Do you want lower rates of "crime"? Do you want increased childhood development and well-being? Do you want lower rates of homelessness? Do you want to reduce overdose deaths? Do you want these things cheaper than ever? Then give people housing, food, schooling, medicine, and support, for free.

Unbelievable image, oh my god

The leopards and their enabling constituents are having a row.

Oh everybody is Black now.

Hey, Iowa, if you're trying to figure out what you can do to support protestors in big cities in their fight against ICE and the US Police State, check out Prairie and Freedom Fund! Helping detainees meet their bonds is one of the most direct ways you can have an impact.

Thing I need all Dems at every level to absorb yesterday: if someone pulls a knife on you, you are in a knife fight, whether or not you want to be

If randomly kidnapping people (including first grade kids) from places of work, education, worship, and immigration appointments and disappearing them without due process to foreign prisons does not meet your definition of fascism, then your definition of fascism is wrong.

*patiently waiting for people to realize that book banning absolutely can result in individuals' ebooks being removed from their ereaders* *also that libraries don't have their own ebook hosting either*

“What if democrats responded meaningfully in this moment” What if the world was made of pudding

It is an EPIDEMIC of hoe ass bitches running around. Yall cant even agree shooting KIDS is wrong. Shut up.

Can't wait for liberals to still be mad when Leftists say the Democrats are also fascists.

We feed you. They hunt us.

If you’re worried about property destruction wait until you hear about climate change

To speak even more plainly, drug dealers and gang members also deserve human rights

It's hard to overstate how destructive the reflexive "this is a distraction!" stuff that politicians and commentators and people are always peddling. Everything is happening all at once. That's how authoritarianism works. If you can't navigate and synthesize this, you're not meeting the moment.

Super late to the party on this, but I don’t think it matters what kind of bullets that cop shot the Australian reporter with. Cops have no business shooting reporters in the first place.

The federal government is telling you they cannot afford to house you, feed you, educate you or heal you — but that they do have enough resources and scale to criminalize, assault, deport and incarcerate your neighbors simply going to work or taking their kids to graduation.

The Democrat party is a fascist party, and its supporters are fascist collaborators. Join the communists.

Keep ICE out of LA Keep ICE out of Iowa City ABOLISH ICE

yeah i love waymo, way mo immigrants coming to my city

The State never intentionally confronts a man’s sense, intellectual or moral, but only his body, his senses. It is not armed with superior wit or honesty, but with superior physical strength. I was not born to be forced. I will breathe after my own fashion. Let us see who is the strongest. ~Thoreau

I’d add this: Decades of studies have shown that large groups want to be seen as legitimate, and largely self-police yahoos prone to violence — *until* law enforcement starts using violence, at which point they unite against a common enemy. It’s a lesson too few PDs ever seem to learn.

A full Tejano band in a big truck rolled into the Olvera St, the lead singer has a Fuck ICE shirt on, and this protest is now a dance party

The young Black people who fought cops in the streets were ALSO part of the Black Freedom Movement which some people call the "Civil Rights" Movement.

if seeing a mexican flag in a protest photo is what makes someone embrace ICE and their tactics, i just don't think they were really an "undecided" or an "independent" or even "on the fence."

Your reminder that virtually all democrats in office are on board with further militarizing the police, border patrol, and ICE

so are the liberals going to keep telling us that 'defund the police' is too far after what's happening with the cops openly collaborating with ICE now?

"Abolish ICE" and "defund the police" were the compromise positions. Trials and gallows need to be on the table from here. We can't accept princes and pretender-kings back into shuffle of potential leaders. We can't allow them to come back for the levers of power again later. They've hurt so many.

I see posts saying protesters aren't brutalized under Dems. I guess right-wingers aren't the only ones fantasizing about a mythical past. I was brutalized at protests under Obama. Folks were brutalized at protests under Biden. We can condemn the escalations of the present w out fetishizing the past.

You focus must be on the state. The state is the instigator of all violence.

They will invent the pretext unless we’re so thoroughly supine they don’t need to, which leads to the same outcome.

"Abolish ICE" needs to be the moderate Democratic position going forward. The progressive position is, "Send everyone who works for ICE to the Hague."

Now is a great time to remember that facial recognition software is far more easily fooled by sunglasses than by face masks. Totally unrelated: Sunglasses, now that I think about them, are probably really useful in Los Angeles at this time of year. Ijs. No reason.

I don't think that the MSM will be useful in covering what's going on. We're going to have to rely on independent journalists and foreign correspondents.

Remember folks, what we let them get away with in LA is what they will unleash on all of us. "We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately." -Ben Franklin.

If you're BIPOC, queer, or disabled, you've already been living under martial law. This alert is only for people who thought their privilege would protect them.

there are over 20,000 vietnamese-americans in los angeles, so good luck to the american army with that

In addition to what Kelly correctly points out, adding "peaceful" in front of shit isn't doing the work you think under fascism and please get it through your heads that you are living under fascism. Adjust accordingly.
