This image is a meme using characters from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine to express a strong opinion on labor strikes within the video game industry. The first character asks if game developers should strike. The second character responds that all exploited workers should strike. The first asks if this is true even if it disrupts the industry. The second emphasizes that it should happen especially if it causes disruption.

I'll repost this occasionally so we can keep the list going. In addition to Ober and Strider we've got Simeon Woods Richardson (Twins) and Will Klein (Dodgers) who have shown opposition in some form to federal occupation. I know Kiké Hernández had spoken out when LA was invaded, so let's add him.

Keeping a running list of baseball players who are speaking out (via social media or comments to reporters) against the ICE occupation of Minneapolis or related topics. So far we've got Bailey Ober (Twins pitcher) and Spencer Strider (Braves pitcher). Any others?

The Pohlad family, who own the Minnesota Twins, got asked at FanFest yesterday about what are doing to stop ICE violence in their community. After a wishy-washy 🤷 response, the fan suggested they call Trump because he listens to other billionaires. Worth watching!: www.reddit.com/r/minnesotat...

A meme of Chidi and Eleanor from the Good Place. Chidi, a Black man wearing a blue collared shirt and glasses, looks concerned, and tells Eleanor, a blonde woman wearing a pink shirt, with her back to the viewer, "well that's called fedposting and it's generally frowned upon"

And he didn’t. He tried to help a woman who’d just been assaulted. There was nothing rash, stupid, or radical about what he did. He showed kindness. And they killed him for it.

I wasn't sure what to expect from a group of Democratic state AGs, but I definitely was not expecting a long monologue about Ruby Ridge and the Boston Massacre www.theverge.com/policy/86588...
Just before the town hall, a reporter asked Ellison about the difficulty states faced in prosecuting federal agents like the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. “The idea that they’re absolutely immune is a misstatement of the law, and it is a dangerous misstatement of the law, because I don’t want any ICE agent or Border Patrol agent or any agent to think that they can just kill people and then that’s it,” Ellison told the group of reporters. Then he asked rhetorically: “What about Ruby Ridge? You ever heard of that one?” Years after an FBI sniper shot Vicki Weaver at Ruby Ridge, the state of Idaho prosecuted the federal agent. The federal government went to bat for the agent, claiming that he was immune under the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. The Ninth Circuit ruled that Idaho was allowed to prosecute the sniper — similarly, Minnesota is also entitled to investigate and potentially prosecute the officer who shot Renee Good. But a different example loomed larger in Ellison’s mind: the Boston Massacre of 1770, where British soldiers shot into a crowd, ultimately killing five people. “It’s not exactly analogous, but we are talking about local authorities in Boston, prosecuting imperial agents of the colonial power, the central government, in England. And they were prosecuted. Two of them were convicted. John Adams actually represented a few of the imperial officers.” The Boston Massacre, said Ellison, was obviously “in the mind of the framers of the Constitution” at the time the document was written. “They were thinking about this event, and they would have never conceded the state’s authority to prosecute a federal officer,” said Ellison, going on to add, “The states of the United States pre-date the United States. It is federal courts that are limited. Not state courts. State courts have plenary power.” He finished with a dramatic flourish: “It’s true that the feds are denying us access to the investigative file. It’s also true that there’s no statute of limitations on murder.”

we lost David Lynch a year ago today (and in the time since, I've seen "fix your hearts or die" on more protest signs than ever before). what I wrote at the time:

After the failure of negotiations in Damascus, a general mobilization has begun in Rojava. Youth from northern Kurdistan appear To have crossed the border to join the defence. it feels like 2014 again, complete with horrific executions of SDF prisoners.

ICE got plenty of money when Chuck Schumer folded and now they're saying fuck you. What a shock. If anyone continues to fund the government at the end of the month they are Republican.
