Cancel your Spotify subscription.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.

The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

She told them she was on her way to a doctor appt

They broke her window, cut her seatbelt & dragged her away like an animal

She was headed to the Traumatic Brain Injury Center when they grabbed her.

She was denied access to a doctor & tossed in detention

I’m sure they’ll say the children were impeding ICE or something. Also why am I not finding this on any major news sites???
Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.
That is what was relayed

It’s becoming increasingly hard to tell the difference between ICE operating in Minnesota and the FSB operating in Russia. It all makes much more sense when you think about it. Here is the FSB in Russia:

Anyway it would be cool if the left was willing to organize around women’s liberation, because the right is definitely organizing around misogynist contempt.

All we have to do to save Social Security is eliminate (or at least raise) the cap. Then we'll have actual Social Security for seniors.
Social Security is NOT a handout! It is a benefit earned with every paycheck.

Social Security must be protected and expanded– not cut, privatized, or means-tested!

Trump is now acquiring and deploying all the social surveillance tools that the Chinese Communist Party has developed and uses in China. Social media monitoring systems, cellphone location tracking, facial recognition, remote hacking tools—now being turned on Americans by ICE to target protesters.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."

The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"

"Learned what?" she asks

Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

The transformation of ICE into a type of national police force, backed, in some cases, by soldiers from the National Guard, has been covered as immigration story—but these forces are reshaping democracy for all of us.

yeah they’re just grabbing random people at bus stops there is absolutely no attempt to even give the pretense that this is about immigration anymore. it is absolutely just a military occupation
Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.
