I will never get used to the disdain our country holds for brown and Black children.
From Palestine to Iran to Sudan, we normalize the destruction of schools and hospitals and daycares. We reduce children to death tolls and their futures to rubble with no consequence or second thought.
The phrase βpreemptive strikeβ is as insulting as when we were sold βhumanitarian pausesβ in the middle of a live-streamed genocide. The powerful looking you straight in the face and telling you your common sense simply doesnβt matter.
Also, just to be clear, WE ARE THE BAD GUYS IN THIS SITUATION! WE ARE SADDAM CIRCA 1990!
We lost a lot,
We lost everything.
Weβre rebuilding from zero.
And your support means more than words can say.
Hope is still alive with you

When I say I stand on business this what I mean.
I donβt care who you vote for, I will fight for your childβs future no matter what.
Three panel comic. Panel 1: baby monkeys in overalls jumping on a bed, having fun. Panel 2: one of the monkeys falls over the edge of the bed, reaching out as he falls. Panel 3: one of the other monkeys, now looking super buff and badass, grabs him by the arm to save him heroically. βMonkey Stronger Together.β
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."
Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says theyβve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.
Donβt be fooled by headlines when theyβve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.
"Maybe all we do is frustrate," Star said. "Give someone one more day with their daughter or their dad.
"But if you lost your dad, or you lost your daughter, you would give anything to have one more day with them. And thatβs what we can do.β

Goddamnit.
God fucking damnit.
Happy Bad Bunny Day! βππ°
When I saw the Bad Bunny show I didn't freak out, I enjoyed it, reveled in the majesty of the performance, the rich subtext of history being showcased, and the sheer talent of everyone involved. I want to be in a world where everything isn't for *me* but instead invites me to learn and grow.
ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps.
If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...
America and Israel : Now in the same class of cruelty and brutality, as various Third World dictatorships.
And their voters, knowingly and deliberately, VOTED FOR IT.
What does that tell you about the average American or Israeli?

Y'all should learn how to cook and it's actually a ton of fun to cook with family+ friends and it is a genuine skill you can work on your entire life and the JOY you get from seeing other people eat and enjoy your food is soul restoring... if you disagree take your mental health issues elsewhere.
The US is traumatizing thousands of kids in detention camps. But we are also traumatizing *millions* of kids who are in hiding or fear their parents being snatched.
Like how we have tens of thousands of kids who have survived school shootings, and a whole generation shaped by active shooter drills.
hammam is a nurse and my friend
help him pls
Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left.
It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too
All media should be publicly or worker owned
Naah, I want them on trial.
We didn't say body cams on ICE. Their murders are already on video. We said no more ICE.
[upbeat zohran voice] I'm here at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany, where 80 years ago some important progressive work started [smash cut] but hasn't ended. So here's what we're doing:
Saying you find the Epstein files βboringβ is just a thinly veiled way to say you donβt believe the victims. I expect to see a lot more of that from certain media elites
Liam made people look. Now donβt look away.
We still have children in ICE custody eating bad food, drinking questionable water, living in filthy conditions, and carrying a lifetime of trauma they shouldnβt have to survive.
