Not just the oppositon party but some voters too! Acting like an abused partner, taking the scraps from the table and calling it a win and coddling our dogshit representatives while children get kidnapped (and worse) and they shoot random people in the street. Stand up for your neighbors man.
U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

MN > ICE
This is really excellent, glad to see you given the space to go big with this @jamellebouie.net www.nytimes.com/video/opinio...
Minneapolis says no to ICE.
In theory, it opens the door for more folks to participate in local patrols, neighborhood activism, protests etc. right? Its not "dont leave your house" its dont work, dont shop, dont go to school. Maybe its semantics but imo there is room for nuance there that could* make it a valuable movement
Here's the thing: today sucks. Yesterday sucked. Tomorrow is going to suck. They think that if they do this for another little while, everyone will calm down and get used to it. And the problem for them is, this country has no chill whatsoever. They've already lost; they just don't know yet.
I am not sure this matches the vibes in MN tbh.
DFL is kind of in shambles. Everyone knows it including GOP. The fraud story unfortunately worked. Walz is not as popular in MN post 2024 VP run as he was prior. Lot of voices on the left have been calling for him to halt his run
Rural America is in shambles. And cars have played a large role in this.
Basic shopping needs are often not met anymore, you must drive to your nearest walmart. Main street is dead.
It's hard to declare a war on something that lost everything decades ago we're here for ya when this becomes obvious
What are you talking about lmao. Local newsrooms and journalists have been drawing attention to this issue for years
The past year has been terrifying. Really, the past two—I lost a lot of sleep in 2024 over the promises of the Trump campaign, promises they immediately sought to make good on. But at the end of the first year of his would-be dictatorship, I am calling it: we are going to win.
Trump did the thing, everyone knows he did the thing, and he's got an entire political party and associated media apparatus trying to cover up his clear involvement in the thing. One of the sickest, most sordid chapters in an especially sick and sordid period of modern American history.
I Want You to Understand Chicago Politics Chicago 2025-11-08 I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago. On September 19th, Reverend David Black, lead pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying outside the ICE detention center in Broadview when a DHS agent shot him in the head with pepper balls. Pepper balls are never supposed to be fired at the head because they can seriously injure, or even kill. “We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof,” Black recalled. He is not the only member of the clergy ICE has assaulted. Methodist pastor Hannah Kardon was violently arrested on October 17th, and Baptist pastor Michael Woolf was shot with pepper balls on November 1st. Understand what it is to sleep in Chicago. On the night of September 30th, federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter to execute a raid on an apartment building on the South Sho…
Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

For the record, Melissa's main targets of Jamaica, Haiti, Cuba, and the Bahamas account for, respectively, 0.016%, 0.0089%, 0.064%, and 0.0038% of the global annual total of CO2 emissions.
The United States—right now, this very moment—is putting individuals in ICE detention, revoking and denying visas, and canceling billions in grant dollars specifically because of the viewpoints they express
Why does this happen so frequently in the US and not in other industrialized countries? I guess we can never know.
the republican party is a criminal conspiracy against the american republic
Do everyday experiences evoke similar emotional responses for you? I ask because they do not for me but music and movies do. It is unfortunate 😔
Do movies give you the same feels or just music

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.
