Dear lie-spewing, woman-hating, Trump-loving, science-denying, Bible-thumping, Christ-ignoring, Confederate-flag-waving, racist Republican assholes,

This is all your fault. Fuck you.

Sincerely,
Me

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

Trump is a doddering old man, barely aware of his own surroundings, getting worked over by underlings.

“The big thing here about ICE is, it’s politics entering into the neighborhood.”

ICE raids have brutalized Chicago-area communities & Trump has threatened to send the National Guard to Illinois. But organizers are coming together to fight back & protect their neighbors, writes @nberlat.bsky.social.

The more that is added, the less chance of it ever happening.

Get something, anything, on the books first.

Then add stuff.

Cash sales ban will provide the data needed to add more restrictions.

Notice the pattern:

Claimed "drug" boat.

Vessel obliterated and sunk.

No evidence left.

War porn released through right wing media.

They are normalizing the killing of brown people.

Claimed "ANTIFA Terrorist"

To be Killed by ICE.

They will normalize killing Protesters.

Believing that easier access to guns
leads to less gun violence
is like believing less access to birth control
leads to fewer abortions

We need a national ban on cash sales for guns and ammo.

Credit card and ID check for every purchase.

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

Another reason to mask at protests, aside from COVID safety and protection from doxxing, is that a lot of responsible documenters don't want to publish protesters' faces (esp without their consent) right now. Your face being in a shot may prevent people from sharing a worthwhile image publicly.
