Here’s an idea: Stop acting like the Gestapo.

@georgetakei Maybe don't come for people for having opinions unpopular with the ruling regime with the intent of sending them to a concentration camp, arriving in unmarked vehicles, in black uniforms and masks without means to identify prevent those comitting crimes on behalf of the regime from being held responsible.

When this hell is over, there needs to be no mending of fences, no bringing people back into the fold who have actively, gleefully terrorised others. If you comitted a crime for ICE, you should be prosecuted and the entire agency disbanded with everyone involved ruled ineligable for future government and law enforcement work.

The mistake we made in Reconstruction was when Johnson decided to let them all off the hook. That festering pus is the root of today's MAGA

@dingodog19 @Rycochet @georgetakei more and more people are saying this. Don't let anyone try and shame you into giving them amnesty.

@fluffykittycat @dingodog19 @Rycochet @georgetakei If you were looking for a job that lets you terrorize and kidnap people then you aren't magically a better person when that job gets taken away. Now, we just need to figure out how we can take that job away.

@dingodog19 @georgetakei A lot of people being pushed towards maga via conspiracy vame about as a result of nobody responsible for the global financial crash of 2008 being held responsible. The people who got off continued as they were, harnessing that rage and funding right wing candidates to undo what few regulations stopped them from repeating the feat, leading to the tea party then Trump to completely obliterate any hope of regulation. This needs to stop, no more reconciliation eith people who openly plan to use olive branches as a shiv.
