Fuck ICE. Love you, Los Angeles.

The same people saying "You're playing right into Trump's hands" were saying "Do not comply in advance" a couple months ago.

The LA protests will trigger a drumbeat of "law and order" messaging from the White House and their media allies as a prelude to invoking the Insurrection Act. This is entirely predictable, and any Dem or media outlet that facilitates this narrative will be aiding Trump's authoritarian project.

They're cowards. Somehow, protest is always "exactly what [insert leader] wants" in their eyes.

Remember yesterday when I was like "it's fine if people are wrong on the internet?" That doesn't apply to posting bad remedies for tear gas/pepper spray. Anyone telling you to put milk in people's eyes is to be corrected with as much patience as you have capacity for.

They are the 'protest the right way people' who never actually protest anything. Good to ignore them.

this gap in understanding/assumption their constituents are stupid is endemic across "blue" leadership that is pro cop. YOU ARE ON THEIR SIDE BITCH.

I remember some black folks saying "immigration isn't a black issue. We have our own problems to worry about" during every election cycle. Now look. Be clear, they're coming for all of us.

If you live near Fox Hills Mall and don’t want to run into ICE, don’t go there today!

As a Black woman who watched these people support the Dems raising police budgets AFTER the 2020 uprisings. . . I feel comfortable saying. . . they're not gonna wake up.

If ICE agents have families who haven’t convinced them to get out of the child snatching profession, then they can get bent too.

Not a medic? Bring filtered water jugs and first aid supplies

I agree...but that also doesn't mean we comply in advance. Also, the reality is that *we outnumber them*

USIan police have been "militarized" since the 70s. Militarization is not the main problem. US policing itself is the issue.

Came out of 2020 saying. . . "defund the police was too much" and "defund the police is a bad slogan" and "you don't really mean defund the police." I've been okay with leaving the "late bloomers" behind since then.

Guess I should be clear the gear isn’t the issue but the unaccountable and well-resourced institutions creating violence to reinforce “order”

SEIU-USWW President, my friend, and constituent David Huerta was thrown to the ground, tased, injured and arrested for exercising his 1st Amdnt right to observe and document law enforcement activity. This isn’t just an overreach — it’s a nationwide pattern of suppression. We must stand together.

Now it's abolish ICE again for some of you but you don't actually mean it.

I hope you all understand that in conjunction with US support of the genocide in Palestine, all signs point toward the current activities of ICE being the beginning of ethnic cleansing in the US.

People in my TL are sharing advice about playing Tetris to mitigate the onset of PTSD in the wake of seeing a car deliberately drive into a crowd of protesters—in this case ICE in LA but the point is people have experience with this JFC.

Reminder that tear gas is a chemical weapon that is illegal to deploy in warfare, yet cops are allowed to blanket civilians in clouds of the stuff.

The police don’t protect people. The police protect power. That’s why we didn’t want to militarize them.

to be clear we'd still hate these bitches since theyre kidnapping our families in neighbors but the whole "leaning into the aesthetics of fascism" probably isnt helping

even if ICE was doing this with their full legal names out and faces uncovered IT WOULD STILL BE FASCISM
