We are so fucking in the wrong here. This sounds like a repeat of Japanese Internment during WW2.

Being so racist against and jealous of Black people that you can't appreciate Stevie Wonder has to be a curse from God.
Marcus 🏳️🌈🇧🇧@marcusjdl.bsky.social · 2w agoMy beef with Morrissey runs all the way back to 1986 when he said this about Black artists. Nineteen Eighty Six, while the Smiths were still active. It’s not a “later phenomenon” don’t try and lie to me www.standard.co.uk/culture/musi...
Watching ICE agents literally run away from a Mount Laurel Starbucks without their coffee because the neighborhood completely rejected them is pure gold. South Jersey will make you unwelcome every single time you show your faces.
Can’t wait to see what they try to do to immunize contractors the same way they have ICE cops.
Kyle Clark@kylec.bsky.social · 3w agoNEW: Aurora Police say an ICE detention center employee shot a protester last night. She is expected to survive. 42-year-old Brandon Booth, who works for the ICE contractor GEO Group, is being held on suspicion of attempted second degree murder and other charges.

/2 Baldy is MT BALDY, A MOUNTAIN, YOU DEGENERATES. Also, I like this casserole. But I am still trying to replicate the chicken tortilla casserole my mom made growing up. It would have been a recipe from the sixties or seventies and very very inauthentic and Americanized.
[puts finger to ear] you're telling me nintendo makes games for children? wow
Ian Bogost@ibogost.com · 2mo agoSorry for posting, but, Nintendo games—on the rare occasions when Nintendo, a video-game company, deigns to make them—seem almost satirically infantile, as if the entire Nintendo project has now moved well beyond mere nostalgia into elaborate, pathological psychological regression.
You don't defeat fascism by choosing tiny slivers of vulnerable populations to sacrifice to it. That's how your coalition shrinks until you die a coward. You defeat fascism by putting the vulnerable populations in the center, and forming a circle around them.

Each of those things were *also* un-American. Not because they weren't done by Americans, and by America, but because they were always contradictory to what America creedally claimed to be: the land where all men were created equal and endowed with inalienable rights
Mikki Kendall@karnythia.blacksky.app · 7mo agoI fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow
Phase 3 is complaing about both a) the rising costs of incarceration an additional 10M+ people, and b) the lack of manual agricultural labor now that undocumented immigrants have been expelled from the US. The answer to both will be "prison labor on a scale not seen since US chattel slavery."
Again, they've written detailed analysis of the financial devastation this would cause... and they don't care.🤷🏿♂️ They accept it. They say explicitly that if US GDP gets cut in half but 100% is white owned, that would be preferable to GDP doubling, but much of that wealth being owned by Asian people
Brandon Friedman@brandonfriedman.bsky.social · 7mo agoThe incel Nazi trolls who posted this would also do well to google "critical mass" and try to figure out what would happen to America's food supply, healthcare system and transportation network if 100 million people were suddenly removed.
For folks still struggling with the math: There are ~345 million US citizens. There are ~245 million white US citizens. This is what they mean by "Peaceful ethnic cleansing." Their plan ends with deporting all non-white people. Not "undocumented criminals." Not even "all undocumented people."
Dag.@3fecta.bsky.social · 7mo agoThis should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.
in your 20s, you'll come across someone who's wrong online. it's very important than you spend the next 40 years of your life learning and arguing about this topic online long after they've moved on, built a career, and raised a family.
Aside: As a kid, I would give people like Carville the old reverse "You are so well spoken." I'd drag the bit out for 10+ minutes. 👴🏻You are so well spoken! 👦🏿And *You* are so well spoken! 👴🏻Huh? 👦🏿Yes! Your speech! It's amazing! Each word, so clear! And your vocabulary is so good for a, umm for --
I would not be in a room alone with this woman. Not because of weird “being alone with a woman” fears, but because she might kill me and eat my eyeballs.

Ethnic cleansing support is deplorable + misguided people. Deplorable: I know that these policies are part of an ethnic cleansing movement, and I am OK with that. Misguided: I am gullible, uncurious, and don't listen to or believe Black people, so I joined an ethnic cleansing movement by accident.
One way out of this might come wrapped in Reaganite branding. Somebody runs on "America Is Open for Business." They'll promise to end tariffs by fiat, reopen global trade, launch a ludicrously expensive marketing campaign to convince tourists they won't be kidnapped. 20% chance it's a Republican.

ProPublica@propublica.org · 10mo agoNEW: The U.S. has long lagged behind other wealthy countries in reducing its stillbirth rate. Now a new five-year, $37 million NIH consortium will prioritize this public health issue. “There’s no question that the ProPublica reporting was intimately tied to this,” one expert said.
