The US let the seeds of this fester for so long. This kind of expansion is what I wrote ONE LONG NIGHT to try to stop, but even thoughtful people had a hard time imagining what could happen. Someone from the Obama administration I interviewed a decade ago just sent me this article.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, Iโ€™m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

Just sit with this for a moment. Israel perpetrated what is certainly the largest single mass killing of trans people in history. And it's basically a footnote in an article in the NYT covered weeks after it happened.

Transamorophilia - A paraphilic condition characterized by an intense fixation among certain older cisgender men on the pursuit of trans women, often accompanied by a compulsive need to intellectualize their attraction through poorly attended conferences and long blog posts.

Non-Violence is not pacifist. The intention is to expose the violence of the oppressor in contrast, direct actions are not pacifism, but confrontation. Donโ€™t get these things confused when you hear calls to remain non-violent. Itโ€™s a well honed tactic, which, reveals state violence, effectively.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."
