.

They're trying to milk this story for all it's worth.

This is it, at the end of the day. Like, we can theorise and critique (and god knows I do far too much of it as someone who is so far away right now) but it all comes down to this.

We’re gonna win and a new world is gonna be possible.
It is my home, they are my people. I believe in them. There is no other way!!

The point is not "told you so" but to recognize how your reactions are shaped by racial narratives and normalization, and you can take this opportunity to overcome and denaturalize that hardness and cruelty within yourself, to deconstruct the whiteness that makes you defend the indefensible

The pain and the outrage is correct and just and I'm glad everyone can see and understand it here, and this is also already what BLM was, if you argued for training, police reform or body cams instead of abolition this is what you sounded like, this is why people were so mad at you

Do not slow yourself to be drawn into a discussion on pacifism at this time. You will never be passive and compliant enough to not be a threat in the face of state violence.

I really want to stress how meaningful and heartening it is as an American living abroad to see folks on the streets back in the US, keeping each other safe and cared for in so many different ways.

It’s weird to be so far away and yet still so connected emotionally to what’s happening.

Democrats say "Trump's ICE" like they want their voters to think Dem ICE will be the reverse of this when it will just be the current model with better messaging and a few new superficial "safety rails"

"ICE out of Minnesota"

ok @schumer.senate.gov, where should they go?

Do you think they will stop murdering people if they move to California, or Washington?

Are you proud of brokering deals to fund them?
Are Democratic voters proud?

I suppose your GOP friends are, which is all you care about
