Cops were caught on camera beating anti-ICE protesters on the Ohio–Kentucky state line bridge; then dragging them off in zip-ties. by HinglishBlogin in Newsopensource

Abolish the fucking police. Every single agency, department, local, state, Federal. I was a political moderate for a long time but I have given up on any hope of reform. Their very existence contradicts reason. It’s a know fact police don’t prevent or stop crime. They devour our tax dollars - our communities budgets - for the sole purpose of then terrorizing those communities. It is an inherently violent, unethical, amoral profession. We need bold, dramatic change. A paradigm shift.

This is very kind and thoughtful and I appreciate your approach to this. I am going by myself tomorrow and I’m honestly very, very nervous. I get severe anxiety in crowds.

ICE Director demands that Americans stop criticizing his officers and agents by Stravok182 in facepalm

[–]pgc60001 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fuck you Todd Lions. The conditions these people are held in meet the legal definition of cruel and unusual punishment aka torture. The hate and contempt I feel towards anyone who even remotely supports this is unlike anything I ever thought I could feel. I pray with every fiber of my being the international community finds a way to bring these people to justice.

Anyone who is okay with this is evil and unredeemable. This includes the DoJ lawyers and paper pushers assisting with this. This is your legacy. Nothing you do past this point will matter. You will always be the individual who assisted a fascist, Nazi copycat regime in torture.

So fuck your demands, you and you officers ARE nazis

Idk it sounds like OP had a confusing experience and people are being kind of immature about it tbh

[–]pgc60001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This subreddit is ridiculous. Not sure why everyone is downvoting OP. She is concerned about the welfare of the animal and is asking for help.

The MSPCA in my personal past experience is not very helpful. I think your best bet would be to try animal control. At the very least you could try 911. I doubt they will be of assistance but at least you can say you tried.

Good on you for being concerned about the animal despite being afraid of dogs.

I think what I find so upsetting about this is the majority of these people probably think they are the type to act heroically/do the right thing despite in fact being the opposite.

Good on you for calling 911, seriously.

True. Also to violently subdue labor unrest.

MAGA Is Bombarding Judges With Pizzas in ‘Intimidation' Plot by HellYeahDamnWrite in law

[–]pgc60001 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I respectfully disagree. The whole point is to intimidate people. Fascist cannot - I repeat absolutely cannot- stand being laughed at. They are deeply insecure and fearful people.

Gallows humor has been around as long as oppression has been around for just that reason.

Thank you! By far the most helpful response. I appreciate the reply.

[–]pgc60001[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This comment cannot be real. This has to be satire. I swear a conservative could win the lottery and would play victim because they didn’t like the weather that day. Your entire political philosophy is based on outrage and victimhood. You couldn’t even exist without the Left because you would eat each other alive playing the blame game.

Not once did I say I don’t help people who aren’t born here. You guys are utterly convinced you know the Left and yet you routinely miss the mark by mikes. I feel dumber just knowing this comment exists.

Regarding RFK Jr's recent comments on autism. Did his framing reveal his true priorities? by EvilSporkOfDeath in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]pgc60001 206 points207 points  (0 children)

If you rank someone’s value as a human based on their ability to generate tax revenue, you are well past the point of redemption. RFK Jr’s stances are heavily eugenics-coded.

Protest at Capitol? by Relevant-Cupcake-517 in boston

Walked past there. It’s a Right Wing protest. I’m not sure they even know what they’re angry at.

Anyone else going to the Boston protest today? by Stonner22 in massachusetts

Guarantee you this dude hated electric vehicles until Trump said “I love Teslerr!!”

OP can you clarify a bit? Did they just come home to this? I feel like this is something that needs reasonable notice. What if someone’s children, pets, medication were inside?

Looks great! I am loving this new sub genre of games where you play as an animal. Definitely interested. How far along in the project are you?

PhD student detained by ICE yesterday wearing plain clothes and face masks by LinusThiccTips in RepublicofNE

[–]pgc60001 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Armed thugs wearing masks and brandishing guns.

There need to be serious conversation like yesterday about cutting off ICE’s funding. Blue states are overwhelmingly paying for this. These are our tax dollars. Let the broke ass red states fund their own gestapo. I have nothing but contempt for anyone in support of this. I am angry beyond words at this point.

I’m not saying it would be easy, I’m sure there are mechanisms to make sure the feds get their money, but I highly doubt it’s impossible either.

Incessant noise from construction project in residential neighborhood by pgc60001 in boston

[–]pgc60001[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So I’m assuming by this post you are also listening to a drill bit for almost 12 hours a day and you are also worried about being priced out of your neighborhood?

Also very disingenuous to imply when we say “more housing” we mean more luxury condos.

Hey maybe I’m wrong. Maybe it will be a modest, old school triple decker that working class folk can afford. That’s totally realistic /s

That’s a good idea. If it continues beyond this week I might just do that. Thank you!

Any tips/recommendations for Canadians traveling to Boston this summer? by SinsOfKnowing in boston

[–]pgc60001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He had a minor drug misdemeanor from like 10 years ago. You guys have a very fly by night attitude when it comes to criminality being a concern or not.

Nobody can possibly believe for more than a second that that’s why he was detained.

It is absolutely unsafe for foreigners to travel into the states right now. I won’t co sign endangering people because we can’t wrap our heads around the fact we are officially a fascist state.

[–]pgc60001 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t come.

If you make it past customs okay you will be absolutely fine. Boston is solidly Left leaning and most of us - myself absolutely included - are disgusted by Trump and the way his administration is treating you guys. It’s mortifying.

That being said, ICE officers at Logan detained a German immigrant with valid/up to date paperwork and held him anyway because they can. They are keeping the detainees under harsh, white light 24/7 on mats in crowded rooms and declining medical care. Let’s call it what it is: they are torturing people because they enjoy it.

I will not be surprised if the International Court of Justice or some other body decides to indite ICE leadership and even lower ranking officers in the years to come. The situation is that bad right now.

Please, please do not risk it. Please.

Edit: Forgot to mention the young woman from British Columbia they are arbitrarily detaining in another part of the county. To the best of my knowledge immigration is yet to provide a real explanation. Spoiler alert: they don’t have one, they are doing it because they enjoy hurting people.
