wtf making signs and chanting gonna do bro. How many no kings protests before we realize unless you're wealthy and/or white you might as well be dead
protests don't do s*** but people are putting their bodies and clearly now lives on the line to get in the way of ICE arrests and it has been working at least in my city
Why did she try to say "attempt to accelerate"
? She was trying to drive away scared.
Everyone on the right is going to try to harp on that smh
there’s extended video that shows exactly what happens this shouldnt matter
Murdering people in the street is the massive escalation, wtf?
I just don't have faith in the average American that they give a f***. Time has shown us all this.
So there’s no authority to stop ICE mauraders from shooting people indiscriminately; but even if there was, what could said authority do about it? Cops support ICE and are outnumbered regardless; can’t be calling on the National Guard either. Whats to be done?
She clearly wasn’t trying to run them over, but unfortunately the video angle will give right wingers just enough “evidence” to claim that hat she did try to hit them with her car
And Trump is going to say the same thing.
Which is going to set a very very dangerous precedent going forward… “if you show any resistance to ICE they can use deadly force”
The snowball effect of this is going to be horrendous

Ppl getting involved with their community is the only way out of this and is a lot more than no kings protests ..
They ARE all on the same side tho lol. It’s more accelerated when Rs are in office but dems helped set the stage for all of this to happen and are still sitting on their hands as we watch this unfold
In general sure, but in specifics when it comes to Trump, he was for sure and by FAR a waaaay worse option in this case regardless of how you felt about both parties

Yep totally what I said

100%
When I say on the same side I don’t mean exactly equal but dems enable this even if they don’t participate in the same way (and plenty of times they do…)

Pray for ICE. Wow.
Yeah I agree with your last statement but the point I’m making is that the democrats being against this should not be taken in good faith. They show their complicity time and time again by “turning the other cheek” or “they go low we go high”. It’s intentional.
Point taken. I don't have a better idea than that I'd rather protest democrats and push the Overton window away from neoliberalism while they're in power than have to fight against minorities being disappeared or killed while the rest of our societal fabric is severely damaged under this current admin.
But to your point, the real answer isn't backing either horse. I'm just heartbroken by the violence that will be required to see the other side of this.
Pray for ICE. Wow.

Maybe I'm gonna get swarmed over this but f*** that bro. Unless it's my friend or family member getting attacked I'm not losing my life for anyone in this country.
I've spent the last 6 years of my life working for nonprofits and specifically working with undocumented immigrants. I'm a child of immigrants. Undocumented immigrants have been getting f***ed over for years. Even during the Obama administration. Undocumented immigrants are the backbone of this capitalist bs. All sold a fallacy in the "American dream" Everything you're seeing unfold rn is an all of our faults in one way or another. Either by choosing not to inform yourself because it's "negative" or allowing yourself to be manipulated (hence continuous lack of funding in education)
The US is f***ed and my heart weeps for future generations but I'm not gonna die for its next revolution. My goal is to survive and start a nonprofit in another country in the next few years. Only thing tying me to this s***hole rn is my mom but she is getting old and sicker every year. Once she passes I'm outchea and I don't feel like I owe this country or the people in it s***. I'm first generation and I worked my way through school. I'm more American than any of these mags clowns will ever be

Salute to you brother
I had death threats for saying this in August in the elections thread from a certain poster who I will not name because I am lightly scared they could somehow find me irl with their crazy ass
I know who you're talking about. @PapiPedro is a sicko

That Nokings protest s*** was so f***ing pathetic
That Nokings protest s*** was so f***ing pathetic
Yes for sure there is a vibe of corny neoliberalism to them but I’m never mad at anti imperialist protests
I would always rather them happen than not
