They don’t fear violence; they fetishize it. What they fear is happiness, because happy people don’t need saviors or strongmen.

Just a note of thanks to the cutest, friendliest Magnolia Warbler I've ever met. It entertained me for days in Central Park's Wildflower Meadow! 💕💕💕 #Warblers #CentralPark #birding

A bottle of water can be $1
at the market,
S3 at a restaurant, $4 at the movies and $6 in an airport. It's the same exact water. The only thing that changed it's value, was the place. So, the next time you feel like you have no value, maybe you're in the wrong place.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Two dozen masked ICE Federal Secret Police, who are kitted out like they are going to war, kidnap a local and brutalize the community.

Toward the end of the video, they throw a gas cannister that almost hits a baby. 😟
