I feel like a huge chunk of the opposition are too scared of their own shadow, and another chunk is too scared of looking like they earnestly believe in something. IDGAF what you think is cringe, or that you are too cool to believe anything will work. I'm too fucking angry to care.
A movement that teaches empathy is a sin is, definitionally, evil.

"...while she was holding the agent's head in her hands and keeping his airway open.
'I was hit so hard with the fact that this man would not do this for me.'"
They were eventually allowed one phone call as a thanks for saving the agent’s life.

They used it to call their lawyer, who called their state representative, who ultimately got them released on the condition they tell people they were “treated kindly.”

We have citizen patrols checking empty cars like this for children and animals that were left behind in the negative temps because that’s where we are at as a society.

there are so many gutting stories, but this one is hitting me extra hard. just imagining wael tarabishi slowly dying without his dad there to care for him because he was jailed by ICE makes me…i don’t have words. this country is disgusting.
Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization
It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

Every single one of these fuckers needs to be held accountable.
This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

You can’t pass legislation in a dictatorship Elliott. Schumer is writing bills into the ether while the admin is writing him off as a non concern. There won’t be an election to win or lose. Centrists are stepping over bodies as they run to push through $10B in additional funding for the US Gestapo.

seeing corporate outlets repeatedly refer to ICE beating the shit out of protesters as “clashes” may be the thing that sends me over the edge

This is very disappointing, though not surprising.

I get it- I am not expecting the most political agility from Schumer- but can they really not tell the difference between a policy focus and a GODDAMN EMERGENCY HAPPENING IN FRONT OF OUR GODDAMN EYES?
This is endlessly infuriating.
Schumer as a major American metro is being brutally occupied by Trump goons: "The affordability crisis will be our focus throughout 2026 because that's what the American people are demanding"

Scrolling while I wait for a sandwich at a whole foods deli. The cognitive dissonance, the rage, the ordinary lives happening all around me. I want to scream so loud it makes every person in this store - in this city - stop and stare and cry.

Let that sink in. Fucking hell.
Minneapolis City Council member Jason Chavez: "Many of our immigrants neighbors are picked up simply by moving their cars. Help your neighbors take out the trash, because there are many reports of neighbors being kidnapped when they're taking their trash out."

What’s it like to wake up in country that just illegally bombed a sovereign nation and kidnapped its president, then told you that a ski mask wearing gestapo has absolute authority to murder, and think: “the most important thing right now is that people need to be nicer to Chuck Schumer”

“why do people use works of fiction to illustrate the evils of fascism instead of real life history” idk dude everyone’s been so under-taught and over-propagandized to that sometimes the only way for the truth to sneak in is with the shroud of fiction

It's time to state clearly that if MAGA and Republicans can't condemn any part of this shooting, continue to blame the victim for it, and even hint that it's a just outcome that others "deserve," that's a crossing of the line that the rest of us won't ever be able to forget.
Rep. Randy Fine: "If you impede the actions of our law enforcement as they seek to repel foreign invaders from our country, you get what's coming to you. I do not feel bad for the woman that was involved."
