Hey, this Bovino thing is a pathetic attempt to make all these horrors the fault of one guy, and it would be a serious, serious crisis if people fell for it. ICE needs to be abolished, bc this - terror, murder - are what it exists for. Nothing else. This is just an attempt to mollify us. Stay angry

It is very, very important to remember that YOU DID THIS. You, the people, through an organized mass movement of working people, pushed back on fascism and made the government blink.
No politician did this. A few helped, but this happened because of you, and your political actions. KEEP IT UP.

None of these Republicans and most of these Democrats are not all of a sudden “seeing the light on ICE.” They simply understand the worm turning on public opinion and saving face. They will ALL go back to voting for minority brutalization as soon as they can. You can’t keep falling for this.

The kids are all right
“Young people aren’t reading a book series from 29 years ago whose author is now famously bankrolling a global hate campaign. It seems like this is something that would be very difficult to blame on liberals, but that’s why I get the big bucks from the NYT.”

A lot of people don’t understand why horror is enjoyable, but the appeal is actually pretty simple. You watch horror to enjoy the fantasy of a world where you can be the most irritating person alive and still have six friends who want to organize a trip to an isolated location with you.

Please unfollow the altnps account. It's a do-nothing, disinfo slop mill that's trying to figure out how to Q-Anon the left for future profit, and that is not news.
AltNPS posted about Alex Pretti's murder 25 times since this morning. During that time, they spread misinformation about the shooting, lied about knowing the shooter's name, and generally flooded the zone with shit.
They're trying to milk this story for all it's worth.

I'm just enjoying this quote: "It's not a documentary; it's a film that takes you on a cinematic journey."

The altnps account is the 13th most followed account on Bluesky and has more followers than every single news outlet other than the NYT, NPR and Meidas Touch on here. They actively spread misinformation and exploit gullible old people for cash. Accounts this unethical do not deserve to exist.
Completely insane. AltNPS claimed to know the name of Alex Pretti's killer, refused to say it because "the truth always comes out," and then just deleted the post.
A man was executed on the street in my hometown, and AltNPS is using that as an excuse to vaguepost for attention.
