ICE must be abolished. It has become a lawless, rogue agency. Federal law enforcement agencies must follow the law, if they're going to have any credibility enforcing it. We are demanding justice for Renee Good and the prosecution of ICE agent Jonathan Ross for her murder.

Stop, please, please stop saying “x is a distraction for y.” No. It’s all just a full frontal assault of evil. None of it is a distraction or meant to be. It’s all the main course.

Again, escalate, don’t escalate, they’re gonna do what they want. They need blue states out of the midterms. They won’t cancel the midterms everywhere, just in blue areas. And you can do nothing, and they’ll find a way to escalate.

So if it’s easy to join ICE, a bunch of us could do the funniest thing

I said in a comment the other day they’re more likely to arrest the widow than the officer. Why? Because that’s how totalitarian conservatives just are.

They’ll end up arresting her wife. Watch.

He’s gonna escalate no matter what. That’s the thing. React. Don’t react. It’s getting escalated unilaterally. If this is the plan, it’s what he’s gonna aim for no matter what, even if fabricated.

Stefan Zweig escaped to Brazil, but in 1942 still committed suicide out of a belief that cosmopolitanism was dead. Of course, 3 years later and - despite a Cold War - Europe would enjoy 8 decades of relative peace and stability, with the growth of the EU less than a century later.

They’re not going to try and cancel the entire midterms. Just the midterms in certain districts and states.

This is why it’s pointless to engage in civil discourse or action toward these people. They don’t want to abide by the social contract, so using it on then is pointless.

Fuck ICE. They deserve what’s coming to them.

If the government won’t handle the violence of ICE, then we the people need to.

“I’m a Catholic who denies the intercession of saints…and the creeds.” You’re not a catholic. You’re an apostate.

Didn’t we see this after Russia invaded Ukraine? So now we can’t speak out against the war?

Something that doesn’t get talked about enough - the fucked up nature of the white vote. We always talk about black turnout, Hispanic turnout, female turnout, etc. But the unspoken narrative is they’re having to MITIGATE the white vote.

anything other than full-throated condemnation means you're persona non grata btw there could not be a brighter red line than this

The US deserves sanctions, to say the least. What we've done is illegal and sets a terrible precedent.

$600 leather boots in NYC are hardly luxury or out of the norm. The Post is reaching new depths.

The idea of needing more “living space” sure does sound familiar

If Ukraine attacked Putin’s residence the only regret they should have is they missed.

By definition, that’s slavery.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: mutual aid = “private charities” but for the left. If you want to help people, push for robust government aid programs as that’s proven to work. That is, after all, the ultimate form of “mutual aid.”

These are crocodile tears. They know exactly what they could have done to avoid this

Administration troll bot found. Look at his wall - he’s a bot for the Trump admin.

lmao

It also makes no sense for most Americans. 3/4 of my heritage got here before the Revolutionary War. 1/4 got here in the 1910s due to a Russian pogrom. Am I a "heritage American?" It's weird to me, because I view immigrants as being as American as me. Where you're born doesn't dictate who you are.

In the United States, mommy and daddy shouldn't matter. You're a grown ass man, what have YOU done? The idea that being born somewhere grants special privilege is the dumbest thing in the world. It's a sign of someone who doesn't have much else to go on.

Okay, so Pluribus is brilliant television.

My hot take is people talk this way because we stopped beating people’s asses when they talked this way. Physical violence is actually good sometimes.

Well, that's two tech interview rounds out of the way. If they like me then I get the joy of a third round (not a tech, just a team fit). If not, then at least I made it this far. First time in years I got this far in the process, so there's that at least.

First live coding interview in two years and it got pushed back. But the reviewer said based on my first round and my skills (my builds), he’ll see about shortening the next one or skipping it. Turns out knowing theory pays off. Vibe coding doesn’t.

The anti-Muslim bigotry in the US makes literally no sense. White boys have killed as many people in mass shootings as Muslims killed in 9/11. How come we don't talk about white boy ideology? There's over a billion Muslims in the world, you're going to get some variety.

I speed. I have a lead foot. I 100% support this initiative. And by “speed” is 5-10 over, but still it’s over. I’m all for limiting my ability to abuse a car.

Got my second round interview scheduled for Monday. Might be finally heading back into web dev full time. Just gotta pass the code review.

Man can’t even do A pull up and he’s talking about health?

This looks like a wax museum piece.

If you don’t feel shame as an American, then you’re not really a human.

If SCOTUS overturns birthright citizenship, then SCOTUS is illegitimate and their rulings don’t matter. They should be ignored.

The Supreme Court cannot “uphold the longstanding principle” or “strike down birthright citizenship.” The Supreme Court can follow the plain text of the constitution or declare itself in rebellion to the constitution. These are the only two options wrt birthright citizenship and the 14th Amendment.

Always a good sign when an interviewer says he’s impressed with your answers and immediately moves you onto the second round. First tech interview in over a year and I crushed it. Two more rounds to go.

In the off chance anyone I'm connected to on here is into custom keyboards...I'm selling one of my latest mods on eBay. Should have some wireless boards on the way in a few weeks. This one is wired, but has an ASMR sound and is good to go out of the box. ebay.us/m/EukSTd

I wrote about the dirty, demeaning, absolutely booming business of turning something like a shitty bigoted college essay into a shitty public career as a bigot, and also estimated how old Marine Todd would be today. defector.com/the-conserva...

Good god

Fascism is nothing more than people's excuse to be an asshole. That's the appeal of MAGA and Trump. If someone, at this point, still supports him, it's because they want to be an asshole to people they don't like without any consequences. They're just not a good human being.

Yeah, everyone knows Muhammad Sanchez is coming over here for a drug-infused Al Qeda attack.

The argument is defeated by one question: When has this happened in US history? If migrants recreate the conditions of their homeland, then the US should have collapsed multiple times throughout its history. And yet, after each wave of immigration and assimilation, we got stronger.

We’re gonna get the worst of 2008 coupled with the worst of 2020-2021, plus some extra goodies.
