We discovered that peace at any price is no peace at all...that life at any price has no value whatever; that life is nothing without the privileges, the prides, the rights, the joys that make it worth living and also worth giving...

It’s impossible to overstate how much “abolish ice” is the normie position now here in chicago — just countless random moms at toddler soccer on a park district field asking me where I bought my anti-ice t-shirt. average people don’t like our neighborhoods being terrorized.

A friend ran the Chicago marathon today and said he couldn’t count the number of FUCK ICE signs along the way.

Curiously the girder that they hung Mussolini’s body and that of his mistress was in a Milan service station and is now the site of a McDonalds.

In a weird bit of history repeating itself, Mussolini impeachment also started with people in Portland protesting dressed in frog costumes. There's hope!
