I can see just fine with you in my life
There by my side as it starts to fade
I know this can't be right stuck in a dream
A nightmare full of sorrow

It is high key incomprehensible that people will talk about Waco before police literally dropping bombs on black people in Philadelphia in 1985.

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files.
It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

The files revealed secret operations, like armed patrols rounding up migrants and the surveillance of a student reporter.
There were debates over whether to commit acts of terrorism.
And they gave a unique, remarkably intimate window into questions like: Why do so many cops join militias?

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

NEW: X has become a hotbed of neo-Nazi content under Elon Musk. We identified the operators of four anonymous accounts that share racist, antisemitic, and neo-Nazi content. Three live in Texas. Musk has replied to two of them. One works for the Navy.

Revealed: the Operators Behind Four Major Neo-Nazi X Accounts
Anonymity has long been a tactic used by extremists to spread their ideology while avoiding social consequences, from Klansmen hoods to online pseudonyms.

Anyway, 1 in 3 Black people know a trans person, 60% of Black people agree that trans people are discriminated against, and there is no consensus on what should be done about that.

The Matt Gaetz report frenzy is exactly the same as the pee tapes in 2016. We know the guy is a child rapist, and so is the US president. What we need to know, now more than ever, is if anyone at the DOJ or FBI has any backbone to do the needful.

As far as the u.s. is concerned, the Black population is a decently managed exploitable labor force who they can punish through imprisonment and murder with impunity, so there's no need for mass genocide at this time.
