"The current level of political animosity is exactly what one would expect to see if an extremist faction attempted to rescind the hard-earned rights of the vast majority of the country’s citizens." There are not enough exclamation points to convey how I felt reading this paragraph
Screenshot of article which reads: From this perspective, the “both sides” frame falls apart. The prob-
lem is not that the parties are divided. The problem is the existential 
threat that a reempowered ethnonationalist strain poses to pluralistic 
U.S. democracy writ large. The current level of political animosity is 
exactly what one would expect to see if an extremist faction attempted 
to rescind the hard-earned rights of the vast majority of the country’s 
citizens. The only way to re-oppress most of a country is to use anti-
democratic and authoritarian tactics. And the only way to oppose those 
tactics is to push back as a population and clearly reject them. This is 
the argument happening in the United States, and its pathology is not 
anger—it is the movement to undermine a generation of rights.

In 1974, Cornell lecturer Lin Farley began recognizing a pattern in the experiences women shared in her Women and Work course: women were being pushed out of jobs by men’s sexual behavior. Farley coined the term, “sexual harassment.”

This problem goes far beyond just Trump. ICE is bipartisan- and must be abolished. Charles Leo Daniel for example died under Joe Biden here, sadly. No political party, democratic or republican, should be allowed to use ICE ever again. They murder people regardless of who runs it.

What I'm missing in many discussions on the "remigration" term is how this is fundamentally about race/whiteness and is directly connected to a) conspiracies of the "great replacement" and b) the politics of reproduction and thus a certain gender hierarchy.

Leaked video from an ICE camp details people suffering from tuberculosis, a never ending “flu” & conjunctivitis. ICE enforcement is a mass disabling event. These are concentration camps. They’re a breeding ground for disease which will lead to preventable suffering, disability and death.

They privatized ICE for profit. 70%-75% of the ICE prisoners committed no crime but Geo Group still gets paid per body, per day. Geo group has been proven to have a lot of employees who sexually assault ICE prisoners. Geo Group is no.different than human traffickers and drug cartels.

pushing out diverse people to accommodate diverse views about those people's inferiority, be fucking serious
Screenshotted excerpt from the quote-skeeted article, reading as follows:

"Even though I personally agree with [the diversity and inclusion standard] and what it tries to achieve, I think it's appropriate as an ​accrediting body that we eliminate that standard so we don't inhibit the diversity of ideas out there in ​various types of legal education environments," said David Brennen, a council member and a former dean ⁠of the University of Kentucky College of Law.
