I vote because I have always voted and I believe in democracy and would like to see it happen some day. and because it amuses me. this is the most rational possible attitude towards voting
idk what comes after but I don't think its a stable fascist era

Add in the fact that people are increasingly aware of the... interesting... nature of Iranian opposition groups, esp the monarchists, and many on the left have seen Iranian monarchists waving Israeli flags at Palestine protests and loudly threatening to kill, beat, or rape them...

There's a large percentage of ICE and Border Patrol receuits with prior military or law enforcement experience who already fit the "us vs. them" culture of these agencies.

They see immigrants, darker-skinned people, leftists, and queers as invaders β€” not fully human and deserving of abuse.

It's more accurate to say that ICE and Border Patrol are easy jobs for people who did their "four and the door" military service.

Federal 1811's (criminal investigators with HSI or DEA) tend to come from the Navy. Border Patrol is heavily favored by former Marines.

I'm not sure where this idea comes from that ICE and Border Patrol couldn't hack it in the "real" military. The data does not support this; in fact both of these agencies recruit heavily from the military. A very large number of Border Patrol agents and Deportation Officers are former infantry.

It's another embarrassing outcome for Jeanine Pirro, who tried to "make a felon out of a homeless man with nothing but a cat toy keychain."

Two white friends tail me home if it's outside the hours when people are out and about. I'm damn near third generation Minnesotan. It's not just "you're a citizen you'll be fine." I'm a black woman alone. Who knows what they will do.
I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Police do this all the time with training. Unfortunately Breonna Taylor isn't here to talk about that. Because they murdered her.
Federal agents raided the wrong house in connection with missing guns left inside an ICE vehicle. The apartment they were supposed to search was on the floor above. The door was kicked in, and the home left in shambles.

Those 47 days of training are proving to be too few.

To make this point even clearer, not that it should matter, but it's never just transphobia. There isn't a single transphobe alive who otherwise shares your nice views. I dare you to name a single case where that's true.
An antifascist popular front and transphobia are incompatible. A big tent that includes transphobes isn't a big tent, it's a tent with a hole in the roof.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: β€œNo, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

I love Lenin and I love Stalin and in a small way I do appreciate Trotsky for his role in keeping the USSR safe as general so. Idk I think it's time to not take such a partisan approach to socialism. It's not a football match, it's millions of lives at stake

One of the things about people showing up to protest for the first time, that many, many armchair theorists don't grasp, is the effect of seeing what happens with your own eyes, then seeing how media covers it, and what is said ABOUT YOU by media and political personalities/office holders.
