A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

No one is illegal on stolen land.
Immigrants are not a threat to us. White supremacy is. And if people need to flee so-called "third world countries," it's probably because we in the west made their home unsafe.
Fuck white supremacy, fuck colonialism, and fuck Donald Trump.

A very important task after dark is to go to let the dogs out, open The tailgate on my truck, and repeatedly throw the ball for like an hour or two. When I say I have to go do animal chores, I include this task, though not a “chore.”
It also is “barking time” when they tell the coyotes to F off.
