The amount of pearl clutching over vacation homes getting washed into the sea in SoCal over on instagram is astonishing. People just have no critical thinking skills. Beach front “homes” typically are not permanent residents. Usually they are just cash generators for rich people.

Multiple things are true here. This is a fascist, authoritarian administration. It has not yet fully consolidated power. Some of its efforts to do so have been frustrated. Trump is a doddering, confused egomaniac who started an unpopular war that's costing everyday people a lot of money.

Crime is a social construct enacted by the ruling class/party to further their own agenda. The real violations are coming from the federal government. This is the face of fascism and it could get worse.

The reality in this country is that the VAST majority of people who experience sexual violence will never tell the cops. Ever. This born out by all statistics but if you've survived sexual violence you also know this from your personal experience. There are many reasons for this. But again...

ICE and police are not distinct entities. Regardless of what local and state governments stipulate, police and sheriffs collaborate with ICE in both obvious and covert ways. All authoritarian institutions interlock. Abolish ICE means abolish the police. We have to conclude the work begun in 2020.

It's hard to even know where to start. First, "libertarian" was a leftist word until it was consciously coopted from us by the right wing. Throughout much of the rest of the world, it continues to be short for "libertarian socialist."

If you believe ICE is a 'rouge' agency that functions as a paramilitary force aimed at violent suppression of speech + protest that challenges the regime along with attacking entire communities of people - then consider expanding that analysis to law enforcement as a whole.

Strong Roots & Wide Branches Podcast Episode 2, Unpacking. youtube.com/@polytheistlerningcommunity. Celestial background with tree roots.We all come to the table with our preset assumptions, 
cultural biases, and default religious beliefs. The religions and cultures in which we were raised influence the way we think about foundational concepts. These old, ingrained assumptions can both subtly and deeply impact how we approach all aspects of religion and spirituality. Let’s unpack some of these unconscious biases together. By bringing these subconscious assumptions into our awareness, we are better able to discern between ‘default beliefs’ and ‘chosen beliefs’, empowering us to make more conscious choices as to which beliefs and practices we choose to carry forward.
