"Mass deportation cannot happen without mass collateral damage. Good’s death was not a freak accident. It was the foreseeable outcome of a system that treats visibility as provocation and accountability as an obstacle."

"Good was the ninth person shot—and the second killed—by ICE since September. All of them were shot while in their vehicles. In every case, ICE claimed that the officers were acting in self-defense.
So what happened in Minneapolis yesterday was not a tragic accident. It was part of a pattern. A policy. A worldview."

"I’m sure that in 2028 Democrats will spend most of their time talking about Kitchen Table Issues and expanding health insurance. But honestly, I’m not sure how much any of that matters if the fascists who did this to America do not face whatever legal accountability is possible."

"The man who pulled the trigger had been provoked, they said. It was not the killer who was a terrorist. It was the mom who had just dropped off one of her six-year-old at school.
These individual lies are part of the logic of death squads. A murderer can go free because the government controls the story. And then the next murder is all the easier. And suddenly this is normal & people simply disappear."
~ Timothy Snyder
