The Hate Monger — Jack Kirby, 1963
Comic book panel from The Fantastic Four #21. surrounded by Flames is a man in a purple peaked Hood, the sort of peaked Hood I associate with Ku Klux Klan costumes. The man, called The Hate-Monger is at a podium ranting to an audience: "WE MUST DRIVE ALL THE FOREIGNERS BACK WHERE THEY CAME FROM! WE MUST SHOW NO MERCY TO THOSE WE HATE!" "REED, IT'S UNBELIEVABLE! HE SEEMS TO HAVE THE CROWD IN A TRANCE! THEY-THEY'RE ACTUALLY AGREEING WITH HIS UNAMERICAN SENTIMENTS!" Spoiler: Underneath the hood, the Hate-Monger turns out to be Adolf Hitler (or maybe a clone)

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.

Hundreds of kids are still detained.

We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Catching up on the open sewer of gutter racism emitted last night from the President on down through White House apparatchiks like Loomer, Lake, etc, etc, and I have to say it gives off a strong reek of @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social’s “I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win”.

From my POV in the USA, I'd like to see Puerto Rican statehood because it would be good for the USA.

Whether it would be good for Puerto Ricans is up for Puerto Ricans to decide.
