I am an American! Raised to treat others with kindness and respect. Taught that if I worked hard, I could do anything I wanted. My heart breaks and my anger rages as everyday I see videos of people being disappeared who could have been my grandparents long ago😡

Mark Peterson’s black-and-white images of ICE agents evoke film noir and the urban-crime photography of the 1930s and ’40s. “If someone is doing everything right, and then they still get detained, it’s a crime scene,” he said.

Most plastics are not recyclable, largely because there is no market for materials labeled 3 through 7.

Big Plastic wants you to think you can recycle your yogurt container
Those numbered labels, vetted by private interests, can be misleading.

Unfortunately, the oligarchs have a stranglehold on the western governments that could enact such laws and have duped the voting masses. Their only goal is to see how much money they can accumulate before they die

Not every life can be spared from climate change, unfortunately, but many more could be saved if elected officials stopped pretending that climate change isn’t happening or that they’re powerless to do something about it.

I cannot stress how popular revolutionary ideas actually are. Most people believe in fairness, care, public ownership, peace, and an economy that doesn’t kill the planet. but we’ve been taught to doubt these instincts.

And remember, taxpayers are the ones who pay the settlements in these lawsuits, which ran over $200,000,000 for the NYPD just in the last year.

I wonder if the costs came out of their own budget or retirement funds they might be a little more circumspect.
New Yorkers scream out each officer’s lawsuits against them for excessive force and more upon their city, right to their faces while protesting.
