Do not fall for this pseudo-woke bullshit.

i think the thing to really understand here is that ICE is political police. there's a vestigial element that is ancestrally related to something called "immigration enforcement" (which is also bogus) but ICE is political police for policing political enemies

i’m somewhere btwn “well that’s not surprising” & “this is just horrifying & am confused why some of these revelations aren’t a bigger deal in mainstream media & everyday society” about the epstein file dumps & also can't imagine what it’s like being a survivor & having your unredacted name included

My foolproof way of determining if crypto is doing well or not is always to check the major cryptocurrency subreddits and if more than 50% of them have the suicide hotline number pinned on their front-page then I know that crypto is doing really really really well

i dont really have the words to articulate it right now but i think a major element to... everything right now that no one wants to broach is that men are largely uninterested in a world without base misogyny and have a dimmer view of other men on that front than most feminists

Explaining a website to an American:

If they said 3,000 agents were leaving MN today, I would not fully rejoice. Because those 3,000 would be headed elsewhere. I don’t want them kidnapping ANYONE. I don’t want them breaking up ANY families. I don’t want those 700 headed off to destroy other families! Abolish ICE is the floor.

Idk maybe it's creepy as shit for the US military to be partnering with the children's wilderness & community skills club maybe Scouts should keep keeping "God and country" out of the core values for their fun club for kids

the sensible people of this country want to get rid of ICE and Democratic politicians do not want to get rid of ICE we don’t have to do this goofy dance like it’s mysterious it’s a simple truth move past anyone who refuses to acknowledge

The struggle we will face this year is that ice can be defended against through hyper local decentralized organization but the political crisis wont be resolved at the neighborhood level

these conditions range from illegal to unconstitutional to human rights violations. the behavior we're seeing from DHS is atrocious. the behavior taking place behind closed doors will require tribunals

Yesterday we kicked off NYC’s Free Tax Prep season. That means filing your taxes at zero cost, keeping every dollar of your refund, and not getting ripped off by for-profit companies.    Nearly half of all New Yorkers qualify. Get help—virtually or in person—at nyc.gov/TaxPrep

It's really fucking confusing that "conspiracy" has come to mean both "conspiracy" and "conspiracy theory"

If you look at an act of light vandalism and say "oh it's okay to film this because these people are definitely feds," I don't know what to tell you except that you have spent way too much time listening to some very confused people. And also, you are a danger to movement.

Minimizing the window where I read about how our world is a joke and we're at the mercy of megalomaniacal evil perverts. Logging on to the work zoom. "Heyyyy I'm good! How are you?"

this is rape culture too, we’ve had so much handwringing on here about how this is losing normal people, about how this one man can never be turned away no matter what he’s doing bc he just wants to help, but very little acknowledging that anyone else can have boundaries

There's a standard rhetorical trope these days that ascribes enormous capability to the wealthy, presuming they're brilliant. This is a myth made by wealthy to flatter themselves. Don't buy it. Remember Glass Onion. Some people just get lucky, and wealth is morally and intellectually corrosive.

Fuck yeah unleash the groundhogs.

Groundhog Day is here, and once again, I’m caught completely unprepared for the grand festivities.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT I have decided to start a feud with Punxsutawney Phil. This phony prognosticator craven squirrel-faced rodent may have crawled back into his hole to be forgotten for another year, but I have not forgotten and I will not forgive

I would say this findings shows women are more AI literate than men, because the majority of non-magical beings have no innate ability to "judge truthfulness"

'measles outbreak at the child prison' seems entirely avoidable, it's really the kind of thing that only happens if you do several unthinkably evil things on purpose all at once

in retrospect in the wake of the epstein files being released, no wonder ‘me too’ was met with such anger and ultimately those in power it meant to target never face many consequences

Mobile Suit Breakdown discussing the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway wasn't the crossover I expected

i could personally do without the “we’re flipping everything blue” cope because the way this will actually play out in the long run is a more conservative democratic party

HEARTBREAKING: The Transphobic Pedophile Said Something Very Funny

there were multiple different countdown clocks until the Olsen twins turned 18 reddit had its infamous 'jailbait' community online until late 2011 all of this shit was just out in the open, it was awful

some good news buried among the horrible behavior listed: “The third woman said federal agents at her hotel are subsisting on microwavable bowls of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup, because it’s become so difficult for them to find restaurants willing to serve them.”

Kapitalizm pozwala jednostkom gromadzić niewyobrażalne bogactwo, za pomocą którego dokonują niewyobrażalnych okrucieństw.

2008: Epstein is convicted of procuring a minor for prostitution 2018: Despite that conviction, [files indicate] he was invited by Rowling’s team - along with a guest of his choosing - to the Broadway opening of Harry Potter and the private after-party Protecting women and children, is it?

It's depressing that rich leering creeps could say "trans women have women's bodies" in their horrifying emails to one another a few years ago but well meaning libs who've been hit in the head with "gender can be changed but not sex" for a decade can't anymore

getting killed by the secret police is actually a kitchen table issue because if you get murdered in the street you can’t drink coffee anymore

I know evil is a loaded term but I can't really think of any other way to describe people who think it's reasonable to create a simulacra of a dead person to sell things to their loved ones. And The Atlantic is treating it as ~maybe~ unacceptable.

Who puts mustard on a burger?

how the fuck is this real

Instead of giving the people a correct idea of the constitution you, the democrats, treat the constitution in your writings as something in the nature of salmon mayonnaise.

DHS doesn’t even bother trying to lie well. The man whose skull was shattered told the hospital he’d been struck by ICE officers, an ICE officer told hospital staff the guy “got his sh*t rocked,” then when it became clear how badly he was injured, they claimed he deliberately ran into a wall.

six-ish hours later and it's still sinking in that the below is true and it's also true that gamergate was the single most significant political movement of the 21st century so far and that the two are probably more intimately connected than we'll ever rly know

When someone without opsec argues against opsec, they're not necessarily doing it in bad faith. Their lives and livelihoods are completely different than these nurses and teachers who don't do what's right for the attention but rather at great risk to their financial stability.

An entire political movement founded on uncovering hidden messages in documents to discover the powerful secret pedophiles and meanwhile the powerful pedophiles out here sending gmails saying "Hi fellow pedophile when are we meeting to do pedophilia again"

There's no one-weird-trick to building socialism. We can't shortcut around the task of merging the socialist movement with the labor movement by instead relying on the left wing of the petite bourgeoisie.

You could imagine similar situations in which members of the media coordinated in solidarity around Lemon to direct sustained negative attention to Trump over this story. Instead the political press spent the earlier part of the week making up a fake story ("new tone") to help Trump.

Never mind jobs you had, tell me five classes you took at university Chinese Performance Literature Forms of Japanese Theater Phonetics Syntax Semantics

I bet Stancil is full of shit about "security" and actually got kicked out for going apeshit in the chats like he does everywhere else

thats a wrap on video games as a hobby folks, we need to use the entire world’s supply of RAM and processors for the email summary and plagiarism machine

He attempted his heist armed only with his Minnesota DL, same random paperwork about suing the federal government, a bbq fork, and a pizza cutter. I’m not even kidding.

Striking numbers which demonstrate, in spades, how tiny is the popular support for the culture of hate that Britain's institutions seem determined to impose on a kind and accepting majority. (Expect the BBC to ignore it or qualify it to oblivion.)
