its the vices that they use to cope, alcohol, drugs, underage children…that and i guess the stress that comes with being a subhuman piece of shit, betraying everyone in your country besides a few equally shitty subhumans, all trying to dull the pain of having a hole where their empathy and dignity should be.

if you are a “have not” start hoarding bullets, they are really good at farming gold from the “haves”

ya dont say?

honestly yes, defunding ICE, would be like dismantling the SS in germany. which did happen after WW2, along with the gestapo. they were declared a criminal organization, who committed crimes against humanity.

did all of them suffer for it? no, many of them were reabsorbed into other programs and orgs for the cold war by allies and even germany itself.

but those were only the valuable or lucky members (think project paper clip). most of the remaining less valuable members without good enough connections either fled or faced the nuremburg trials. even those that fled faced trials for decades afterwards.

ICE, if the progressives ever win, will likely be “dismantled” due to public outcry, if not that, its funding will be dramatically reduced to pre trump levels or lower, and those funds put into different agencies, and its less important members will either be absorbed into things like the military, “less extreme” border agencies, the police, national guard, etc. while ones who are proven to have commited terrible acts will likely be charged, if they dont flee in some form afterwards.

this of course is a “hopeful” outlook, history may repeat itself from time to time, but sometimes it plays the telephone game with itself. this is not a blue print, but a potential outcome based on history.

i guess we’ll see. but i HIGHLY doubt the next election will be fair, or have a progressive outcome.

there will likely be a full blown civil war before another “fair” election is had again.

huh, i never once considered her special because of her skin colour, it was more so her acts and the thoughts that she verbalised, simply by being human and going above and beyond to help out her fellow humans, and bring attention to their strife. not saying you are incorrect in assuming the core reason of her popularity was due to her skin tone. but id argue (without trying to sound like a dick) that maybe its more about her actions and willingness to use her privilege, while being an autistic person with severe justice sensitivity, that may be the bigger story here.

we dont need to reduce people to their skin colour and privilege in order to find them worthy of our support, and willingness to accept their support in return. and it shouldnt be frustrating that the person helping you or others doesnt look how you want them to.

its not her skin that makes her special, its her mind and how she uses it. perhaps this speaks more about my own views on race, the worlds, or perhaps its speaks more about yours.

when you are blind, wandering in the dark, a helping hand is a helping hand, afterall.

BUUUUUUT.

if you would like to drop a few names of some other activists with different backgrounds doing good work right now, to bring some light their names, im always down to be inspired. as im sure everyone else in the thread would be as well. :D
