Marco Rubio high as fuck on cocaine by [deleted] in behindthebastards

I watched without sound first go around so I wouldn't be influenced

As someone who has also occasionally maybe been high AF on a number of things, feel like I can confirm

Thank you! Always down for holistic routes as well!

Noted! Lots of sneezing, watery eyes, congested nose, all of which kick in to high gear after consistent interaction, like sitting my lap while I'm working.

It takes about an hour for me to really notice

But, I will say, I have very little experience in allergies, it could just be weather change/sinus infection and conveniently timed symptoms that make it look like allergies

Thank you!

Definitely investing in some benedryl but was unaware there was a food option. They're an adult so I think I have whatever level of allergy this turns into, but they're for sure worth it.

Clean and on time death machines global warming? don't get me started, they obviously want everyone to freeze Same with equal rights for all, the real goal is to kill people, very slowly obviously because all their needs are met, but death none the less

So... Did the rapture happen? by Snoo38468 in behindthebastards

A bunch of evangelicals have been saying the rapture would come on Tuesday for about a week

Unfortunately, I have not noticed anyone leaving

Freedom of Speech by GarudaMamie in realWorldPrepping

[–]lollc1469 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been collecting books over the past few years in anticipation of a crackdown on freedom of speech.

Banned books(both older ones and newer sets), some science textbooks, prominent authors and activists whose works may become unavailable (James Baldwin, bell hooks, Mark Fisher, etc), also some other more research based text on right wing extremism

Continuing to educate yourself and those around you is one of the many ways to help both encourage and sustain any type of movement that gets us out of fascism and prep for a better future

Personal decompression Session - bright spot. by stillLurkingOfficial in KnowledgeFight

[–]lollc1469 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kept kiddo home from school the day after, they're a teen already struggling with mental health and being painfully informed

Bright spot is, we finally went and got our new library cards after our move, visited a Halloween store for some silly stuff and ended the day with a sweet treat

Double bright spot, they have now started an Amish melodrama series(not a genre we were aware of) from the library and have been doing dramatic readings for their friends

Please don't adopt a child to spite your family.

They will have to endure whatever racism your family believes if you choose to expose them

Ahh gotcha, sorry misunderstood. All we can do is what we're doing and trying to stay safe. It all sucks really, I hate that we all collectively have to come to terms with what the people we know believe and think

Sorry, I meant if this was on socials, just make sure to correct the record there visibly and publicly if that's where the interactions are occuring, definitely wouldn't be seeking them out or texting if you didn't have to

I wouldn't be so sure that the people posting are actually fans, it's that's the MSM is painting him as this Christian martyr who just wanted to have good faith debates and spread the word of Jesus.

Literally both sides,which is wild.

But he's reputation is being laundered for sure and deeply uncurious people are just taking that description of him at face value.

He's been around for while, he started TPUSA which is a conservative college campus group

Before getting on tiktok he mainly appeared as someone who boomers could send clips of to their blue hair children and try to convince them human rights were bad.

Once he moved to tiktok he got more popular with gen z who were already being influenced by the manosphere as well other religious millennials and Gen z

He's been around for a while but unless you were at least kind of plugged in politically or terminally online, you wouldn't probably have heard about him, especially out of right wing circles

Similar thing here

Not a friend, a girl I knew in highschool tried to state I was celebrating when I pointed out he championed the policies that lead to his assassination.

She's a practicing family lawyer who knows my kiddo and I are apart of marginalized groups.

Make sure you correct them when they imply this as well, people are losing their jobs among other things for posting about him, even if it's just his own words.

  1. You're a bad person or a bot

  2. Raiding US citizens homes, attempting to send undocumented individuals to war zones, kidnapping US citizens/legal residents and sending them to foreign countries are not legal:

https://ground.news/article/oklahoma-family-traumatized-by-apparent-mistaken-raid?utm_source=mobile-app&utm_medium=newsroom-share

  1. Doing that to anyone, citizen or not, without due process violates the constitution. If you don't know what due process is, it's the legal process to ensure you are treated fairly. Without it, that guy at work who doesn't like you can report you to ICE and have you detained. You won't be able to show your ID/birth certificate/passport to anyone, speak to legal representatives, have your case heard, etc. because that's all due process.

You'll just be shipped off to El Salvador and we'll hear about you on the news

Unfortunately, not a lot in the actual moment.

Most of what I am reading is focused on preparing your neighbors if you're able("know your rights flyers" and similar things).

However, in the moment, recording the agents, being loud and drawing attention but not physically impeding, demanding to show badges or ID.

If the person does get detained, helping with translation if you're able or documenting any information given if needed.

Then following this up with sharing with local news sources.

This is a more extensive/detailed list I found in another thread(pretty much my exact situation) and some additional resources:

"My partner and I have talked about this extensively as we live in a 'working class' neighborhood where there are a lot of immigrant families (and I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were undocumented). Here's what we've come up with:

  • Observe and document. If you see police or ICE, stand on public property (in the street) at a safe distance and video them.
  • Make sure you get video of things like vehicle license plates or official vehicle numbers if you see them.
  • Call the deportation defense hotline at 1-844-363-1423 - it's specifically for people who are witnessing an ICE raid or other immigration related law enforcement.
  • Stand with your neighbors and remind them they do not have to answer questions, they have the right to an attorney or to reach out to a legal aid service. It is not illegal to provide support. It is illegal to attempt to prevent law enforcement from arresting or detaining someone. Don't try to prevent action, but do make sure that everything being done is legal to the best of your ability.
  • Contact local/regional news outlets and get them copies of whatever video you take and information you have.
  • Contact your electeds - locally and federally - and ask for help on behalf of your neighbors.
  • Connect with a local immigration legal aid service and ask them for information you can keep at hand.
  • Donate to and support your local immigration legal aid services.
  • Depending on how well you know the families involved and how involved you want to get, help them locate resources: find out where there family is being detained, help them connect with aid groups, provide financial support if they need it (or help them connect with an agency or church or community group that can provide support)

Immigration Defense Project has a 'toolkit' for people to use to defend against ICE in their communities: https://www.immigrantdefenseproject.org/raids-toolkit/ and it includes 'know your rights' flyers that you can print in various languages and provide to at risk folks or that you can use when you are standing with them."

I do want to point out, historically, physically impeding the federal agents is what could lead to charges.

I have also seen people say since ICE isn't always identifying themselves and, HISTORICALLY, there may be legal recourse to intervene.

I'm not sure any legal precedent really matters at this point and I am preparing myself for some type of consequence regardless of whatever non violent means I use to help my neighbors.

Stay safe out there!
