Aro/ace, they/them. Basically all I do on any social media is repost cooler people. Trans rights are human rights and abortion is healthcare.

Elon being adamant about allowing a CSAM generator on his web site starts to make more sense when you realize it's not about "free speech" but instead "you fuckers can't tell me what to do."
He approaches everything in tantrum mode.

The fact that all these second amendment "we need ahr guns to resist guvment overreach" losers are now cheering on ICE versus citizens who are standing up to the government (with NO weapons) tells you everything you need to know about the hollowness of their ideology. Sad little scared boys.

This is so real, they tried it this morning in Bloomington. They stopped a man, people started honking horns, they split up to fuck with everyone else, which brought more attention and more noise, people got out of their cars and started filming, they left. They're cowards.
obviously not in the sense that it’s stopping everything, but they are being stalled so much by trying to find places where they aren’t watched, wasting so much manpower and resources on crowd control and even arresting observers they know will just get released. i am so proud of everyone

Hi hello, the Toronto Sun's email is [email protected] in case you'd like to inquire as to how they feel about their Ottawa Bureau Chief making these kinds of statements about innocent women being shot by militarized thugs in the street! Let's make his weekend extra fun :)

Finally, it's wrong AS A MATTER OF ETIQUETTE. Entering a total stranger's discussion and leading with your private anxiety is as off-putting in social media replies as it would be in real life. If you wouldn't interrupt a stranger at a party to announce that America is doomed, don't do it here.

the government's paramilitary stormtroopers quite literally went from murdering a woman to tear gassing high school children in the same day.
Kind of wild there has been almost no coverage of the fact that the federal government unleashed chemical weapons against literal kids *at school*.

Please understand what it means when journalists are evacuating their family members out of town.
In any other country, we would be approaching "foreign sanctions" territory

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

ICE apparently lacks capacity to oppress more than one city at a time.
This is performative authoritarianism.
performative authoritarianism that has killed people, yes. It’s not a joke.
But it is also incapable of any sort of meaningful authoritarian consolidation.
They lack the numbers to win.

Gonna take this moment to once again point out that the way that this fascist stormtrooper used his "less lethal" weapon (shooting people in the face) is contra not only to the instructions for operation of the weapon provided by the manufacturer, but to their own training in how to use the weapon.

THE OPEN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF GRIEF IS A POLITICAL ACT.
One of the things that genuinely shocked me as I read through surveillance logs for the police is how much of their energy and attention is dedicated to shutting down vigils and other ceremonies of remembrance.
Anyway ICE was filmed desecrating Renee Nicole Good’s memorial & doing violence to people who found that distasteful. Might be too soon to say if this falls into some kind of pattern of behavior if you’re the stupidest motherfucker on earth.
