Struck by rereading this 2020 essay from Mariame Kaba, "Yes, We Mean Literally Abolish the Police. Because reform won’t happen."
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/12/opinion/sunday/floyd-abolish-defund-police.html
"When the streets calm and people suggest once again that we hire more black police officers or create more civilian review boards, I hope that we remember all the times those efforts have failed."
These ICE thugs are absolute scumbags. Nothing they do inspire any confidence, nor are they making the nation any safer. Tides will turn one day and the current authorities will see the insides of prison cells along with their minions.

I'd found an article about Cu0mo slinging Islamophobic slurs, but this list from Media Matters is more illustrative. With too many quotes and plenty of footnotes, these conservatives display our #fascist #USA #white #supremacy clearly.

@loganer Except "#AI" solely is being pushed as a #Bubble to #precariate #WageWork, increase #Theft from #Society to #Billionares and espechally #defund and #divest #PublicInfrastructure and #Education.
Calling an NPC an "AI" is far fetched given it's merely a #bot with a set list of rules to follow.

On how Israel loves to shoot itself in the foot. This is so absurd..
"The Israeli government has gone fully ballistic and threatened the funding of Israel’s own national film awards, the ‘Ophirs’, after a film about a Palestinian boy – The Sea – won the ‘Best Feature Film’ prize"
Just because it shows a bit of apartheid in it, and doesn't praise the IOF. The film is Hamas obviously.

Yeah if a LEO, even on their own time, shows themself on social media to be a racist, classist ass, I’m not going to trust them in their professional duties. You have that much power over other people you had better put their interests first every. damn. time. #Defund
#Trump #Republicans cancelling CPB to #defund #PBS & #NPR effectively ends many of America's only emergency alert systems especially in rural areas. They are turning every American county into #KerrCounty #Texas where over a hundred people died from predicted flooding because their elected GOP leaders repeatedly voted against funding an effective alert system.

*Mayor "First-Stop-Istanbul" Adams* has vetoed a law that came from the City Council 40-8! (3 abstentions)
What a fascist tool he is, quite literally, doing the bidding of the current regime, harassing hard working immigrants (virtually all street vendors are)...
2024 saw NYPD tickets against street vendors DOUBLE compared to '23!

nationalism is a poison.
think before you taut the good ol Meriklan values of the red white & blue
what color is justice?
what lines in the sand protect from bombs?
what flag can shield from a scorched earth?
who does this $erve & for what purpose?

Exhaustive 2020 article showing myriad ways to protect yourself from tear gas. Seems difficult to combine goggles with masks since they both want access to the bridge of your nose. Worth noting that your exhale is not masked, so some add pieces of respirator masks, to protect others.

The Democratic National Committee is going to give away free T.A.C.O.s on Taco Tuesday at noon, outside the Republican National Committee's D.C. offices. Begins June 10, not clear how many days. I hope he posts about it on his wittle pwatform.

There is no kind of hate, like Christian love. FL banned pride bridges cuz FL, but protesters marched w/ home made lights. So FL raised the bridge on them(!), cuz FL. So the protesters went to a different bridge & lit it up for pride.

It Turns Out That Trump Can't Defund #NPR And #PBS
@npr and @pbs are part of a private #nonprofit corporation, which means that Trump can't #defund them, because they aren't a part of the #federalgovernment.
