It doesn't matter if they are ever coming for you.

It was always ever already too much that they were coming for anyone.

The Ku Klux Klan Acts (passed in 1870 & 1871 to protect 14th amend rights) were a response to masked violent men who terrorized Black communities, violating their civil rights.The deployment of violent masked ICE ofcrs are tapping into this unique form of terror.

One of the compounding tragedies of Gaza is that having broadcast the torture of the Palestinian concentration camp in realtime without consequence, the United States is emboldened to torture more people knowing it will face no consequences
NEW: Immigrants complain of inhumane conditions at ICE holding cells in NYC.

No showers or changing clothes. Sometimes only one meal per day. Over 100 people in small rooms. Sleeping on benches, the floor, or sitting up, due to lack of space.

We now have a concentration camp in Florida.

Stop pretending any of this is normal.

If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person.

Be human.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hanadi. Hanadi is the mother of three little girls, unfortunately her youngest daughter Aya was killed in an air strike in December, the same air strike also caused her oldest daughter Jourie’s foot to be amputated and she needs a prosthetic.

Article 51 of the UN Charter states, a country has the inherent right to self-defence if an armed attack occurs against it.

Iran now has the right under international law, to destroy every one of these bases and sink American ships, which are legitimate military targets.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

I spoke with several leading archaeologists to better understand the impact recent federal funding cuts will have on archaeology in the US. The future doesn’t look good.

No one was killed. They were all #murdered and the #West is complicit in all these deaths. A simple equation has emerged :

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Mr. Antiwar President has us inches away from a Civil War at home and a nuclear war abroad in defense of an ally that is starting random hot regional wars to detract from its ongoing genocide. I’m sure all of this will just naturally cool off.

I feel like every year of my life there's been a report about some right-winger murdering people for holding different opinions. And, every year of my life, I've heard warnings about left-wingers potentially returning to the political violence they did before I was born.
