  1. Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If a post is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Agreed, but they'll try to argue that violent protesters could kill thousands of innocent people, so killing them is the morally right thing to do. Here, they're arguing that Renee Good was a domestic terrorist that was using her vehicle as a weapon to try to kill the ICE guy, even though it's blatantly obvious that that's not what was happening in the slightest.

I'm just saying that they're escalating. They're hoping that people either stay home because they're afraid of being executed just for being outside, or retaliate and permit them to escalate further. And even an extreme retaliation will not eradicate the fascism, so I'm not sure what the right move is now that we're at this point.

They will escalate regardless of what we do. They already have been.

How's work?
They got us shooting women now
How's the pay?
Well there's a bonus if you're wanting in
How's the hours?
We shoot them in the daylight
And then we steal them away in the dark of the night
