"How about this side-lit, heroic-perspective stunner that looks like a Rockwell poster made for selling war bonds?"

despite the photo; it's mind blowing how well the smear campaign is working despite it being a lilly white woman in the united states.

also, it bodes extremely poorly for the people with more melanin.

When ICE executes a random citizen, media goes out of their way to demonize them, when some far-right figure gets whacked, media goes out if their way to humanize them.

Doesn't that make her a bad ass as opposed to people who do nothing? Like an anti-ICE ninja?

I guess the counterpoint is "the evil woke left train terrorists". Perhaps I'm biased, but that seems less tractable
