@DemocracyMattersALot Nice F-ING vacation assholes.
After 6 months of this foolery, and cruelty and now super creepiness, I'm about ready to self deport to almost anywhere but here, my broken homeland.

Is it not fishy that Adam Schiff appeared on #LateNightwithStephenColbert right before CBS cancelled the show?

@barubary in the comments of her video, she clarifies what she means. You can literally see ICE BRANDED TRUCKS ON TOW BEDS.

Are you okay? Here. Since you hate black people so much and can’t be bothered to check my profile for multiple screenshots, here’s a white woman telling you exactly what she’s doing. I’ll post the direct link to her video since clearly, you’re having issues with comprehension.

@ErickaSimone I did check your profile, but all I saw was three screenshots (posted repeatedly). One is irrelevant (it's just a picture of some white person*), one seems to be the opposite of what you're saying (trucks being towed by ICE), and one is a definite maybe.

I'm eagerly awaiting the direct video links.

* Edit: Despite what Ericka says, the person in the video is not a woman. Their profile says "genderfluid" and (on Instagram) "pronouns: they/them".

@barubary @ErickaSimone hey Oriel. Shut up and believe the lady. Or. Just shut up. Either way, you’re not winning anything by playing the stupid troll.
@chris @barubary oh he’s salty and blocked me. Par for course for antiblack sociopaths who waited all day just to harass me. lmaoooo

@chris @ErickaSimone Uh.

"I’ll post the direct link to her video"
"OK, I'm waiting"
(1 hour passes)
"Just shut up, you stupid white Nazi-supporting troll"
???

(I know you didn't call me a white Nazi supporter, but she did. And ... now she's claiming I blocked her. Which I didn't, because I can see her calling me an "antiblack sociopath" (wtf?).)

@barubary @ErickaSimone do you support ICE?
@chris @ErickaSimone Hell no. They can all get fucked.
@barubary @ErickaSimone great. Then just believe the lady and go to bed. Bye.
@chris @ErickaSimone Go to bed? At 10am?!
@barubary @ErickaSimone maybe you’ll act less dumb if you get a little more shut eye.
@chris not sure what is going on here but if your signing on to whatever this is, it’s not a great look.
@lazarus7 what is not a great look?
@chris read that accounts replies with an clear mind if your uncertain.
As for me, I’ve unfollowed some folks and am off to bed.
@chris I read this again today with a rested mind and I think I made the correct decisions.
@barubary @ErickaSimone here's the direct video, it's just a lady walking down a sidewalk flashing a peace sign. i'd like to see this proven true, but this ain't it https://www.tiktok.com/@therabbitgemini/video/7519614720597429534
TikTok - Make Your Day

@ErickaSimone It's been a full day and you still haven't posted any links. I've been able to find one of them, though: https://www.tiktok.com/@therabbitgemini/video/7519614720597429534

Things I've learned so far:

  • The caption says "Was able to afford cali rent by reporting illegally parked ICE cars to the tow companies... They pay commission #fafo", but the video is just a person walking by a street.
  • Nothing in the video itself relates to ICE.
  • The hash tags include "#funny #meme", so I'm not 100% clear on whether the post is just a joke or "just a joke" for plausible deniability.
  • Even if we take everything in this post at face value, it doesn't confirm what you originally said, namely that an alliance of 20+ tow truck operators is actively following ICE vehicles around.
  • The person is not a "white woman". According to their profile, they're genderfluid (pronouns: they/them, as found on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therabbitgemini/).

Now that I know the screenshots are from TikTok, I'll look for the other videos later.

PS: You seem to have quietly deleted one of your posts where you falsely claimed I had blocked you. But the other one is still up: https://mastodon.social/@ErickaSimone/114861704437037334

TikTok - Make Your Day

@ErickaSimone Found it! The slideshow you got that screenshot from is https://www.tiktok.com/@gemgem526/photo/7526195999300177183.

"In the comments of her video, she clarifies what she means"? My sister in Christ, that video only has 4 comments (as seen in your screenshot) and none of them are by the uploader. (I've attached a screenshot below.)

The full description reads:

Here is two pictures of work trucks that are being towed by ice. The drivers of the vehicle were working and they decided to take them in because they’re criminals. You know criminals who work hard pay their taxes raise their kids and do good things for the community.. I mean that could be anybody that could be your neighbors or whatever and the only thing that’s different is their skin color and the fact that they’ll actually work. I know more white people in the south without jobs that live off the government than I do Hispanics. #fypシ゚viral🖤tiktok☆♡🦋myvideo #hispanicsatwork #hispanics #lazypeople #pickfirlds #tx #dallas #ididnotvoteforthis #trumpsucks

Which confirms what was apparent from your screenshot: These are some company's work trucks. ICE came, arrested the drivers, and had the trucks towed. This all happened in Dallas, TX, nowhere near Los Angeles. (I've attached the full pictures below as well.)

@ErickaSimone Let's count the direct lies you've told me:

  • "I'll post the direct link to her video" ­– You never posted a link (and it's not a "her").
  • "on the bed are ice work trucks" – Nope.
  • "You can literally see ICE BRANDED TRUCKS ON TOW BEDS" – No, you can't. And since when does ICE use a diagonal green stripe as branding? I can't quite make out the company name, but it clearly doesn't say ICE.
  • "in the comments of her video, she clarifies what she means" – There are no comments by her and there was no need to "clarify" anything; the video description is quite clear.
  • "he blocked me" – I never did.
  • From where I'm sitting, it looks like you jumped on TikTok, searched for something like "ice trucks towed", and posted screenshots from the first three videos you found without checking anything. Which is why these screenshots look so unrelated to your main story of "an alliance of 20+ tow truck operators in Los Angeles is actively following ICE vehicles around to immediately tow them".

    • The first video says it shows an ICE vehicle getting towed for illegally blocking access to St John's hospital. Does not seem unlikely, but you don't need a horde of ICE hunters for that to happen. (Also, it says Oxnard, not LA, but I'm not familiar with the geography there. Maybe it's around the corner?)
    • The second video doesn't actually show anything happening; it's just a caption saying someone got paid enough to pay rent for reporting illegally parked ICE vehicles. Funny, maybe true, but says nothing about a tow operator alliance following ICE around. (It also doesn't mention a location.) You don't know the video creator and didn't bother to check their profile, so you misgendered them. Repeatedly.
    • The third video (actually a two-picture slide show) is completely out in left field. It claims to show ICE towing some work vans after having arrested the drivers in Dallas, TX. There is no connection to Los Angeles or ICE vehicles being towed.

    When I pointed out the issues with the last video, you immediately jumped down my throat. You called me a Nazi, said I hated black people, said I had issues with comprehension (hah), and doubled down by just making shit up: The ICE branding (that doesn't exist), the video creator's "clarifying" comments (that don't exist), and me blocking you (never happened). Keep in mind, I never even questioned your original post. All I did was point out that one of your screenshots didn't support your story because it showed something unrelated. You could've simply said "oh yeah, I misread the description, my mistake" and stopped posting that picture.

    It seems you've decided to interpret any sort of questioning or criticism as a personal attack, then generalize from "attacking" you to hating all black people. Because clearly the only reason someone would not immediately agree with everything you say, no matter what, is because they hate black people. Yeah, right.
