  • I haven’t been on this app in a while, but I know a Black man, Keith Porter, was murdered by ICE on New Year’s Eve (Rest in Power) in Cali. Just one of the countless Black people who’ve been murdered by ICE and other agents of the state.

    I log back into this app and see the conversations around the white woman, Renee Good, who was just recently killed. And I can’t help but notice the stark difference in circulation of news and boosting of stories between both of them across this app…

    Shit has BEEN happening to Black people across administrations and is currently happening to Black people under this administration, and is met by crickets. Yet when it starts touching white people, I see real anger start being felt from the gen pop followed by amplification and co-opting of Black terms and memorialization… I stg it takes everything in me to give af about yall.

  • authoritarianism is such a useless and meaningless word. what the fuck do you mean the "US's slide to authoritarianism" do you not consider the pillage of the world, the countless coups and color revolutions sponsored by the us, and the overall suppression of revolution "authoritarian" because it meant you in the core were getting more benefits than you are now?
