Hello Bluesky friends! My name is Dan (they/he), and I am an anthropologist and archaeologist currently working on "Pictishness"--the qualities and relevancies attached to ideas of the Picts in historical narrative, and how they are mediated by people's engagement with material remains. (1/2)

This fall has been really terrible for the world, but thankfully I can report that it's also been really terrible for me personally.

this is a very very big story because of the apparently totally fake story ICE/DHS put out about what happened.

ICE is doing a hell of a lot of harm in the Chicago area *right now.* I don’t mean to trivialize the national guard stuff, it absolutely is an irresponsible escalation, but the guard-centric convo around this really does understate what’s going on without any guardsmen.

Are you KIDDING ME. I was there, governor. I was face to face with your goons. Where were you?

The "unified command" at Broadview has been such a disaster. The village is broadly anti-ICE and the individual ISP officers definitely do not want to be doing this. But now that they're on one side (with the feds) and we're on the other, they're gonna do what cops do.

Yuuuuup. I've been very supportive of Pritzker, but now I've been face to face with his goons. He needs to deal with this asap or all his words are empty.

Moreover, "they're going to get you hurt" is just a different way to say "if those guys (who we *claim to know* are not real protesters) do something, we're going to shoot *you*."

Anyway, just thought this was worth reporting. Stay safe, don't fall for their tricks.

Now, I remain agnostic as to whether paid agitators actually exist. I'm sure there are documented cases (though the question remains--paid by whom?). But I am absolutely sickened by the vile attempt by the feds to get us to turn against ourselves. We did not fall for it.

Yesterday at Broadview, while a group of us were recuperating across 25th, away from the action, federal agents starting frantically telling us that "those two guys [behind you] are paid agitators! They're going to get you hurt!"

I realize it probably wasn't @govpritzker.illinois.gov's intent -- but it appears that by providing state police to Broadview, it freed up more militarized ICE units to go tear gas people in neighborhoods.

ICE just tear gassed people near the grocery store Rico fresh on armitage- there are helicopters over our houses and armed agents stopping people in the streets, Walmart, Home Depot, all the places people congregate in Humboldt park, Logan square, and hermosa

So why are state troopers (co trolled by the governor) beating the shit out of folks at the Broadview ICE facility today? Or have they defected to
iCE and no longer recognize the governor as their Commander in
chief?

Greg Bovino and Noem are doing Tictok videos over at the Broadview death camp. That's where you can find Noem. Your police are also getting famous with both of them joining in the videos and brutalization of the community & peaceful protesters. JB you enjoy pressers & cameras. Head on over.

Illinois State Police getting violent with faith leaders, community members and peaceful protestors, on behalf of ICE, at the Broadview, IL ICE facility this morning

They were literally directing traffic so that ICE vehicles could enter and exit. They kept protesters off public streets to do this. This officer removed his name badge and would not answer when I asked for his name.
