On this day in 1864, American troops murdered over 200 Cheyenne and Arapaho people living peacefully along Sand Creek in Colorado despite assuring the community days earlier that they would be safe. https://t.co/Hthss1beE0

@LongTimeHistory An officer meant to protect the public launches his car into a second floor, leaves a woman critically injured, then walks away with a court slip… this isn’t a crash story, it’s a system that believes accountability is for citizens, not its own. #DemsUnited

My close friend has been a comedian in California for 17 years. She said EVERYBODY knew Louis CK was sexually harassing and assaulting women. He was so powerful he just was shutting everyone up and blacklisting people at whim. He should be shunned from public life

@Lamplighter_UK People are putting themselves at risk by reporting, considering the conduct of the police. From breaching peoples data, to prosecuting victims of crime who complain about a poor police response.

@lovewins11011 People feel like victims because...they actually were victims. Most bystanders don't want to empathize with that, don't want to imagine "it could happen to them too", so a cheap and easy way out is to blame the victim for their failure to change their "mentality"

@Anne_Arbor Someone who helps/allows the main abuser to continue to abuse. Involve making excuses for the abuse, siding with the abuser, ignoring what's happening, or protecting a group or family instead of the victim. Even though they aren't the main abuser, they still hurt the victim.

A colonizer is always angry, because a colonizer is always guilty. A colonizer is always violent, because a colonizer is always afraid. A colonizer is always angry and afraid because a colonizer is never home. - Lately I started getting words for it, this colonizer

"One can speak of a whole history of ‘defensive colonialism’: a colonialism imagined by the colonists as a form of defence that extends all the way to the more recent invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan."

Horrible people just keep doing horrible shit and no one holds them accountable for it. What a horrible world we are living in.

The public-private partnership (PPP) is a euphemism for the worst form of corruption ever.

@AlboMP We live in a kakistocracy, just look at the absolute criminal scum running everyone's lives. Non-stop lies, gaslighting, hollowing out a once free and prosperous nation.

Wrong again. Until people realize that GOVERNMENT is not an altruistic institution but a criminal organization, nothing will ever change. The illusion is the system itself.

The overt criminality of the US government is in part a middle finger to Americans, telling us, “there’s nothing here worth saving. We hate you, and we’ll take everything we want from you, and there’s nothing you can do about it.” There. Is. Plenty. You. Can. Do. About. It.

As a blatant lie, this also reveals how policing is key tool for gentrification/displacement: NYPD's discriminatory policing works to justify rich white folks colonizing NYC as *progress* while expelling Black/Brown, immigrant, poor folks whose protest marks them as "out of here"
