Shows the fascist creep in media that the framing "But does this video of a guy flipping off ICE agents justify their summary execution of him a week later?" is even remotely entertained.

Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.
