Bigotry is not an illness. Illnesses are not moral failings and chronically ill people are not moral failures. Your ableism is showing.

Usually I can tell why certain memories are traumatic; with others, it’s like “wait, why the hell is my PTSD fixated on this?”

Like, talk your talk about Philly or whatever, but put some RESPECT on the name of the Minnesotans who have given everything. I’m in awe of them.
The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember:
- Organized a city wide general strike
- Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence
- Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE
- Flipped public opinion against ICE

Dear neighbor,
There’s a ton of ICE activity today in South Minneapolis and across Phillips today. Please stay on alert and be careful.
We need folks to observe. Please continue to show up and when you do please bring a pair for safety.

My heart is crying in pain as I watch my 5 kids and my wife—who suffers from mitral valve prolapse—fall apart. They are trembling from the cold, unable to sleep because of the relentless shivering. We urgently need $200 to shelter & tent

Note that Novavax (Nuvaxovid), which is the only non-mRNA covid vax in the US, is already restricted - to those 65 & older, or 12-64 with at least one risk factor - & the FDA has demanded more trials.
So if you or your kids are due for a covid booster, you might want to go grab it ASAP.

Cheerful. Funny. Gentle.
And still, per sources, Trump officials are urging staff to call him a "terrorist."

People already working hard to prove how perfect Alex Pretti was. To show he didn't "deserve" to be killed. But it's a trap folks. You're only feeding into a dynamic where people who are considered lesser get no protection. You don't have to be an Alex Pretti to deserve to live.

ICE isn’t an aberration, but the product of the militarized police state the US built at home and abroad. The shooting of an unarmed man isn’t new, just how brazenly this violence is carried out. Fight ICE, but to truly protect our communities, we must dismantle the system that made it possible.
