I'm furious on behalf of everyone who was brutalized by ICE today in Chicago. My GOD, this is completely horrible.
I've been in meetings most of today and I just checked messages and see that comrades & friends were part of the people they brutalized today.

One of the reasons the right is convinced that violence is only directed at them is their ability to ignore and forget all the acts of violence committed against the other side of the aisle.
Ask Trump about the firebombing of Shapiro's home or the plot to kidnap Whitmer and I guarantee he'd whiff.

So our military just bombed a boat in international waters and extrajudicially killed suspected drug traffickers without so much as a conversation, let alone a trial?
Then posted it on social media?
And weβre all supposed to just trust their account?

Among other things wrong with America, bad anti-American people want to make it illegal to criticize this on college campuses. Some are Trumpists and some are happy to promote Trumpism if it helps them suppress criticism of Israel.

Eucontamination: Disgust Theology and the Christian Life
"The central insight of this creative, well-researched, and highly sophisticated book is that the human disgust reaction has been overpowerful yet underexamined in shaping some of the most destructive expressions of traditional Christianity, including, crucially, its historic contempt toward LGTBQIA+ people. The authors coin the term eucontamination to name what is actually a quite prominent theme in the New Testament - God's grace in Christ, is contamination for good. This is why we need not live out of a fearful purity ethic. They also offer reflection on church practices that can train us in seeing and living this way in the world. I highly recommend this breakthrough work."

When bigots believe merely existing is "confrontational", there's no level of existing that they'll agree with. Not even death, cus then they'll insist that grave markers should be wrong.
Instead, cut bigots out of the conversation all together. They have no need to be present. Ever.

Philly local tv station reporting that a man allegedly posed as an ICE agent in order to rob a car repair business office.

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them.
ABC might as well be state media.
