part of what got south korea out under the thumb of authoritarian dictatorships and to real elections (1987) and free and fair ones (1992) were large, mass protests and demonstrations.

which is such an anodyne way of describing what happened. it makes it sound bloodless.

it wasn't.
my country elected a fascist 10 years ago and he's now arguably the most unpopular pm we've ever had and we still can't get rid of him because once a fascist gets into power, typically you do not get them out without a whole lot of mass violence. Don't be like us.

Wow. New Economist poll finds only 34% of Americans say ICE's use of force has been justified, vs 51% who say it's been excessive. And they oppose agents wearing masks by 52-35.

Yep, ICE is becoming a pariah agency, and that's gaining deep penetration in the culture:
ICE's military raids and masked kidnappings are resonating deeply/negatively in the cultural spaces we keep hearing Dems need to reach: Manosphere, Joe Rogan, country music, disengaged voters. That's rare and it gives Dems a big opening to engage.

Thoughts on this:

i might give up everything from 2016 on under the hypothesis that the cubs winning the world series that year was a monkey's paw curse and have whatever the other team was win it instead
What’s the craziest thing you’d give up for your team to win a #WorldSeries? 🤔

This is so upsetting
Two Trinidad citizens identified as victims of US airstrike that destroyed a boat off the coast of Venezuela. “According to maritime law, if you see a boat, you are supposed to stop the boat and intercept it, not just blow it up."

There is no going forward with ICE. We do not need to keep ICE. ICE only been around for like 20 years, it's not like a building block or some bullshit

Considering how many horror stories I’ve read about relatives posting real pictures of babies and kids on public social media platforms against the parents’ wishes, I can only fathom how widely accessible AI tools will escalate these violations
it's why i included it in the screenshot
interesting builds on what the guy said, i think
How do you feel about becoming a political lightning rod?

People occasionally just flip [me] off or whatever, but nobody's come up to me and tried to make a statement about anything. Personally, it's kind of dumb. It's just a vehicle. So it's ironic that it would even become a political statement, but nonetheless it is. [Editor’s note: Taylor was arrested and plead guilty to conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding in the January 6 attack on the Capitol. He was later pardoned by President Trump.]

It's worth noting that Trump and Republicans repeatedly criticized the Biden administration for pressuring social media companies into removing content in the past.

Happy to block anyone whose contribution in this moment is to immediately police the language people are using to describe fed invasions of their cities. People are going to be imprecise. They are experiencing immense trauma. If you haven't had a gun pointed at you recently, maybe sit this one out

ONCE UPON A TIME - IN 1941 TO BE EXACT - THERE LIVED IN A GREAT, TALL FOREST - CALLED NEW YORK - EIGHT MEN WHO WERE WRITING AN ENCYCLOPEDIA.

THEY WERE SO WISE THEY KNEW EVERYTHING: THE DEPTH OF THE OCEANS, AND WHAT MAKES A GLOW WORM GLOW, AND WHAT TUNE NERO FIDDLED WHILE ROME WAS BURNING. BUT THERE WAS ONE THING ABOUT WHICH THEY KNEW VERY LITTLE - AS YOU SHALL SEE...

This is Chop. He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by ICE. They showed up at his door "looking for migrants after receiving a tip." The son of the family asked if they could wait before entering the home while he put Chop away in the bathroom, as the dog can be aggressive with strangers.
According to the family, it is at this point that the son went to his pickup truck to retrieve his ID and a Border Patrol agent entered the home, opened the bathroom door, and shot Chop. None of the agents helped the family, who desperately tried to render aid to Chop, as he bled to death on the kitchen floor. Unsurprisingly, the agent who shot their dog then hid from them and refused to give his name. Even more unsurprising, they did not find any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place.
Do not open your door for these fucking losers. Rest easy Chop

I can also confirm that many white people care more about harm to dogs than harm to Black/brown people, so this is not a bad way to draw them in to the evils being done by this regime.

I agree that there’s some real horrific irony in AI conglomerates being permitted to launch the Madness Inducing Porn Spigot while actual, human porn producers are getting harassed off the internet.
It feels like such a slap in the face to sex workers and nsfw artists who are actively being censored by payment processors atm. Of course visa/mc are ok with this because its a rich white guy doing it AND they get access to all that VERY PROFITABLE PII. Disgusting.

I don't know what's worse, the people who forgot about it entirely, or the (nonblack) people who say things with teary eyes like "George Floyd taught me racism was real." like Amadou Diallou, Michael Brown, Sandra Bland, and Trayvon Martin never existed. They faded away into the ash pit of history.
And folks have wild amnesia about it now. More like four minutes 59 seconds.
On this day, in 1973, George Floyd was born.

47 years later, the shocking audacity of his murder would unite Americans of all races, classes, religions, & political beliefs in believing that racism was a bad thing for five minutes.
