The problem with saying "violence isn't the answer" is that highly organized violence already exists and is being perpetrated against all of us to varying degrees every day.

All you're doing is accepting that violence as a part of life and demonizing any self-defense against it.

The same administration terrorizing immigrants with ICE raids is waging war abroad. These struggles are connected. Defend our neighbors. Hands off Venezuela.

Gentle reminder that EVERYONE shot by ICE or the police is innocent. Every single one. Cops aren't Judge Dredd. A person is innocent until proven guilty IN A COURT, so until a person is found guilty by a judge or jury, they're innocent. They're ALL innocent.

Funny how all the white people who were saying "enjoy the camps" to poc for criticizing the harris are now demanding ICE be abolished in the wake of them killing a white person. Btw, they were same people who were celebrating ICE conducting operations in dearborn recently

This is also why authoritarians in both parties are so intent on censoring social media. For decades cops murdered with impunity and the press repeated their lies as fact. Now everyone can document abuse and instantly share it with millions of people. That makes those in power scared. Good.

For the last few months, I kept a document where every time I saw reports of fed immigration agents shooting or pointing their gun at someone, I made a note. The list grew and grew. It now includes 4 deaths. Here is what I noticed keeping that list. www.themarshallproject.org/2026/01/07/i...

Before ICE Shooting, Immigration Agents Repeatedly Used Deadly Force
The killing of a Minneapolis woman is latest by ICE and Border Patrol officers in recent months. Others have been wounded or threatened with guns.

Perfectly reasonable folks are not using reason. Dems who spent the last 20 years (ESPECIALLY the last 5) cutting every social program they could, to make sure cops were so extensively militarized they dont NEED to answer to anyone, are not going to save us. We need to help each other survive now.

Racism is rampant in America. This is a fact. Nobody is trying to detract from a tragedy by pointing this out. They are only highlighting the hypocrisy inherent in American society. Many people don't even realize how much they subconsciously favor white people until tragedy strikes.

Allowing violence upon the most vulnerable of us (bipoc folks, trans folks, disabled folks, etc) means that EVERYONE will be subject to violence eventually. If you do not stop it toward them, it will not stop toward you. It will just keep happening.

The thing is ICE has killed multiple people this past year, but it wasnt seen as a problem at large because they were all Black and brown people. ICE killing people didnt become a major issue until it was a white person.

What’s happening on X with AI generated sexual images is problematic, not because it’s porn but because it’s non-consensual, harmful content being published by X. And for those wondering, Section 230 DOES NOT protect it.

A page that looks like a scan from an old game magazine. A circular graphic contains a watercolor illustration of an enthusiastic wormlike dinosaur thing with a smiling yellow star and a worried looking blue diamond. A box in the lower half contains an illustration of a treasure box with a funny face, decorated with white crosses. In front of it are a green potion, a gold coin, and a silver key.
There are also 2 game screenshots. One is of a title screen, featuring the dinosaur like worm, and one is of the same character standing in a little stonework house before a blue spheroid face, which is speaking.

The text on the page is one continuous statement and does not relate to the images. It says:
Header: Wondering how young I’ll die.
Featured text, next to round illustration: We now take it as granted that the western empires will collapse.
Title screen screenshot: In a real sense, it has already happened.
House and dialog screenshot: we were born into a dead world.
Text below screenshots: and now decay begins. We, having prepared all our lives for a future that can never arrive, feel lost. We must go on living. But what will life be, and how long can it last? America has become a nation of endless plagues

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.

newsone.com/6507324/what... Such a smart analysis and a must read. “The message to South Shore, and by extension to every city Trump has marked for blitz, is unmistakable: we can treat your block like a battlefield. That is not policing. That is a business model.”

What Is The Real Motive Behid Trump’s Chicago ICE Raid?
This is not immigration enforcement or policing. This is the state, in collusion with capital, practicing how to turn entire neighborhoods into training grounds.
