These are not detainments—they are kidnappings. These are not deportations—they are human trafficking. These are not detention centers—they are concentration camps. Language matters. This is fascism.

hey remember when bush used the patriot act to expand executive power to dangerous fashy levels and then obama expanded those powers and then trump expanded those powers and then biden expanded those powers? probably nothing to worry about!

It is hard to always be positive but it is even harder to always be negative xox

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

A law without enforcement is a suggestion. Tyrants don't take suggestions.

1937: "Degenerate Jewish cabal!" 2025: "Woke Immigrant conspiracy!"

Reminder: NOBODY is a criminal until they've gone through a due process of law. George Floyd was not a criminal - cops summarily executed him. Abrego Garcia is not a criminal - he never faced a trial. Same with most of the guys at Gitmo.

Paying taxes with tears in my eyes knowing what they're paying for - disappearing innocent people to a concentration camp in El Salvador. What have we become?

I have long said that if you create the apparatus to dehumanize the foreigner it will be turned on residents who oppose the regime. A concentration camp is just a prison where inmates are sent without due process of law

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

Sooner or later, we're ALL going to be Kilmar Abrego Garcia

pretty crazy watching the american president on live tv in the oval office planning the construction of concentration camps in a foreign country to house americans

Before press came in — but while live feed was running on Bukele’s feed — Trump said to him: “home-growns are next. … You’re gonna need to build about 5 more places.” x.com/nayibbukele/...

I am beginning to wonder if Heydrich Reinhard was an immortal being of evil and Stephen Miller is just his latest public name. Either way, Miller will do the Spandau Ballet if justice exists.

us government went from telling miners “learn to code” to telling coders “learn to mine” in less than ten years

Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

"The Left" hasn't been at the levers of power in living memory

Reminder: these concentration camp internees have not been established to be criminals. That requires a fair trial by due process of law

My car got hit and run in the night, I can't get financing on the new one I like, I'm tired, a little dysphoric today, the concentration camps my county has run since at least 2002 are expanding, and my marriage could be annulled by the fascist government. No amount of CBT & Zoloft is enough

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

democrats in 2009 had larger majorities than republicans do now, but they weren't able to do anything but bank bailouts and romneycare. ask yourself why

I'm not really convinced any deportations are good. You're telling me you've found someone who is a criminal and you want me to pay my tax money to ship them home where they likely won't face any justice? Ok mate

If you can't prove your citizenship well enough to to vote... ...then you can't prove your citizenship well enough to keep from being deported to a South American prison.

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is. Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.

"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." - President Lyndon B. Johnson

"What causes homosexuality?" asks homophobe who'll leverage that information to exterminate homosexuals. "What causes transgender-ism?" asks transphobe who'll leverage that information to extermine trans folks. "What causes autism and ADHD?" asks ableist who'll levera...

I need y'all to understand that, to the fascist, the logical conclusion of "autism is an epidemic" is the mass sterilization and/or incarceration of autistic people.

Did I spend my evening drawing up a book cover for the draft that I’m very closed to finishing. Yes, yes I did. Also I never thought of book characters as OC’s but I guess they are. Meet Reed and Ethan.

"Never Again!" *Does human rights abuses over, and over, and over, but somehow it's okay because they're brown?*

It is so crucial for us as a species to finally learn the lessons of Reconstruction and Nuremberg because if we come out the other side i do NOT want to be doing this again in 20 years

As *the* target audience for the whole “white suburban slightly crunchy mom who does yoga and works in tech” bit, lemme just say: -food isn’t medicine -stop taking ivermectin you weirdos -autism rates have gone up because we’re better at diagnosing it -get your goddamn vaccines

jury nullification is am extremely important thing to do while juries are still a thing

We will never cure autism for two reasons. The first is that autism is not a disease any more than left-handedness. The second is that it requires social change for accommodation, and our society refuses to accommodate anything it has pathologized (read: declared immoral)

No worries! Worrying intensifies xox
