Bullies are never on your side. If you think they are, you are complicit. From "ICE and Them": www.eightminefortress.com/surewhynot/i...

Text: A lot of support for beefed up police and border enforcement comes from the idea that, even if they just use the Constitution as a napkin, at least those on the receiving end are “those” people, not “us”. These goons are on “our” side.

Until they aren’t.

That’s the simple fact about bullies. They are never your allies. They might convince you of that, so you look the other way when they torment others, that those they torment deserve it and should have acted better. But sooner or later, you’re in their sights. And you’re the one who should have acted better. Because all along, you were their victim just as anyone else, only you were also a useful idiot.

A useful idiot who disastrously undermined our vital national document enshrining our rights just because a couple of Spanish-speaking 20-year-olds outside the grocery store made you uncomfortable.

Never forget the aftermath of September 11th.

When the attacks happened, we were shocked and hurt and looking for answers. We were vulnerable.

And in the time that followed, our vulnerability was exploited.

We were kept scared while being told we were brave. We were told they could never take our freedom while we allowed our freedom to get taken by those telling us this. Our fear and anger were encouraged by those who found it useful.

Posted July 4, 2018: "This Is Not Who We Are" Rather bittersweet now. www.eightminefortress.com/surewhynot/i...

I don’t say “This is NOT who we are!” to gloss over history or the reality that there are people in this country who are exactly this.

I say it as a demand. A reclamation. A plea.

Because we are a big diverse country, far beyond the white conservative archetype to whom “Make America Great Again” is supposed to appeal. We’re black. We’re Muslim. We’re Jewish. We’re atheists. We’re Native American. We’re Spanish speakers. We’re Chinese speakers. We’re Arabic speakers. We’re disabled. We’re gay. We’re trans. We’re non-binary. We’re scientists. We’re journalists. We’re activists. We’re artists. We’re innovators. We’re travelers. We’re citizens of the world. We’re the ones who actually make this country great.
