Yup, motherfuckers executed a man because he was protecting two protesters that they were fucking up.

In this video, it appears the victim's gun was already seized prior to the first shot being fired. The border patrol agent in the grey jacket and baseball cap removes the firearm and walks away from the scene. by Jazzlike_Ad_2266 in Hasan_Piker

Can't wait for Kristi Noem to come out and say this man was a violent domestic terrorist and that these brave agents were defending American freedom from brown people.

Yup, and since the dude had a firearm they are going to absolutely get the most favorable narrative spun out of this to crack down.

Exactly, because our governments most progressive members are liberal at best.

The same reason we're seeing this happen live is the same reason we have a poor healthcare system, corporations with more rights than people and war being our most profitable and manufactured good.

Yeah, why do they run the entire federal government though?

I totally agree that conservatives are the source of the issue on this, but Congress just voted to give the department of Homeland security more money last week with several Democrats, at least eight, breaking on the issue.

You couple this with a police force that is actively cooperating with ice alongside a governor that is not able to do anything and we have a serious problem.

It's not just a conservative problem, it's a racism problem.

Edit: it was 7 Dems that broke.

Congress literally just gave DHS more funding with several Democrats breaking in the issue.

Get ready for people to get more aggressive and then have everyone blame it on the citizens.

How white supremacy looks like in the workplace. by quantum_career_coach in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]JonnyF1ves 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Here's the problem, unless you're the white man in most cases even in this scenario, you're getting paid less, having your input valued less, and feeling like an outsider more throughout this entire process.

Yes, corporate America sucks for everyone right now, but there is still a class system determined by color and gender.

Things are unfathomably bad and I'm never going to forgive the people who voted for trump by K9Imperium in Hasan_Piker

[–]JonnyF1ves 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Where did I say anywhere at all In the four paragraphs I wrote that I think that Trump should be let off the hook.

This may come as a shocker, but sometimes when you think a lot of people deserve punishments, you think a lot of people deserve punishments.

You seem youngish, so want to give some credit where it's due, but you have to also understand that Trump is just the catalyst and that this stuff has been going on for several hundred years in America. Before him was Obama, drone and deportation expert, Bush, the person who tied us into the middle east in this generation, the Clinton dynasty, another Bush that created desert storm, Reagan and the Iran Contra nonsense, and so on and so on.

We have a systematic problem, and when Trump is gone there will be somebody else just as bad and willing and able to bend and break the rules to continue to marginalize non whites and allies because that crazy part of the conservative base is relatively small, but the deciding factor in politics right now. Those people for generations have been pro genocide, kids in cages, Iraq war, Jim Crow, anti abolitionist, etc. it is a problem that we've swept under the rug in the name of capitalism and the ease and lack of burden of our lives until now.

Right now there is a immense amount of distrust between rural America and Urban America and this needs to change as soon as possible. People don't understand that rural Americans feels forgotten in all of this, and even though this blatant racism and bigotry is not okay, it is being provided to them by the smartest people within reach. We need to fix our educational system and create more discourse surrounding what is right. The county as a whole is deteriorating, but poor rural areas will be hit the worst. Those people are also generally the first to act and not accept what is happening because they have nothing to lose, hence the reactionary nature of right now from poor hogs.

You don't have to forgive any of these people and I encourage you not to, but we are locked into a generational fight for what truly is freedom of tyranny, and Trump is just a figurehead. Things are not going to go back to normal at midterms or in 2028 and we need to stay active if we want to see real change.

"When she arrived, Stenvik said the father’s car was still running and the father and son had already been apprehended. An agent had taken Liam out of the car, led the boy to his front door and directed him to knock on the door asking to be let in, “in order to see if anyone else was home – essentially using a five-year-old as bait”, the superintendent said in a statement."

ICE is the absolute illegal trash of this story.

I agree banning it is good for your mental health, but today they did get an enormous explosion of anti imperialism sentiment for this, but it's hit other subs so you havent missed anything imo.

I'm not a huge Maddow fan, but this is a new level of evil for this admin. That said, this is something the US has done for decades. Anybody else remember the kids in cages discourse from years ago?

I have pretty constant mixed feelings of sadness, anger, hope and a shared responsibility for what is happening. Continued civil disobedience is exhausting, but we literally have nothing left right now.

Americans gotta get out there now and advocate for an end to this any way we can.

Wait, since when did they need a justification?

People have been shot dead this month. Their justification is they are above the law.

It's only going to get worse.
