No this is very important

but he used "unauthorized" instead of "illegal" 🙄

Thank you for taking the time to type this out, it's very helpful.

Like, what the linguistic context is, the level of need for integration, like surely someone can be proud to refuse to learn the language of the colonizer?

Beats hiring a human I guess /s

I mean doesn't this very much depend on the language at issue?

Ring is first and foremost a scheme to charge Amazon customers to deter crime that costs Amazon (not the customers themselves) billions annually in refunds, returns, double shipping, and customer service overhead.

Absolutely bonkers to think that this constant surveillance and presence of openly armed officers is being held up as a relatively respectful occupation compared to other US cities.

more of a potato fan than I've ever been after these ads

it's pronounced with emphasis on the *die*

There is already a detention facility in Plymouth MA: www.ice.gov/detain/deten...

Hey as long as they have Goodreads, right?

Is there a link for remote viewing?

The public library is an essential component of a 21st-century left political project as an example of both what is already available to us and what can be improved upon in the future. The library is a public good, and it is free as a public service.

I want more people to make the connections.

fedsoc fascism continues

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc...

Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

stakes are extremely high, literally life or death.

We do NOT need ICE or CBP to have more training or oversight

We do need all border, policing and military angencies to be defunded; end to fed & state partnerships (like sec 287g agreements); end to all detentions & deporations. Abolish borders.

A media establishment, too.

I miss shame.

Folks have to move away from suing as the primary way to address every fucking issue in this country.

We need so much more creativity and focus.

People are being executed in the street over a problem that straight up does not exist and both parties are complicit in the lie

Conflicting info about whether Pretti was murdered by ICE or CBP makes it clear that ICE is not single "rogue agency"

ICE, CBP and ALL policing & borders must be abolished. This isn't just one agency; its an entire infrastructure of carceral control, illegalization & criminalization, and fascism.

The regime will lie. That's what fascist regimes do.

It will continue to murder people in different ways. That's also what fascist regimes do.

Regular people will continue to refuse and to not cooperate and to fight back in all of the ways we can.

You rise to the level of your training and practice, not to the level of your imagined self.

So it's extremely important to get skilled up and to practice. That's what all of the people getting trained in ICE Watch are doing.

If most Liberals called stopped calling for more training and started demanding defunding that would be some progress.

How Many People Have Been Shot in ICE Raids? The Trace is tracking gun incidents connected to Trump’s immigration crackdown. Know of one? Please be in touch.

What particularly stands out from Trace's analysis of fatal shootings and violent incidents since Trump deployed ICE and CBP in their heavily-armed war gear into US cities is that the majority of people they've targeted are women and children. What cowards.

Trump's playing nice with Zohran was the red line for NYT.

The story told here--one where anecdata suggests agency and autonomy have run amok and nameless activists are to blame--certainly rhymes with the NYT's disastrous panic about trans kids. Then you realize it's literally being written by the same author.

The logical end point of Woke 2.0
