MTG on the Epstein scandal—"elites doing horrible things and getting away with it"—may have an egalitarian air about it, but only if you fail to read it alongside the rest of her conspiracism. She's talking about the Jews. She's always talking about the Jews. flaminghydra.com/marjorie-tay...

I've seen refugee aid efforts defeat multi-year occupations by regional / national police forces who deployed 30x the amount of resources. Hell I've been part of that.
It is *very* possible.
ICE's budget has a limit.
Make them use it.
ICE's morale has a limit.
Make them lose it.

If the murder of Renee Nicole Good makes you say “abolish ICE,” but the murder of George Floyd didn’t make you say “abolish cops,” ask yourself why and try to learn from it

One of the core purposes of right-wing media is to rewrite your memory and reprogram your moral response to an event you saw with your own eyes. George Floyd died of a heart attack. Jan 6 was a peaceful picnic. This process has already begun
THERE IS VIDEO
I really do not want to recommend to everyone a video of a person being shot but there is video from multiple angles
why not cut the crap and just publish "this paper supports random state murder, it makes us feel good, kill kill kill"? same exact meaning, less embarrassing

If the Dems started calling for the people to exercise their 2A rights to carry, we could also power entire cities with the energy generated from Republicans melting down
A ruling left of center party giving everyone permission to get AR-15s and FGC9s and Ruger RXMs with full mags in places like Chicago and LA while Republicans become the CUCKED party of "well do you REALLY need thoooose come onnnn!" would be such a delicious Uno reversal.

every couple years, newcomers to the movement think "THIS is finally it, the moment when the dam breaks and the whole system is overthrown"
and when it doesn't happen they lose patience and get disillusioned and drop out of movement work
gotta build for long term

There's honestly been some pretty good news coverage tonight on TV regarding today's events. It's not a coincidence.
Like half a dozen prominent Democrats finally came out this afternoon and said ICE is terrorist trash led by a secretary who should be impeached and it flipped the whole narrative.

ICE’s entire mission is murderous.
They routinely murder detainees in the shadows.
Now they’ve murdered someone in broad daylight.
They will continue to murder until we organize and build enough political power to stop them.
It’s that simple.
No one is coming to save us.

There are people who don't know, who didn't know. Moments like these are when they learn, and a window opens for people who want to turn their hunger for justice into action, for our numbers to increase. Stay mad and don't get jaded, in my opinion, get the newly passionate on board. 2/2

Many local groups have begun planning protests and actions against ICE in other cities.
You'll probably feel better joining an action than doom scroling for a snuff video, just saying.

Real talk, the threat we pose to the globe should be a wake up call for a return to internationalism - the fascist governments love helping each other out, but every nation's leftists struggle alone for the most part.

I spent an excessive number of years moderating a gaming forum and I learned a great deal about community spaces and cultivation, whether I wanted to or not. I have critical advice for anyone who runs a game store or gaming convention. Please share this thread with people who run those things.

One of the most insidious dynamics out there is that actual dangerous things (serial abuse, rampant bigotry, open corruption) get dismissed as petty drama while actual petty drama gets treated as a danger.
