I wonder why they're being given paper and drawing instruments in the first place?

Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.

You’d think stealing children’s drawings would result in a “are we the baddies” come to Jesus moment for these people, but at this point it’s clear these monsters have no souls.
I think most people would have that moment somewhere before they started locking children into prison for the crime of existing in the wrong place.
Where they feed them food with bugs and leave 1-year olds without care or reasonable conditions, yep.
These bastards signed up specifically to oppress brown people. There's no hope for them.
True. Lots of what should be reflective moments along the way. Can’t reflect when you have shit for brains, I guess
Gestapo steals teens diary documenting abuses
Abusers never seek to change or repair, only to cover up their offenses. It's well past time to stop the crimes against humanity
Not “only to cover up their offenses“ but, most importantly, to continue them.
Well that's gotta be near the top of the list of activities that will immediately put you on the "we're the baddies" list.
And what are you gonna do about it?
- Your mom
- Your dad
- Any siblings you have that are over 18
pfft-- have fun with that, lol
We certainly will.
Me and the other guy are gonna have a blast
If you worked for GEO or CoreCivic, it should be a mark worse than a criminal record getting another job.
Peaceful protest is no longer valid in stopping ICE.
Trust me bro! Just keep boycotting and singing songs and dancing in the streets bro! It's working bro!
Fuck these idiots who keep saying shit like this. IT. IS. NOT. WORKING. When are they gonna finally fucking realize that if we continue to show our back, this administration is going to keep stabbing it.
Every successful political resistance includes a healthy protest movement. It is necessary.
- stop ignoring history of social change
- pay attention to all the other important aspects of resistance that are building momentum and being set up
- don't be a self-saboteur and plunge into pointless violence
- apply pressure, including violence, in a disciplined and strategic manner
- whining, whinging, and demanding bad strategy and worse tactics are a win for the opposition
- everyone can contribute to resistance in many ways
- a coordinated front is necessary, but also mass noncompliance and microresistance
- get to work yourself in more constructive ways
May I add that while the whole world is dealing with a surge in authoritarian bullshit, the particular case of the USA is going to require much more than just a shift in the political roster. The problem is deeply cultural, as evidenced by the hollywood style approach of so many armchair tacticians. Start there, and work on you and yours while also taking direct action.
Preach, brother
What are you doing that's more effective so we can emulate it? Legit question, I'll do more if I know what it is that needs doing and is realistically doable (hence asking what you are personally doing about it)
How they don’t swallow their own shotguns is beyond me
Because they think swallowing rods is gay.
