It's growing on me. The multi-color yarn obscured the stitches at first but I think in a large piece it's gonna work.

โThey must allow ministers to assist with their needs. They've been separated from their families and no one knows what happens.โ
Walmart and McDonaldโs are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year โ over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M โ 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?
On August 7, according to the FBI, three men in black vests entered a New York restaurant claiming to be ICE agents. Inside, they tied a worker's hands and pulled a garbage bag over the person's head. Another, believing the burglars' story, surrendered themselves, only to be kicked to the ground and tied up as the intruders robbed an ATM.

We've gotten so inured to this shit. It's just monstrous, horrific behavior.
It's the exact same ideology embraced by the elite enslavers before the Civil War: some people are better than others, and have the right-- and maybe the duty-- to rule. It was the Mudsill Theory then, and it's the Mudsill Theory today, dress it up in whatever elegant language you may.

Itโs not just party leaders folks.
Remember, gang, if youโre yelling insults at ICE, stick to things that will be deeply humiliating if theyโre read aloud in court. Consider โYour parents only love you out of obligation, not because they like you,โ โl bet you jerk off to the Teletubbiesโ and of course, the Yo Mama joke.

They tried to unseat AOC but she really is the OG of using her social media to keeping her support strong.
We are not free until weโre all free.
Letting this kind of rot take hold in cops is why we are standing here today.
This statement is true, and Steve also knows what Iโm about to say, so this is just additional commentary not a correction:
This is not new. Cops have been doing this for ages. Talk back to a cop and theyโll rough you up. They have been doing this and getting away with it for a very long time.
