To recognize what's happening, that birthright citizenship of ALL kinds is under threat, is TOO disturbing.
Such an embrace of reality would require a response, and people are still swimming in denial

birthright citizenship is absolute, there is no arguement, this is a farce, everyone knows it and keeps playing along. i dont know why tho
BREAKING: Supreme Court agrees to hear Trump v. Barbara, a case teeing up the constitutionality of his order rescinding birthright citizenship. Oral argument is likely in March or April with a decision in June.

the reason there are trillions spent to lie to americans all day er'day is that when americans have good info, they make the right decision almost every time. its only when decisions are based in lies that we go so wrong. theres no other side spend trillions on truth, no Project 2025, but for good
Two independent studies found that AI chatbots were better at persuading voters than political ads. The most persuasive bots also lied the most. This is something that humans working in psyops have known for decades. AI is psyops at scale. www.technologyreview.com/2025/12/04/1...

in the civilized world the tax authority sends you a bill, you can then amend it with deductions not known by the authority or you accept it or you dispute it outright. in scotland where they do this, less than 1% of ppl have to dispute the bill and talk to their irs
Thanks to the IRS MATH Act, the IRS must now explain mistakes in plain English, show any adjustments, and put your 60-day appeal deadline front and center. It will be a major upgrade from previously confusing notices.

Fascism does not care if you are a US citizen.
It is a growth industry after all, and some private prison/contractor must make their ⅛ of a cent.
Capitalism demands, encourages, and rewards ruthlessness, no matter the circumstance, no matter who wields it.

this is what the decades of Stop & Frisk looked like in our communities, being fucked with and being let go, whats the big deal we were told
Agents in Key Largo, Florida ripped this woman wearing medical scrubs out of her car as she screamed she is a US citizen. Agents cuffed her and put her in one of their cars.
She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:
