rightwingers see people caring about others in their community and instead of finding that inspiring they think it’s some sort of grand conspiracy because they don’t understand what it means to care for others you don’t personally know

We still don't know the names of the ICE agents who killed Gonzàlez behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September.

They were unmasked in this BWC footage from Franklin Park police.

If you have any information at all about these men—please text us on Signal at unraveled.66

Facts. The playbook is older than all of us.

"Black people don't ACTUALLY want to be treated as equals, they're just Soviet-trained commie agitators" used to be the line.

"Carpetbagger" and "scalawag" remained vocabulary words taught in US history because the Dunning School's Lost Cause ideology was able to demonize for over a century the notion that Reconstructionists were an externally imposed element, rather than new and old locals conspiring together.
Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.”

Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.

Breathless reports on Twitter from Project Veritas & fellow creeps of infiltrating ICE watch signals. I thought, Oh, no, they found a couple of jackasses & are going to blow them up. But no, the "conspiracy" is that many people volunteer, take turns on shifts, and train at nonviolence.

if you read enough history you understand that the very best people, following their instincts, tend to make themselves targets in times like these.
New: Alex Pretti, the man killed by the Trump-Vance mob of agents was an outdoorsmen, a mountain biker, an ICU nurse who "would go out of his way to help," say Veterans Affairs colleagues.

Cheerful. Funny. Gentle.

And still, per sources, Trump officials are urging staff to call him a "terrorist."

Zeteo spoke with two doctors who worked with Alex Pretti, a nurse who is the latest victim of Trump’s violent invasion of Minnesota.

The first Minnesota murder, they refused to let a medical professional help the woman they shot. The second Minnesota murder, they simply shot the medical professional.

And he didn’t. He tried to help a woman who’d just been assaulted. There was nothing rash, stupid, or radical about what he did. He showed kindness. And they killed him for it.

The way the American government just lies to its citizens is insane. You could be at home sleeping and 5 masked thugs break into your bedroom and kill you in your sleep, and high ranking officials will go on TV and declare you're a terrorist and they acted in self defense

Whether it's the gang of psychopathic knife wielding Jimmies in Bone Temple, or the shaved-bald orphan from the new Game of Thrones, modern TV is making a lot of assumptions about how easy it is to keep knives razor-sharp under heavy use.

as a 3rd amendment absolutist i don't believe it is legal to quarter soldiers anywhere. including barracks. the entire armed forces should be sleeping rough in the woods or skid row at all times.

Videos of agents breaking car windows aside:

For the most part, the 5th and 4th are holding. Most of the time when confronted ICE melts away. They don’t have the resources to tie up agents for hours engaged in a conflict or waiting for a target to leave the home.
For everyone saying this doesn't matter because ICE doesn't follow the law:

1. They want you to think knowing your rights makes no difference when we know for a fact it does. How do we know that? Because Homan himself said people knowing their rights cost then hundreds of arrests in Chicago.
If you are stopped by Trump's ICE goons, or any other kind of cops:

I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT.

Memorize it.

And don't let ICE in without a JUDICIAL warrant. No, administrative warrants don't count.

i really really hate how many people on the left are responding to good advice on dealing with ICE with "so they don't abide by the law anyway"

ignore people who tell you not to take basic safety precautions like knowing your rights.

those people aren't your friends

I'm sure there will be many other justifications offered, in rapid succession. But it's wild to be heading into a self-induced recession behind more or less this reasoning.
