Having a real bio here made me sad. I did things in places.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

in a video about AI music I just watched, the beginning is a clip from a vigil after Renee Good's murder. the creator admits they don't have the full context but then just proceeds to critique an expression of shock and collective heartbreak. for a full five minutes.

do you ever wonder who left you in charge of your life? like surely someone should have stopped me from making all of my decisions. as a child of 47 now, I'm not ready to be an adult.

One of the things I struggle with in the modern era is the Mayfly Memory Model. So many canaries in the coal mine of hate and no one remembers them. But they suffered and died in front of you. Amber Lynn Coplin and Bianca Devins were murdered by men who bragged online and posted pics of their bodies

I am usually a very behind the scenes person but I stepped outside of my comfort zone because I hope reading this will inspire other people just to step up and do the thing.

You never know what your impact can be.

School pickups, diaper runs and mutual aid funds are central to how many Minnesotans are challenging the militarization of their state.

mutual aid is just 3 anarchists in a trenchcoat most of the time
Going to actually lose my mind at establishment libs being like "what works better, mutual aid and cop watching or my stereotype of anarchists?"

Sir, anarchists are absolute sluts for mutual aid and cop watching. It's like 90% of their deal
Lord help me, I keep this man muted for a reason. But

Black block is a TACTIC, not an organization. It's not about "fighting them in the street," it's about avoiding identification by the state.

Which is not unwise right now.

AND FURTHER:

A lot of folks organizing mutual aid ARE THOSE SAME FOLKS

Abolish ICE.

There’s no reforming it.

There’s no compromise.

There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

I need yall to get it through yall heads that the immediate action plans WILL NOT BE ONLINE. Stop asking people what they are doing and getting upset when they either tell you to read or organize. Those irl venues are where the actions are being taken or even planned at the very least

It is not about training, it is not about newly loose qualifications to join, it is not even about Stephen Miller and Noem and the rest of them. These are experienced CBP agents, one of whom is supposedly ELITE, and this is how they responded.

this is such a problem with the left. bigotry exists across all political ideologies. full stop. this attitude is poison. we cannot create a better future for anyone while pretending the reality of the present is different from what it is.
Correct, I have a brain and sense and so no, I see every real leftist I know are accepting of all races and religions, etc. This shit is disgusting, and you fucking know you don't ask in good faith. Eat shit.

Federal agents tear-gassed families and children today in Portland.

There are two approaches to counterinsurgency strategy: either you try to win the hearts and minds of the general population, or you set out to intimidate or exterminate them.

This administration has clearly chosen the latter.

Marimar Martinez is a hero.

She was shot 5 times by ICE.

The agent told her to “do something b*tch” before opening fire.

He later bragged “5 shots, 7 holes”.

DHS tried to smear her reputation but video footage vindicated her.

Next week she will testify in Washington about ICE’s brutality.

I know people mostly don't know the etymology of esoteric left ideas but "wrecker" was a word used by the NKVD to justify purging anarchists, union leaders, social democrats and other opposed socialists, and I don't trust anyone who uses the word, which only persists in ML cult-party formations
