This is so terrifying. I can’t even watch it. Like a horror movie

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

after running surveillance on her apartment for several days in advance

deeply unsettling

A cat has more humanity than these masked thugs.

This is a mile from my house. I don't think I have the words to describe my emotions right now. Anger doesn't begin to cover it.

Who can walk past this shit and not start throwing punches?

jadedietzdance.bsky.social•4 days ago

People who aren't physically capable of taking on 6 adults, for starters.

genatrius.bsky.social•4 days ago

No one can, all those guys have guns. I'd be swiss cheese but I'd go to Sto-vo-kor

This is apartheid all over again. I am getting triggers.
No warning.
No warrant.
No identification.
No reason.

Just a naked show of, and abuse of power.

Jesus fucking Christ!

It is now like ruzzia or communist country!

People need to raise hell over this. The pro-Palestine crowd is higher on the list than most, and they won't stop with them.

To put it bluntly, no one is safe with actions like this being conducted against dissenters.

I know the intersection where it happened, I walk a couple blocks away pretty regularly.

Some day, hopefully soon, these thugs will have their own Nurnberg trials.

Seriously. If a bunch of people (particularly men) hiding their identities surrounded me, physically laid hands on me, and tried to tell me I had to go with them or else, I’d be panicking even before they showed any badges. The badges wouldn’t make it better, either.

Please tell me people got plate numbers on these vehicles.

zeppeledlin.bsky.social•4 days ago

No masks at protests yet your Gestapo can wear them? Fucking facists.

dgraye.bsky.social•4 days ago

6 thugs in mask to detain a college student over what was probably a social media post. To borrow term from our UK friends (at least I hope they are still our friends), they are cunts.

erinsneller.bsky.social•4 days ago

Are they showing badges? How would you know they are not just kidnappers/human traffickers? That IS terrifying. I would have completely panicked and freaked out if I were her.

genthespacewitch.bsky.social•4 days ago

If they have no badges or arrest warrant, that IS kidnapping. She was literally kidnapped.

loresey.bsky.social•4 days ago

I wonder if it's part of their tactics. Don't show badges, person freaks out, then you've got 'resisting arrest' or 'struck an officer' or whatever 😢

It should deeply disturb everyone.

A judge ordered, within an hour, that she not be removed from MA. But they can’t locate her. No one knows where was she was taken.

This could be any of us, or our kids at school, or our parents. Truly. They’re kidnapping people off the street in broad daylight.

nhwharfrat.bsky.social•4 days ago

just reported that she's been sent to Louisiana

Can't wait for all the rw creeps to be like "don't want to get detained? don't do crimes or support terrorism" and then refuse to acknowledge that NONE OF THESE PEOPLE DID EITHER OF THOSE THINGS

thekrakensays.bsky.social•4 days ago

That’s pretty much what’s in the comments of every Instagram news story about this stuff. Though, tbf, it’s hard to tell how many of those are troll farm commenters.

fandomleo.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yeah I've stopped engaging with the news on social media for the most part, because otherwise I may lose what remains of my faith in humanity

thekrakensays.bsky.social•4 days ago

It’s so bad. And dumb. And hateful.

But then so are the people where we live.

It’s hard to hang on.

kesi.bsky.social•4 days ago

looking like >:( at a T/sla is considered terrorism now

fandomleo.bsky.social•4 days ago

Kesi if I disappear it's because they decided that me buying an affordable car that actually functions instead of an ugly money pit that catches on fire is "threatening national security" now

thekrakensays.bsky.social•4 days ago

I wonder if they will assign us all personal incinerator transport devices in the coming days. So much simpler for him to just lock us into our cars and cook us if we mean tweet about him.

pierrotinnyc.bsky.social•4 days ago

I can't either.

nancy-willauer.bsky.social•4 days ago

This cannot continue to happen.

katelynbruhn.bsky.social•4 days ago

So when the right is bitching about criminals hiding their identities behind masks, they were once again talking about themselves, huh? Every accusation is a confession.

ethical-chaos.bsky.social•4 days ago

Every last one

gigibones.bsky.social•4 days ago

Every time
