I am so tired of having 18th century monarchists in charge of the government, this shit is so exhausting.

Like, I’m sorry, but this is LITERALLY a description of “professional law enforcement,” as it stands today in the United States.
What we are seeing with ICE *is* fundamentally how american police have functioned, just stripped of the context where we have grown used to the violence and targets.

I realize that I’m being that girl, but the critiques directed at ICE here - that it will attract white nationalists who wish to do violence, that it will attempt to use its violence to take political power and choose its own leaders - are indistinguishable from defund’s critiques of police.

It's weird thinking about all the history classes where we were sold ideas about decency, inclusiveness, democracy etc. Even if they were aspirational simplifications of nuanced history, I can't believe how many people were like, 'No. The Nazis were cool, slavery is good, ethnic cleansing is good.'

If he didn't want to be called a murderer, perhaps he shouldn't have done a murder.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."
