This should not be happening anywhere, let alone in the U.S. This must stop.

@georgetakei

And who exactly will stop it?

@georgetakei enforced disappearance is a crime against humanity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enforced_disappearance
Enforced disappearance - Wikipedia

@georgetakei Reminds me of the Soviet era when people would vanish. The legal form at that time:

“10 лет без права переписки”
(“10 let bez prava perepiski”)
— “10 years without the right of correspondence.”

They were usually killed, the family unable to receive letters might hope that they were still alive.

How many of our disappeared are dead. Accidentally they will say. But we may never know. There is no way to find out.

@georgetakei at some point, we're going to find mass graves and/or disposals of bodies.

And people will say "that's not who we are" while not acknowledging that apparently we were.

@georgetakei The only thing that’s going to stop him is a national strike. No one is coming to save us. States will soon fold to him like Congress, the Extreme Court and the military already have. They’ll even let him drop nukes. TIME TO SHUT IT DOWN! NOW!!! Otherwise, it will only get worse.

An undated social media post from The New Yorker:
A director of an immigrant rights group said that his organization had received around 4,000 calls regarding disappearances since June 6th. "Some we just don't know where they're at," he said. "We keep getting reports that folks are missing."
