american liberals are fine with millions of deportations as long as they happen quietly and the police don't hurt any white people. proud of it, really
Obama deported 3 million illegal immigrants during his time in office and I don’t remember a single scene like this.

Hamas are not some intangible force out in the aether. they, along with the PFLP and many other groups, are Palestinians resisting occupation and genocide. to condemn them is to hold the pro-genocide position.

Ok now condemn the illegal sale of Palestinian land
As I said earlier today, chants in support of a terrorist organization have no place in our city. We will continue to ensure New Yorkers’ safety entering and exiting houses of worship as well as the constitutional right to protest.

If I am ever killed by the armed Nazis marching through these streets I hereby ban libs from crying about how my death needs to be independently mourned as if it’s not related to the hundred other Nazi tendencies of the federal government.
Update: I am informed that there was a DSA rally in which all possible other causes were dragged in, and a very left acquaintance said: Jeez, I’m leaving.
Sigh.
We should be able to have vigils that focus on this one event, not just for big tent reasons but out of respect for someone who has DIED.

Boston area people: is there a vigil or demonstration for Renee Good?
Also, how does one get on the mailing lists that tell you about such things without having to ask Bluesky? I only got here a few months ago, and I have not yet found them.

The thing is ICE has killed multiple people this past year, but it wasnt seen as a problem at large because they were all Black and brown people.
ICE killing people didnt become a major issue until it was a white person.

I'm sorry, but I just think it's very telling when we differentiate between ICE's killing of American citizens versus undocumented immigrants. And I'm seeing that a lot right now.

OK final post on this cause I don't have much to add and I want to give people space to grieve - be angry etc.

Both will be unhelpful in the moment and later on. It's hard, but take it slow, plan actions you can do to help, and then do them.

fucking sick of being told that he's one of the good ones
Governor Walz says he's prepared to deploy the Minnesota National Guard if protests become violent in reaction to ICE fatally shooting a woman in Minneapolis.
"We will not take the bait," adds Walz, saying he's also angry but demonstrations should remain lawful.

Police so often use what’s basically the “fog of war” excuse that you hear from war criminals, which is at once deeply disturbing and revealing: they are an occupying force, at war with the people they ostensibly “serve and protect.” The armed muscle of a criminal empire that calls its crimes “law.”

I love when people can’t conceptualize probability at scale. Say you have a 99.9% success rate with ladders. I’d say you're a #1 ladder expert! :)
The catch? There’s 50 million of you, averaging 10 ladders per year. That means 500,000 of you fell off a ladder (true yearly stat).

Why show up to work at all then? At minimum, as the opposition party you say "This wouldn't happen if we were in power and if you give us power here's how we'll impose consequences on the president's lawbreaking." Have they outlined that in any real way?
A lot of people are mad at Schumer for saying this. But he's right. Democrats don't control a single branch of government and they can't pass anything. Only Republicans can rein in Trump because they control both chambers of Congress. Democrats have no cards to play here.
Schumer: "Republicans must -- if there was ever a time, they must step up to the plate. This is the time. And if they don't, they're gonna feel the heat from their constituents."

That said, there’s a subset of cis folk who see themselves as “allies” but won’t take any of this seriously unless the reporting comes from cishet people, so this is useful for those folk.
