You could search and replace a few words in Anne Frank's Diary and make it happen in Minneapolis today.

The new underground railroad. Keep safe all.

"In the United States of America".

The birthplace of freedom and democracy. The beacon of light and justice in the world. So strange that it is happening over there. Who could have seen this coming?

One could expect this to happen anywhere, but in the United States of America? No way.

[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Even the American left has had their national exceptionalism so deeply ingrained that they cant stop screaming "We're number 1!" while they are drowning.

Thats why they were the perfect mark. The idea that it could happen to them was so preposterous.

I really prefer when people write "/s" for sarcasm. With Poe's Law and all it is virtually impossible to distinguish sarcasm on the written internet.

[–] bryophile@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

I know, I usually do.

But with this I thought it was laid on thick enough so the people who read it as sarcasm read it as sarcasm and the people who don't deserve to live in confusion.

Why are they trying to destroy their country?

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was listening to an interview of a progressive in my country. And based from his observation, he mentioned many politicians just don't care. Like, really don't care.

There is a reason as to why politics is said to be where psychopaths coverge, because they want positions of power for power's sake. So that explains why many politicians really don't care.

[–] kunaltyagi@programming.dev 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

When you have majority of funding through corporations, why will the politicians care about people? If people start lobbying and competing for money, the politicians will start caring

[–] winkerjadams@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Legal bribery aka lobbying needs to be taken out of politics. Money shouldn't be involved but it is unfortunately. Even the most 'sacred' position is now head by a literal businessman

[–] kunaltyagi@programming.dev 1 points 17 hours ago

Citizen United or something like that happened in US

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

They don't care, they'll just say whomever they deported were MS13 members engaging in "violent pedophilia".

write it on a paper? who doesn't remember single address without writing it down?

it is not really the point of the message, but it kinda is...

[–] Tryenjer@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

If memory weren't so tattered, people wouldn't be repeating history, though.

My wife. She's hopeless at remembering an address. She can remember every time I forgot to refill the toilet paper though.

If that's NOT another reason to study and read socialist theory, I DON'T know what is. Seriously! https://redsails.org/

Good website, thanks for sharing

Time to organize

[–] ChillPenguin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

And they're after our boundary waters too. I'm so fucking sick of them.

Like the other - date on this? Would add context.

This is what your grandparents fought and died for to prevent from ever happening again.

[–] uienia@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

It was pretty much still happening in the South while those grandparents were busy fighting it elsewhere. And it continued to happen in the US south for decades after WWII.

What the actual fuck. This is straight from Anne Frank's diary, just change their coats.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 80 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Except in the case of Bovino where you don't even have to change the fucking coat 🤦

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago

Looks like a kid trying on daddy's coat

Sooner they get this national shutdown done, the easier it is.

[–] GreenTara@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

May they all be free from this soon

Still waiting for US citizens to organize a nationwide strike that doesn’t end until ICE terror ends. What’s it gonna take?

[–] Jyek@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 days ago (2 children)

The problem is that most of us that would protest are not in a financial position to do so. If I participate in a work strike, I won't make the money I need to pay my bills, I'll be evicted, I'll go hungry, I won't be able to feed the family or the pets I will go destitute long before actual change happens. I'm not just making sacrifices, I am making that decision for my whole family. And that's just the surface level changes. I cannot afford to leave where I am currently. I believe that is all by design and I am not even close to the minority situation.

The system is rigged against this. The majority are 2 weeks away from lights out or kicked out.

Actually heard from a colleague there that he was actively doing just that, at least a few weeks ago. Complete with the cloak and dagger about coordinating it offline and avoiding active patrols and protests that would similarly draw too much attention.

Yes, awfully 1930s German scenario that happened there.

When you vote in racist people, racist things will happen.
