Cops nailed an Australian reporter live on camera with a rubber bullet, in case you're wondering if Australians are going to want to visit the US anytime soon. (probably deliberately, they are not supposed to randomly fire into the crowd but pick a target who they deem a threat)

(Update: video plainly shows the nearest cop deciding to nail the reporter in the leg with "nonlethal" (less lethal) ammo, on camera)

If anyone is considering blaming those in LA for confronting ICE for the rise in violence, I strongly recommend reconsidering your position.

This *is* the plan. It has always been the plan to rachet up ICE violence until that are finally confronted.

Now is the time to support those on the front lines resisting the government troops who are, quite literally, rounding up folks and sending them to concentration camps*.

This paper is required reading. It runs 80 pages or so. It is not technical. It’s summarizes a good deal of reporting the likes of more perfect union has provided.

What becomes clear by page 40 is how deeply fucked our economy is because of a parasitic financial class.

This is the billionaire class. This is what they do. They have no idea that their network state cannot work. they only destroy.

The Rentier Economy, Vulture Capital, and Enshittification

  The Rentier Economy, Vulture Capital, and Enshittification   There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation. There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolize. There is a failure here that topples all our success.
