Yeah I don't know how to fully express that I feel like my soul is basically damaged by the way I feel about the regime & its agents at this point.
I don't know that I've ever really felt this level of visceral moral CONTEMPT for other humans. It veers into cold hate at times in ways I worry about.

y'know, i never hated a person until i was in my late 40's. ask anyone who knows me, i'm a squish. it still doesn't come naturally to me, but holy hell i *hate* every single person involved in making this DHS/ICE reign of terror possible.
It's a campaign of terror.
Her terror (and the terror of entire communities, forced into hiding) is not incidental.
It is a product they are manufacturing, a key part of the spectacle for their intended audience.
Which is the terrorized, but also the terror consumers.

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.
They’ve had their necks kneeled on.
They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.
At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

ALL for-profit prison and institution companies are committing crimes against humanity.
Listen to prisoners and their families about this. We may be a long way from solving inequities and injustices that make institutions necessary, but anyone charging caged people for flatware visits The Hague.

Reminder that the federal government was once the largest employer of Black women in the country.
DOGE fired so many Black women that it massively spiked their unemployment rate.
The government shutdown was already here, just not equally distributed.
