  • I didn't really interpret it that way. I took it as "look how annoying people who complain about social justice are".

    I don't think she literally supports slavery but it was clearly an allegory for what she views as annoying activist types.

  • DHS Is Lying To You About ICE Shooting a Woman

  • I swear to god I get menaced by assholes in cars every single day worse than this.

    Actually I didn't even make the connection but on my way back from protesting my local ICE facility last night (which you should all be doing by the way) dude tried to back up into me. I chose to just slowly move out of the way (and flip him off of course) but I guess according to DHS I should have started blasting instead?

  • Seems like a first amendment violation to me. Hope this will be litigated.

  • DHS Officer Seen on Video Kicking Memorial Candle for Renee Nicole Good, Woman Killed by ICE: 'Don't Give a F---'

    Jump

  • Funny to me they're saying it's not clear where this happened. This is my local ICE facility and the site of ongoing protests here in Sacramento for months now--I was talking to the guy in the video about it a couple hours ago. He's a rad dude.

    But I guess they didn't want to spend the time to figure out any context. Lazy journalism is so commonplace nowadays.

  • My favorite part of Harry Potter is when Hermione tries to get everyone to oppose slavery and everyone's just like why are you being so mouthy?

    JK Rowling has views that were regressive for the 1800s. It's amazing we didn't see it sooner.

  • Which healthcare would you choose?

  • Yeah I was gonna say, have the people repeating this actually used American healthcare? We have terrible wait times in addition to our other horrible issues.

  • I guess people are missing my point. People aren't getting those useless degrees for no reason. They're getting them to avoid being discriminated against, and even though, yes they are useless in a practical sense, avoiding that discrimination is pretty valuable.

  • Trump Administration Deploying More Border Patrol Agents to Minnesota | More than 100 agents will be redirected from other cities after the fatal shooting of a woman in Minneapolis by an ICE officer.

  • Yeah it's too bad we don't have clearer video. Like if you watch carefully and thoughtfully, it's pretty obvious what's happening but if you're motivated to lie to yourself, the view is just obscured enough that the deception can survive.

    Like a lot of longtime BLM people were puzzled that George Floyd was the one to break the dam of public outrage because things like that happen all the time. But the difference is it was documented so clearly, so intimately, that there was simply no possible justification. We may need a moment like that to break through with ICE and unfortunately I'm not sure it will be Renee Good just because we had bad luck with the camera angle.

  • It's only happening to a small subset of white people though. This is how fascism operates. They keep taking chunks out of the complacent masses so they don't all rise up at once. That's why solidarity is so important.

    Let's hope they bit off more than they can chew this time but that remains to be seen.

  • Oh, I'm sorry, you misunderstood. Did you think your degree would earn you something? No, what you've gained is the privilege of not being treated like actual garbage and being able to work for some scraps. Count your blessings.

  • Waiting for "somebody" to fight back is pointless, as is lone-wolf retaliation. This a life or death struggle that can only be won by mass organized resistance.

  • I get what you're saying but can you be the aggressor when you're fighting against the foot soldiers of tyranny? It's true the colonists weren't the pure-hearted heroes the national myth portrays them as. But that doesn't make the redcoats innocent bystanders. Their occupation was also a form of violence, and sometimes resisting that violence requires a (hopefully lesser) form of violence.

  • Well first was this guy's ideology really distinct or is he just a fascist who talks about environmental issues as a post-hoc justification to make his objectively deranged actions seem more reasonable? And if he's just a fascist I don't think he need to take his justifications seriously by giving him a newly named ideology.

    But I didn't mean there are no singular eco-fascists anywhere on earth. There are 8 billion people on the planet so I could make up a mad lib ideology and chances are it's similar to what someone somewhere believes. But I've never met one to my knowledge, not even online. There's no organized push for this or political power behind it. The vast majority of fascists don't give a shit about the environment and the vast majority of environmentalists oppose fascism. So the only time I see it mentioned is when people get criticized for discussing the impacts of human population.

    I understand why it's a touchy subject. Past racist policies used overpopulation as a justification for crimes against humanity. But that the human impact on the earth is proportional to our population is just a fact, and it doesn't make you a fascist to acknowledge that. You're only a fascist if you think that fact gives you a right to brutalize people, and, as I've said, I just don't hear this from any organized or popular thinkers.
