Industrialized agriculture has saved and created billions of lives, but our reliance on it risks taking millions back. Localizing our food supply with sustainable economic food production models is essential to securing our future against the potential for famine and bankrupty.
Remember the example of John Brown, martyr for the advancement of righteousness in the laws of our country. Dignity and grace are what reaches those who reason fails, even when murdered by the state for our principles our dignity is the voice which speaks above all and cannot be silenced.

The reality is millions of conservatives have been rhetorically inciting violence, not protected speech, for years and we have let them get away with it for far too long. Anyone who celebrates a shooting should be charged with incitement to violence.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

We need to keep one thing straight, that man was murdered for interfering with their violence against a woman, they had no idea he was armed until they had already dogpiled and incapacitated him.

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.
There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.
This is my favorite guide.

Absolutely nothing could be worse for our cause than violence and rioting. It is what ICE and Trump obviously want. Do not burn down our own city to protest invaders; they do not care; they will enjoy it. Do not do it. Do not let your fellow protesters do it.

Louder for the radicals in the back 💯
No problem. I am not advocating for anything that will allow Trump to accomplish his goal of invoking the Insurrection Act. You think things are bad now? In your worst nightmare, you could not conjure up how bad life in America will be if he does that.

This is sage advice. Max is right, there's not really any benefit to sharing the video widely. Those who need it will find it.
I'm heartbroken, and there really wasn't any benefit to watching it. We know how cruel they are already.

Choosing not to watch graphic videos of horrific state violence does not mean you are looking away.
Traumatizing yourself with atrocity media does not help bring about justice.
It is ok not to click play.

Don’t watch the video. It was a murder, an execution. You do not need to watch it, it won’t help anyone. Warrants should be issued today if the government up there is anything other than a dead letter.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?
ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.
I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

How fucking ridiculous is Trumps ‘Bored’ of Peace?
Of the 23 countries who’ve signed, 13 are refused visa’s to the USA.
One of the members of the Bored, is a wanted War Criminal.
Over half of the countries who’ve joined, are what the MAGA base would describe as ‘Muslamic shit holes’

💯 Then these politicians say how outraged they are about healthcare and SNAP cuts. Well, 300,000,000 could do a lot for MN. That is just one state. I didn’t see the total funding for the entire US, but I can imagine.

Power is nothing more than the ability to get others to do things for you.
Money is power, because you can pay people to do things.
Law is power, because you can compel people to do things.
Violence is power, because you can compel people to do things.
I don't know why this is so hard for people.

What do you think would take its place? Who holds all the power in the country right now?
Government is the only tool the general population has to protect individuals from the abuses of the powerful. Throwing it away because they got control of it for a bit would just solidify their grasp on power
