This should be a national shutdown
Unions and community orgs are calling for a Minnesota-wide shutdown in 10 days to protest the ferocious assault by federal immigration agents. They're saying on Jan 23, no work, no school, no shopping. SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, & others are supporting, w/ more to join. By me, Amie Stager

I beg us not to lose sight of the role queerphobia played along with misogyny. Becca Good’s tone in interacting with Ross was just like her late wife’s: calm yet lightly mocking; neither scared nor deferential; and because of that deeply, deeply subversive. katemanne.substack.com/p/renee-good...
Renee Good’s Murder was Misogyny
We cannot ignore the distinctively gendered dynamics of this—and much other—fascist violence

I’m old enough to remember the late 2000s, when redpill dudes were starting to mobilize online

various feminists and queer activists and historians wrote fairly regularly about misogyny as the canary in the coal mine of fascism

I can still hear the crickets
He shot her in the head, then called her a “fucking bitch.”

That isn’t self defense, it’s an angry execution.

That neurodivergent need to apply your morals consistently it’s hard!!! I’ve gotten fired for these
No, autistics do not “lack empathy”: “Where researchers had assumed impairment, they found autistic people applying moral principles more consistently—even to strangers, even when costly.” By Ludmila Pradlova.

What the World Got Wrong About Autistic People
For decades, autism research compared autistic people to animals, denied them moral sensitivity, and assumed autistic traits made them miserable. All wrong.

As someone who really struggles to understand overlapping voices and yelling in general, and particularly when stressed, I know that it would be so easy to “disobey orders” when several cops are screaming them all at once

Hey, CBP isn't allowed to do any of the stuff it's doing in Minneapolis even within the confines of its extremely ridiculous "100 miles from any border" jurisdiction. It's 300 miles from Canada and 160 miles to Lake Superior. They're breaking the law standing around, let alone beating up protesters.
Border Patrol typically only has legal authority within 100 mi. of the U.S. border. That raised questions when Cdr. Gregory Bovino was at the scene of the fatal shooting of Renee Good.

MPR News spoke with legal scholar César Cuauhtémoc García Hernández about that agency’s jurisdiction in Minnesota.

Renee Nicole Good stopped to film ICE in her neighborhood today and they executed her for it.

It takes an enormous amount of courage to stand there, keep filming, and scream "What the fuck, you asshole" at someone wearing a badge who just shot and killed one of your neighbors in cold blood.
I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.

This is a time for 1000s of mass meetings across the country to specifically address ICE & Border Patrol actions.

1. We need standardized agendas.
2. We need standardized teach ins - with local specificities.
3. We need mass meetings to happen in the same month.
4. Local officials must attend.

The FEDS drugged and shot Fred Hampton in bed.

Philly cops blew up a building in the 1980s and most people don't even know the MOVE bombing happened.

I think you're downplaying how normalized US death is.
If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.
A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

This man is running around acting like it's impossible for the United States to be bombed in retaliation and the entire Cold War was possible in part because that's simply not true (see also: Pearl Harbor)

Not enough discussion about the way this could end with the U.S. facing retaliatory bombing

It's amazing how one dictator Maduro is somehow under the jurisdiction of US law despite never killing an American but war criminal Netanyahu is somehow not under the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court despite killing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Gaza.

"Abolish ICE" is catchy & the established slogan, but we need to be clear that "Crush CBP" is the political end-goal we should clamor for. Or even "Demolish DHS"
I am begging everyone, but ESPECIALLY reporters, to clearly differentiate between ICE and Border Patrol. Literally begging!!
