i genuinely believe the modern phenomenon of us believing it is our right to be able to avoid all discomfort (stemming from a recent broadening of the capacity to avoid much of it) is at the heart of a lot of really strange and often bad dynamics. it's very tied into control, and our lack of it imo
I kind of want to write about the power of feeling uncomfortable which is something people really like to avoid, but can be quite transformative.

In reversal, Coast Guard again classifies swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The new order came hours after The Post reported the service would instead classify such symbols as “potentially divisive” under guidelines set for release next month.

Who could forget such CDC hits as retracting that COVID is airborne or publishing indoor ventilation guidance the day after the end of the public health emergency order so that they would serve no purpose at all. Anyway, AIDS activist would like a word.

one thing about this is that in the wake of all of this kirk is basically forgotten. he was barely cold in the ground before his allies — before his *wife* — started scheming over what they could take for themselves. a real life parable.
New: Reuters has tallied job losses, suspensions and investigations stemming from the reaction to Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination. Its findings: More than 600 Americans have been punished, and the figure is likely to be an under-count.

So, I'm doing habeas cases, they matter tremendously to the person you get out and their loved ones, but even without the 9 robed fascists on the supreme court, there's simply no way to meaningfully fight what's happening big picture through the courts. It's not the main front in this war.

And in theory someone can still fight deportation from detention, but in reality because ICE can illegally kidnap people, they can control how their case goes generally using their vast caging capacity and utter contempt for "due process" (not that DP is so great, but its absence is...notable).

But habeas cases take a ton of work, and most immigration lawyers don't do habeas. (I just got trained in habeas for free through NIHI, shoutout, look for future trainings from them: cardozo.yu.edu/form/nihi-ny...).
So the vast, vast majority of people being illegally kidnapped don't get out.

What's going with habeas and ICE kidnappings is a perfect example of what I mean when I say courts won't save us.
Recently, ICE/the BIA made up a rule, saying nearly everyone ICE kidnaps is subject to "mandatory detention" (ie, no bail/bond).
282 out of 288 of judges to hear habeas cases disagree.

![The gravamen of this dispute is whether Demirel’s detention is mandatory under INA
§ 235(b) (8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)) or discretionary under § 236(a) (8 U.S.C. § 1226(a)). “The vast
majority of courts confronting this precise issue have rejected [the Government’s] interpretation,
and the BIA’s interpretation in Hurtado, as contradictory to the plain text of § 1225.” Ayala Amaya
v. Bondi, No. 25-16429, 2025 WL 3033880, at *2 (D.N.J. Oct. 30, 2025) (collecting cases). Once
again, of the 288 district court decisions to address the issue, 282 have determined that § 1226(a)
applies or likely applies in situations similar to those presented here. See Appendix. Those
decisions are plainly correct.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:grwhhgszjlgcjesagerdazwj/bafkreigdewkbpqri7ntfjrxpdi74cgzkr3ckmfw6klr3wlaysmjrvpxxzq@jpeg)

Messages you get when you try to book transportation to the castle in Franz Kafka's book of the same name.
I also like now it's phrased in German. It's not "Your train was cancelled." It's "Your train is no longer possible." Far more ominous.

There is a sadness in me when studying deep subjects with people. So many fundamentally refuse to believe that a better world is possible. They refuse to see the clay of the future in their hands and think it is theirs for the shaping. All they do is bemoan that they must make the same old pot.
