Hate to break this to you. But let me introduce you to the favorite saying of every Centrist Democrat that gets elected president:
“It is time to heal and move on.”
They care more about peace than justice.
i’m reminded of something mlk jr wrote, on a related topic:
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice;
That’s a lot of people - they just want things to be quiet and easy for them, and if there’s injustice for others they’ll just have to live with it.
see the thing though is that “all of this” in the meme is very vague. it could mean a full-on cultural revolution, one where democrats and republicans alike do not exist anymore. I don’t think people are really wanting to go back to the status quo, not really. it’s obviously infinitely better than christofascism, but people want meaningful change. probably a big reason why Kamala Harris was not so popular, even though I voted for her
that ain’t peace, they just want to protect their acomplices.
Honestly, I’m surprised that anti-ICE guerrillas still didn’t start to appear over the US.
Wouldn’t anti ICE be MELT?
There has been resistance across the board, from restaurant owners to judges.
Maybe they have and they don’t want to advertise their existence
If such organization acted even once, it would be instantly on the news all over the world.
Don’t know if it’s an organized group or just a spur-of-the-moment angry mob, but there is this story: https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/ice-arrest-mother-video-massachusetts-daughter-b2747948.html
Maybe. Suppressing news of activist response is very much alive and well
Yeah, if you think the manhunt on Luigi Mangione was over the top, wait until someone takes a shot at an ICE agent ‘trying to protect the country from illegal immigrants’ or however Trump would frame it.
If anyone wanted to try it, they’d need impeccable opsec, because everyone in law enforcement will be looking for them.
History would suggest otherwise…

Nuremberg trials… here’s to hoping
Cofeveberg trials
ICE is going to be begging for the due process they’re denying to others.
