Keep speaking Mary Katherine. Now is not the time for those with a voice to stay silent. This is as abhorrent as trump hanging Ukraine out to dry then basically declaring himself king. Trump has enabled the despoliation of whatever civility we once thought we had left. Those with a voice have got to now get persistent.
I am Australian and there is something so deeply terrifying and upsetting watching this all happen in real time. And then to watch our own conservatives make talking points of the exact same things - disrespect and hatred of First Nations peooles, baying for deportations, going after the Trans community. I thought we had more time here. We do not. It's time to fight. But today I am allowing myself to be just very very sad.
All this. Thanks for courage to speak the truth. I’ve been holding space with the people who need it most. We need to speak up and out that this is not okay.
This is horrifying on many levels. I have believed for years that even Hate speech (not just hateful actions) is not free speech or at least should not be. I follow Frame Lab on substack which is a result of George Lakoff’s work over decades. This article needs to be spread around. https://george-lakoff.com/2017/09/08/why-hate-speech-is-not-free-speech/
I'm saddened with the news on daily basis. Yet I know the return of Jesus is coming. Amy Hawk is author who left the evangelical group and tells her story. She's a warrior.
If ever something was perfectly written - it is surely this!
This on top of joining forces with Putin against Ukraine, I’m just so heartbroken. I want to find hope somewhere but I don’t know where to find it.
I personally feel powerless. It makes my heart hurt.
They have a cruelty fetish. That’s their kink. Just looking at Trump, Musk, Miller et al, you can smell their sadism.

Last night's post trump says long live the king. He thinks he's king. Wow!

And to think Instagram (Zuckerberg) would not remove this post is complicity ,Shame on all who think this is acceptable..
The evil unleashed by the cruel acts of evil men is so disheartening.

Well said MK. It is a very frightening time.
I completely agree with your point, MK! FWIW, is that really someone being deported or is it someone preparing shackles?
I love this, couldn't have said it any better!
