As Trump mobilizes the marines to quell an “insurrection” in LA, it’s essential to be clear about how the protests started and what actually happened.

    I’m not your boss, but if someone who worked for me said “Sorry boss, couldn’t make it in because I was kicking the shit out of some ICE nazis”, I’d consider that absence excused in a heartbeat.

      Don’t give a fuck off they do or don’t honestly. This shit has got to happen now or it’ll never stop. I’ll be damned if I let my daughter grow up in tyranny.

        As someone who grew up under tyranny, very much this. Fortunately I haven’t suffered the horrors unique to fascism so I can’t speak much to those, but the “keep your head down and watch out for government informants so the secret police doesn’t get you” talk is not a pleasant affair for either party.
