I have yet to see any evidence that there is a market for AI-generated books outside of people being tricked into thinking they are not AI-generated books. AKA, it is a project of scamming and deceiving people, and really should be treated as fraud

An amazing MN Librarian assembled us a reading list to add to the website so people can do more than donate, they can learn to organize in their communities.

The bulk of the national discourse is focused on preventing white people from getting caught in the crosshairs of ICE’s violence.

And the reason that feels so crazymaking in Minnesota is because we were organizing before Renee Good’s murder to protect people of color targeted by ICE.

On the contrary. Spitting at ICE agents is what an angel would do.
You will be shocked to learn the NYT has unearthed evidence indicating that this nurse who worked at the VA and got summarily murdered in the street by agents of the state Was No Angel.
More than a week before federal agents killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, different agents pushed him to the ground after he spit at them and broke a taillight on their SUV, according to newly unearthed videos. Watch here.

Folks sometimes forget that people resisting fascism do sometimes break laws, and that we shouldn't want them locked up for it. If someone on our side films an incident where someone breaks a law for the greater good, law enforcement doesn't necessarily get the unedited footage.

Also, the primary purpose of law enforcement body cams, functionally speaking, will always be the surveillance and criminalization of members of the public, not law enforcement themselves. Extraordinary exceptions confuse people about this.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

I'm sorry for the person who was beat to death and killed. My sincere condolences to their loved ones. ICE is going to continue to kill people because the purpose of a system is what it does. It is not what it says it does or what you hope it does. Maybe USians will finally confront this truth.

Just saw footage of federal agents, either ICE or border patrol, shooting someone point blank in Minneapolis. Again. Seven of them had the man pinned down, they were beating him, then one murders him. They’re giving us no choice but to fight back like our lives depend on it.

more and more i am realizing how valuable it is to be sad.

watch a clip from a tv show about dying, cry.
listen to lizzy mcalpine, ache.
watch videos from minnesota, cry.
hear a principal talk about families self-deporting, take long, deep breaths.

my friend jackson makes a lot of really great videos, but this one really hit me at the perfect time. how can we carry all this sadness? how can we allow ourselves to feel all this pain and still show up for ourselves? for each other?

We are told that police need to be allowed to kill when they get scared but that everyone else must comport themselves perfectly or else they deserve to get whacked.

Reporter: A mother of 3, a partner, a poet. 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. She was shot and killed near the site of an ICE operation after dropping off her 6-year-old son at school. She was a devoted Christian. Her former neighbor says she wasn't a terrorist nor an extremist as she's been described.

This is probably going to demand a depressing amount of repetition, but here goes.

If Renee Nicole Good was a childless foreign national, its still wasn't OK for a federal employee to straight up execute her. Begging everyone to not concede one inch of ground to this toxic framing.
The victim has been identified as 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, a US citizen and the mother of a small child.

there is no reason for ICE to exist. immigrants aren’t doing anything wrong by trying to live and work and provide for their loved ones. I don’t care how people got here. if they want to be here that’s good. leave them alone.

Abolishing ICE is the bare minimum.

We need to dismantle DHS. We need restitution. And we need trials.

Two queer women with a 6 year old in school today stopped to film ICE and for their bravery ICE agents murdered one before the other’s eyes. The grief in the survivor’s voice is a knife to the gut. Destroying people and their bonds is what ICE has always done.
NEWS: In a heartbreaking video, after ICE shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, a woman who was in the same SUV cries out: “They killed my wife. I don’t know what to do."

“We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head,” the distraught woman sobs.

Fuck all of you saying "this is inevitable" or "it's here deal with it" or even "it's fine"/"it's not a big deal". Be antihuman on your own time. This is a moveable needle. It's ruining lives (mine included already), ruining the environment, ruining art and creativity, isn't needed and isn't wanted.

Some people took down entire websites, changed mission statements and mandates or dropped entire projects at the start of this year

But kept the job
Kept the title

But couldn’t even hold the line themselves.
