This is an important point.

Empathy—in and of itself—is anti-fascist.

The arts—and the project of higher education as a whole—teach empathy, enabling you to put yourself in other people’s shoes.

So to a fascist, they must be destroyed.
The war on empathy and the war on the arts are part of the same project.

The banality of evil is shocking. An ex-Big Lots warehouse for cheap consumer junk is bought by ICE to ship as many as 7,500 handcuffed human beings, as the Trump regime builds a U.S. gulag archipelago

NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.

ICE has used Mobile Fortify to identify immigrants and citizens alike over 100,000 times, by one estimate. It wasn't built to work like that—and only got approved after DHS abandoned its own privacy r...

Again, it’s worth thinking through how this would work, if only for the comedic value. You need to assume that it’s possible to get people on the voter rolls even if they are not eligible to vote. If this were possible, why not just invent a fictitious person?
Trump’s claims about non-citizen voting are bullshit.

They are simply a pretext to undermine public confidence in the legitimacy of election outcomes, unless they align with Trump’s personal, self-serving desires.

His claims are also provably false, w/ hard data. 👇

Just spitballing here, but maybe in the land of the free we shouldn't have a pedophilic ruling elite class, police who kidnap people off the street, and concentration camps?

"The third woman said federal agents at her hotel are subsisting on microwavable bowls of Campbell’s chicken noodle soup, because it’s become so difficult for them to find restaurants willing to serve them.”
I visited hotels all over Minneapolis, went into back rooms & talked to the staff.

They're afraid.

One told me she resents how her undocumented coworkers spend their days cleaning the rooms of agents who are “hunting down their family members.”

Yesterday at the Portland ICE protest, Portland cops were literally *right there* when ICE started teargassing the crowd, which included children and the elderly.

Most cops stood around silently while people begged they do something. A lieutenant who was actually responding said "that's too bad"
Any Seattle cop who refuses to defend the people of Seattle against violent federal shock troops should be fired immediately. Full stop.

Start with Mike Solan, the head of the rogue police union.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

What if I told you that the possibility of peaceful resolution of fascist Republicans ceased being a possibility after January 6, 2021?

Violence will be applied or inflicted by or on you, no matter what you do.

There is no future where this madness goes away. Stop pretending like that’s a choice.
