Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

It also loops back around to a way to defend male abusers by believing men are destined to abuse, which makes them unaccountable. And then the logic flips to how women should behave to avoid abusive men, when that’s victim-blaming. We should instead think about how to prevent abusive behavior

Anyway, if you want to know why we live in the world we do, it has a lot to do with the fact that we live in a culture that is structured and predisposed across the board to protect privileged people and specifically white cis men who leverage abuse for gain or pleasure.

If this administration can manufacture prosecutions against journalists or the Chair of the Federal Reserve for daring to stand up to them… then what is the meaningful difference between us and an authoritarian nation?

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

No. They don't. You'll get executed for the crime of being armed while not a Federal agent. You'll make the tactical decision to not shoot.
They allowed insecure people to feel powerful.

it is correct for state officials to call for peace, they should not encourage extralegal violence
but the best way to convince people that extralegal violence is not a good option is to enforce laws against the murderers killing their friends, family, and neighbors

they've been given verbal immunity from the Vice President and practical immunity from the FBI
if state laws won't be enforced then there's no laws left, and the only options left on the table at that point are not ideal
