Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy
This is from Georgia Fort’s video.

DEA?!? Gotta be a “task force.”

church protests are poor strategy and I do not like sectarianism, but one of my most sectarian opinions is the denomination of the protested church up here -- whose 19th c. origins are political and lie in a desire to preserve chattel slavery -- is scarcely more spiritually serious than Scientology

I don’t claim to have invented this, though I don’t think I got it from anywhere, but I’m seeing a lot more people calling the “Trump regime” now and I feel massively vindicated in doing so from day one. Try this one on for size too: “Acting President Trump.”

Lmao they're finally getting it I guess
James O’Keefe responds to a comment

“Figured they (ICE protesters) were being paid…”

O’Keefe:

“No, it's more terrifying than that. It's not transactional.

They actually believe in their cause.

That truth is going to be hard for most people to understand or accept.”

a not insignificant number of people on Threads seem to believe the snow storm was The Government's attempt to refreeze the Leviathan, the world-eating serpent, which was getting loose (to eat the world, I assume)

Thinking Russia will easily overrun Ukraine's "they/them" army because a Russian soldier did shirtless pushups in a recruitment ad is basically the same as thinking ICE would easily dominate the "weak, woke libs" of Minnesota because MAGA posts about masculinity and hype videos with hard rock.

Lots of people pointing this out but this is basically the corollary to the way that simply describing the news that is actually happening makes you sound insane to most people: for the same reason, only satirical papers can get away with accurate headlines.

ICE detain yet another minor child—chase him down his own street and tackle him to pavement.

"I am legal! I am legal!" he cries over and over in Spanish.

Agent pins the boy down in snow—he desperately tries to keep his exposed hands from freezing at -25°F wind chill temperature.

I can't put into words the feeling of watching our government, a hive of evil antisocial filth, the absolute worst humanity has to offer, colliding with the best. Ordinary people trying to help each other, risking everything to stand up for what's plainly, unambiguously fair and right. It's unreal

this is a fake problem. no one is saying this to regular, offline people who are coming around. they’re saying it to people who are engaged in professional political analysis who committed professional malpractice by scolding people who saw what was coming.

no, those people shouldn’t get a break.
Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?

MAGA military geniuses are talking about Minnesota protestors like they are the Iraqi insurgency, the Taliban, and the Viet Cong all rolled into one.

Following the Kent State massacre in May 1970, a Gallup poll showed that 58% of Americans thought the shootings were justified. The night *before* the killings, Ohio's GOP governor described the student protesters this way: "They're the worst type of people that we harbor in America."
