Just come on, make the argument you want but be honest about it. I think most people aren’t capable of being honest with themselves and so being dishonesty to every argument. Look in the mirror.

Yiiiiiiiiikes 😬

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning. A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

Well Sweden’s done it now. It’s not Trump’s fault, being denied his big boy Obama prize just made him a fascist, of course

Historians argue that Trump indicting his enemies one-by-one rather than having them murdered in a single night proves he’s not a fascist.

Kristi Noem should never have been confirmed after this. It ended up being a perfect representation of what she would do.

I hope the normies understand who precisely is in the White House doing their antifa mutual assgrab event today - the lowest of the low grifters. Nothing but grievance harvesting scum. Nothing but the lowest form of moneymaking bootlickers for everyone’s favorite POTUS

Attorney General Bondi recently threatened to put me in jail. Now, the President has threatened to put the Illinois governor and Chicago mayor in jail. This is about as authoritarian as it gets.

#OtD 8 Oct 1967 Yamazaki Hiroaki was killed by police, and around 600 people injured in Japan during an anti-Vietnam war demonstration near Haneda airport stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/1085...

This thread started with a quote of the president threatening to arrest him and ends with...this, and I think thats part of the problem here. We are way past whatever this means, and if people like Pritzker dont see that, even for self preservation, then...idk.

🥴 I understand why people *want* the police to intervene--normies are like, 'I thought cops are supposed to arrest people doing crimes, ICE is right there doing crimes, go do your thing' but police organizations take nearly every opportunity to be like, 'oh you misunderstood what our thing is'

hey - if this guy on the left comes up to you with his streaming setup to interview you on why you are there at the ICE protest, just wave him away and don't give your name.

There seem to be several large holes in my emotional armor. I trust I am not alone.

Portland 🖤

Joe Biden said without Israel, Jewish people wouldn't be safe. Israeli officials just dragged an American Jewish man to his knees, made him take a photo op with the Israeli flag, and yelled in his face and called him a terrorist

A violent MAGA extremist broke a journalists leg at ICE. He just got out of surgery. I do not get why the media ignores all the extreme violence on us. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMkgg33c/

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

Funds for guns but nothing for starving kids. Fuck all leaders!!! apnews.com/article/isra...

What a fucking surprise, ICE lies again. America needs to do something before they kill again

Contact our Civil Rights Project Director, Juan Chavez, if you were assaulted by federal agents outside of the ICE Building in Portland this weekend.

No one is coming to stop this guy, no one is going to stick up for us and these dem and lib folks are soft, and weak and are basically useless in times of crisis with fascists. You might as well pretend they don’t exist. We need to rely on ourselves.

The same way ppl in power hold us regular folks hostage, we too can also hold them hostage. Nothing moves if no one works. Ppl have to know the truth and the truth of that is there will be the state forcing them back to work with violent confrontation. But if you don’t make a stand nothing changes.

This is why ACAB

How has SCOTUS not weighed in on this malarkey? And before you say it, yes I expect them to be MAGA toadies, I’m just surprised it hasn’t gotten to them yet.

Am I the only one who finds it jarring when people who otherwise show a healthy, rational skepticism of official police narratives race to agree with the police so as to not sound like conspiracy theorists? It’s like the only time to utterly agree with the police is to avoid being called a crank.

Another Black man was found hanging in the woods and they’re calling it a suicide. At this point, we’re all gonna have to post that we’re mentally sound and would NEVER hang ourselves from trees. His name is JAYVON GIVAN.

Oh, wild. It's always the ones you most suspect.

Copaganda is real, and Americans lap it up. Why? That shit has always missed me. Where’s the ROI, financial conservatives? Beyond the bullies attracted to the profession and the evil they enact and the immunity they’re given, who thinks this is a wise use of resources? Wtaf

All of these cops could call in sick to make a point. But they don't.

Goddamn

Children are being zip tied and dragged from their homes. Children are being zip tied and dragged from their homes. This cannot be allowed to continue. No one should be treated this way, but allowing it to happen to children must be the final straw. Keep resisting Chicago, we're with you.

isp are back at broadview. this is not the protection of free speech

This is a solid fucking point: where are the no kings people? Where are the 50501 people?

Massive escalation at the ICE facility. Federal agents made multiple arrests (at least 4), threw out gas, and shot tons of pepper balls. Heard one of the people arrested screaming minutes later. Not possible to get a visual.

Notice that he doesn't mention the unprovoked ICE attack on protesters at Broadview—who were already complying with the commands of police—probably bc his state cops assisted in that violent attack. He prob thought he could prevent the troop deployment by helping ICE police protesters. Didn't work.

I am dead serious. Every time I have opened bluesky since 10pm last night I have seen protestors faces plastered on my page. I know the frog is delightful, but please black out the faces of the people around the frog

ICE reportedly opened fire on rapid responders on the southwest side this afternoon. There are *very few* details on this available at this time. Treat all rumors with caution until verified. This Sun-Times article cites a DHS statement that should be treated, as always, with extreme skepticism:

And in true gop fashion, they'll blame everyone and everything else- Immigrants Blacks Feminism Gays Transsessss Before doing an ounce of self reflection Stop the learned helplessness already and just write the goddamn email. Make up the bedtime story Be worth the flesh you're printed on.

And much more generally, the people who came here first and still keep this place hopping are people who by definition have a lower tolerance for mod bullshit than most. So that might be an important thing to keep in mind when considering alienating that specific subset of your user base.

Not subtle choices 👀

America has not hit rock bottom yet. I sincerely hope it’s not too much longer. This is grotesque

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

Oh hello @govpritzker.illinois.gov is this how you stand with us against Trump?? All you did is reinforce his tyranny.

"Medical professionals are also raising questions about whether families of the dead have any idea that their loved ones might be used to train soldiers. USC says it operates the programs in accordance with regulations."

“Pestering” and “harassing” are not really the same thing
