The original Red Scare in the U.S. was as much about destroying Black radicals & controlling Jewish dissidents as it was about the Soviet Union. I have read so much about the history.

what a world we live in, where BMW can force drivers to watch a Spider Man commercial, but can't force drivers to use turn signals

"The process is the punishment" is said a lot in the criminal legal world.

I keep telling people this. The point of these ridiculous attempts at prosecution is not entirely to convict people, it is exactly to cripple them with legal fees at the very least. Smear them enough to make the rest of their lives difficult and to discourage more dissent and enforce their power.

The mental anguish is incalculable. You will incur levels of debt not previously imagined. Often friends and family will pull away from you NOT get closer. It's TERRIBLE.

It really really really bugs me how many people simply do not understand what it means when the government tries to convict you even IF THEY FAIL TO DO IT. Do you know how many thousands of dollars in legal fees it costs? You will most likely lose your job. You might lose your home.

It’s wild to me that every large-jet ICE charter but Omni refused to do these long-range deportations for damn near a decade, and now all of them are doing them inside of a week.

Elon Musk is planning to spend at least $100 million to help Republicans in this year’s midterms. That’s just 0.014 percent of his current $702 billion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

Believe it or not we have addressed this! Here you go: single gar = gar multiple gars, same species = garrison multiple gars, different species = garmada

Everyone involved in bringing these bogus prosecutions must face criminal charges, from the AG down to the line prosecutors at DOJ. If there are no penalties for this behavior, they will never stop.

One of my Crank Theories of Everything, at least of Everything in the Recent Past, is that we are dealing (badly) with COVID trauma we’d mostly prefer to pretend never happened.

JK Rowling funding her trans exterminationist campaigns by selling children's books to liberals 🤝 the NYT funding their trans exterminationist campaigns by selling puzzle games and recipes to liberals (and also for both, cis people will get really upset at trans people asking them not to)

NEW FROM ME: A frenzy of cruel and unusual ICE flights over the last few days suggests the Trump admin is ratcheting up its ethnic cleansing campaign. And it may be increasingly desperate to find willing collaborators. My breakdown: gillianbrockell.com/frenzy-of-cr...

What DOES actually help "the authentic hands-on workers on the ground" is cutting the identity politics bullshit about "who 'counts' a real farmer?" and getting a grip on how agriculture actually works. Drop the romance. Drop the "but who's real?" theater. Follow the money & decisionmaking power.
