- Reposted by The Benj!"Abolish the Police and then what?" while infantile and often asked in bad faith, is at least, on some levels, a real question "Ablish ICE and then what?"

- Reposted by The Benj!An unfriendly reminder that no, #ICE is not arresting criminals because without due process, there are no criminals. Due process is the thing we use to determine whether someone is a criminal. Without due process, every ICE "arrest" is just a kidnapping.
- Reposted by The Benj!This is a great example of what Marx called "the vampire thirst for the living blood of labour."
- Reposted by The Benj!The most fantastic element of "Superman" (2025) remains that hard-hitting, fact-based journalism can expose a billionaire's crimes and lead immediately to his arrest.
- Reposted by The Benj!one thing that would be cool, when prominent creators turn out to be terrible people, would be if we didn't have to go through this performative dance of insisting that their work was never good in the first place.
- Reposted by The Benj!This took me fucking ages

- Reposted by The Benj!I genuinely have no idea how to convey this to the American people, but I think the biggest impediment to any kind of immigration reform is that people are convinced that "legal" and "illegal" are immutable, intrinsic categories instead of a rapidly-shifting arbitrary constellation of regulations.
- Reposted by The Benj!Netflix picked up a Pete Davidson "video podcast" which isn't really a podcast as it doesn't have an RSS audio portion. Hmm... This got me wondering about the deals.

- Reposted by The Benj!How many times in your life have you heard a member of Congress or someone on TV say “we can’t afford it” when talking about something small but very important? It’s been happening my entire life. We can’t afford it? They’re putting seven times the annual budget of the EPA into immigrant detention.

- Reposted by The Benj!The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll
- Reposted by The Benj!Epstein being the Forrest Gump of pedophile billionaires makes sense when you consider that he had enough money to do whatever he felt like, for decades without consequence, 24/7. *Every* billionaire could do the exact same thing if they felt like it. Each is a ticking time bomb.
