    America is such a fucking joke it’s no longer funny. I wish we could isolate the rest of the world from your madness but unfortunately we can’t.

      Yeah, keeping our shit to ourselves has never really been our strong suit.

      Sorry :(

        As a Middle Easterner, I genuinely feel sorry for the non maga Americans, but unfortunately that’s your fight to fight.

        Good luck.

          And fight we do. I’ve considered myself an activist for almost 30 years now. I thought fighting for marriage equality was gonna be hard. I’m really not looking forward to this.

            Unleash the devastating power of the Kumbaya warchant on your little stroll to the streets!
            The regime will crumble before your eyes.

            Depending on where you live in the world America has been pretty bad for a pretty long time. But I agree under this new technofascist oligarchy it will become a nightmare

      As a Native American this attitude would be a lot more understandable and palatable if America wasn’t colonized…

        I totally understand your sentiment. Undoubtedly the USA is built on stolen land, much like Israel.

          All of history is one people taking over another peoples land. I’m not saying its right, but in virtually any part of the world there is a history of some invader or colonizer coming in and displacing or swallowing up the existing people, probably multiple times, down through prehistory as well.

        These immigration raids and terror tactics are terrible on their own, but it’s especially absurd when Native Americans get caught up in it, and it just fully exposes how disingenuous and transparently racist the whole effort is. So I’m sorry that your peoples have to suffer even more because of this racist mindset.

        From a January article:

        ”If you can’t say, ‘we’ve been here for time immemorial,’ then you’re an immigrant. You’re not from here, so who are you to classify our Indigenous people? These lands have been a melting pot for many ethnicities,” Hatathlie [a Native Arizona state Senator] said.

        I heard another more recent example of a car full of Native Americans being pulled over, aggressively questioned, and asked for their papers, but I can’t seem to find it. It’s utterly shameful how we treat people.

            The terror inflicted upon Native American peoples has been complete, it seems. AIM is a good example of what happens when you step out of line with the controlled opposition.
