I know, I know, allow people to change etc but saying β€œbefore I got thrown in a concentration camp I just assumed all the people being thrown in concentration camps deserved it” is CRAZY

It’s not β€œidentity politics” to not want to be denied equality or mistreated because of your identity. In case anyone was wondering.

Tomorrow everyone will be asking: when will the Russo-Ukrainian war end? The right question is: what can we do to make the Russian invasion fail?

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

I can't say how much I hope Jasmine Crockett defeats James talirico in the election. I think she is the real deal, a very genuine defender of democracy. People like her offer the greatest hope that the US will not slide further into fascism.

Opinion | What Exactly Is a β€˜Concentration Camp’?

"Always, always, always concentration camps are an end run around the existing legal system. These people that are getting rounded up because whoever’s in power wants to do something that they can’t do using the letter of the law..."

Back in the day, appropriation law would not even allow names to be used on official department stationery. What funds are paying for banners???

My time got messed up when I adopted a child and it was not fixed when I retired 20 years later. And the mistake was in my favor. Could not get the system to care.

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.

Colbert and Kimmel have met the moment under our slide into fascism in a way that institutions, press, and the Democratic Party haven’t

We are polluting our air and running out of drinking water so we can render fake photos of people with six fingers and so that students can mindlessly have computers do their homework for them?

Win-win in the dystopian Trump world we live in!

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.

We really are not a very good-natured country.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

HUR special forces wrote the names of fallen Ukrainian athletes known as Angels of Sport on a combat helmet backing the protest against the IOC disqualifying athlete Heraskevych for his memorial helmet.

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.

No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.

Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?

No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

ICE was flawed from day one... born out of post-9/11 fear and built on policies that blurred national security with domestic control. Some systems don’t need reform. They need to be abolished.
