I say this as someone who reluctantly voted for "no matter who" every general election in my entire adult life, and watched my extorted vote go to waste as "no matter who" lose two out of three elections to Trump anyway:
*YOU* do not get to whine about being held hostage, you election-losing FUCK!

If these people weren't MAGA trolls deliberately following the CIA's "Simple Sabotage Field Manual" to hinder anti-ICE activity, I suggest they read that book in order how to learn to STOP doing everything it says.

I grew up immersed in science fiction fandom as a kid because my dad didn't just "collect" the books, he rented vendor space in conventions, and I got recruited to lug boxes around. (oh man, the costumes girls wore in the early 80s...)
I still like the FICTION, but I can pass on "other fans" now.

Change often ends up ~being~ incremental, but not all change is achieved by a plodding, deliberate strategy of "incrementalism".
If you start negotiations with "I'll accept one-tenth of what I really want, for now" you pre-emptively eliminate the chance of getting HALF of it off the bat.

The first and last time I felt "this isn't the show I grew up with!" like a punch in the guts was Christopher Eccleston as Doctor Who, and even then I had the self-awareness to recognize the absurdity that half of what I hated was alien planets NOT looking like British rock quarries.

I was annoyed when I had to turn off my adblocker to read the article.
Then I was amused/horrified when the ads the article was so insistent on me looking at were ads for a ~tropical island getaway~.

I just googled "the Green Scare", and it sounds like a bunch of people getting arrested for ARSON.
If you want people to hear you've been arrested and think "wow, that's a bullshit pretext!", maybe avoid committing arson.

If someone told me a month ago that I'd be on WILL STANCIL's side of an argument against leftists, I'd think they were crazy. But here we are.
A popular movement thrives on ATTENTION, not secrecy. Trump has a million ways to penetrate "opsec", but he can't arrest an entire city for hating him.

Homan is the guy who first proposed separating immigrant children from their parents as a matter of policy in 2014.
He wasn't "just following Trump's orders", this was under the Obama administration.
if he "doesn't want anyone to die" it's because he wants them to SUFFER more.

If you told me yesterday that spineless Democrats were about to put ANY sentence together with "abolish" and "ICE" in it, I would have been skeptical.

It would be funny to ask Kyle Rittenhouse to ENDORSE a gun control law, but merely naming one after him has the boringly un-ironic interpretation that he typifies the problem the bill is designed to solve.

It's hard to remember, but before Russia invaded Ukraine, Zelensky was mostly seen as an ex-comedian struggling with a very mixed reputation in politics.
If Russia hadn't invaded, nobody would care about "the cool opinion he always had in theory" about the relative value of rides versus ammunition.
