this is nothing like a cage you guys. its a chain-link enclosure
i have a desperate suggestion
Hi hi hello I know I am not active here and I usually go weeks without being on here but I just REALLY need to do this. ICE (Immigration, customs, enforcement) Raids have been happening all over America recently. If you think you see ICE in your area CALL: 617-370-5023. This is ICE watch!! ICE watch is the reason why you may see many videos all over the Internet of people being taken away from their families or violent arrests in Western Massachusetts. If you witness any ICE interactions or arrests in public it is YOUR right to film the interaction as long as you do NOT interfered.
If you are ever in a situation where you are at your house or your work and there is ICE talking to you please do this.
Remember YOU HAVE RIGHTS.
ICE lies about why they are there I do you suspect they are ICE do NOT trust them.
Ask to see their warrant and ID and ask them to slip or show the documents at a window or under the door. If they do have a warrant please make sure it was signed by a judge. Without a warrant signed by a judge ICE is NOT allowed to enter or search your home. Take pictures of whatever they show you.
Do NOT show the agents anything or say anything expect “I do not consent for you to enter my home.” “I do not want to talk to you without my lawyer present.” “Please leave.”
I’m sorry this is not my usual posts and I do not have that big of a platform but please stay safe. Fuck ice. Viva La Raza.
can’t find a post about it so i’m making my own. the spokane 3 trial reached a verdict today and it was Bad. these people (jac archer, justice forral and bajun mavalwalla II) were part of a group of people arrested After the fact for attending a protest last june on charges of “conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers” (none of them injured anyone and a lot of the people there that day were there in response to a facebook post calling for help to prevent ice from kidnapping a community member. not exactly a conspiracy) this is a federal case and they’ve just announced the verdict and all three have been charged with counts of conspiracy. obviously a not great precedent is set by that verdict, though they are hoping to appeal. this is. miserable. posting this so people are aware because there has been speculation that they will use this as a test case to charge other protesters with felony conspiracy charges
The defendants could face up to six years in federal prison and/or $250,000 in fines. They are expected to appeal the verdict.
contrary to popular belief not everyone has an innate sense of internal gender or care to have one or seek a name for it, some people go their whole lives without questioning their occupation in one of two gender roles, but for some people, if pressed, they don’t feel that internal sense of ‘i am a woman’ or ‘i am a man’, and in that case i feel the switch over to transgender vs cisgender relies on active identification of a gender other than the one they were assigned. if someone’s like ‘idk dude I just work here’ then that’s valid
#i would describe my gender as not exactly ‘idk dude i just work here’ #more like…..when someone assumes you work somewhere that you don’t #but you know how to help them so you do it anyway #my gender is wearing a red shirt at a target
These are the best tags
A portion of people in the notes are like ‘but that makes you trans. That’s called being agender’ and another portion of people are going ‘this is how the majority of cis ppl feel and it’s NOT agender’ and personally I feel like both of them are missing the point here. Yes a lot of people identify as agender because of this feeling. Yes a lot of people with this same feeling still identify as cis. These are not mutually exclusive experiences and it doesn’t mean the agender people are secretly cis or the cis people are secretly agender. It just means they have very similar experiences of gender that they choose to conceptualize and label differently, and neither of them are mistaken or wrong to do so.
I think the aversion in our society to coming up w/ utilitarian answers to ethical questions (my favorite hobby) has caused us to cede way too much ground to the assholes of the world in the vein of "Evil will always triumph because good is dumb," as Dark Helmet put it. Like.
Laypeople (and also a concerning number of scientists) have often got the idea that unethical human experimentation is some sort of ultra-effective super science that would fix all the disease and discover all of the medicine and we only don't do it because it isn't nice (see: every science fiction show ever). No! Jumping straight from abstract theory to human trials is a terrible way to do science. It produces incoherent results and useless observations and nonsensical conclusions. We have pages and pages of historical precedent demonstrating this.
And lots of people have got the idea that totalitarianism is some sort of magic super-government that does all the government stuff really effectively abd efficiently and we only don't do it because it isn't nice. No!!!! "Let's put one idiot in charge and do whatever dumb shit they say" is the worst way to organize any project at all, let alone an economy and a political machine. Fascist regimes are models of corruption, waste, and inefficiency.
And so on
The biggest trick fascists pulled these past 80 years has been convincing people that they were hyper competent perfectionists who ran everything efficiently. Rather than the truth which is they killed every one who was competent (trade unionists, socialists) and then killed every who reported that they were in fact incompetent. (Journalist and newsroom persecutions were very common)

A rotten apple quickly infects its neighbor, and one bad apple can spoil the whole barrel.
I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.
He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense
Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.
My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.
Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.
He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM
I do think "literally zero evidence indicates that gatekeeping medical transition does anything to prevent regret, but the harm done by gatekeeping is extensively documented" is a much stronger argument than "regret isn't real" cause there's always going to be some anecdote that puts you in a weak-looking rhetorical position for the latter, but the former is pretty unassailable.
You should also just be free to make decisions you later regret. That's your right; its your body, and thus, your rules.
If you do end up regretting it.. i mean thats just life lol you're gonna regret shit sometimes. you'll live 🤷♀️ still your decision to make
This is what's so fucked up about "nothing that requires the labor of others is a human right".
The labor is already being done under capitalism. The laborers are already being underpaid under capitalism.
When you propose removing the greedy profiteers and paying the workers a reasonable wage, people call that "slavery" while they have no problem with the current system.
They're not even trying to make sense.
"People are not property!" - *loud cheering*
"This includes prisoners! They are not suddenly property of the state when they're convicted!" - *a little less cheering*
"And that includes children who are not their parents' property!" - *almost no cheering*
"What? I thought we said people aren't property?"
Climate change denial is one of the dumbest things to be ignorant about. Foreign affairs? Just don't read the papers. Racism? If you're in a rural community and have barely interacted with non-white people, makes sense. Sexism? Built into every culture and, again, makes more sense in rural areas.
But climate change? It feels impossible to ignore that. Unless you were born like a month ago, you feel it. You feel the summers getting hotter, the sunburns getting worse, the droughts coming early, the allergies hitting different, the bugs fading away. It's not a social issue. It's not in one place. Every person on earth is affected by this all the time, and people are saying it's not real???
Like Bro, it used to actually snow during the winter. Remember that?
i suggest we should do something about this
