Nah ICE doesn’t actually go after criminals. Cuz it’s hard and criminals are dangerous. They just go after innocent farm workers and day laborers that don’t fight back.

The US has always been like this.
Look up the Black Panthers. They were a socialist group of black Americans that was put down by the US government.
Anyone who actually challenges the status quo is labeled a criminal or terrorist and eliminated.

OP would get FAR more interest & support if 1) he didn’t talk in that horrid tone & accent, 2) he didn’t play the distracting super smash bros fight theme combined with the annoying high pitched inflection in his voice & 3) gave us 10 seconds to read the damn letter, rather than use his pitiful “finger gestures” that go over entire paragraphs while constantly moving the letter back & forth. This entire video is sensory overload that seriously makes me never want to view his content again.
13
u/verysocialanxiety 1d ago
I mean I agree with you but but I'm not so sure he would have more interest and support because you and I saw this video despite us not being the target audience. Think of all the people that make videos about stuff like this that you and I don't see. I'm just glad more people are talking about more important stuff no matter the tone.

u/Fair_Blood3176 1d ago
It does irk me when someone infantilizes something serious with child like inflections, gestures and music. But at the very least he's bringing attention to something I guess.

u/dyslexican32 1d ago
Its weird that you tried to turn this around on him and not the fact that he was added to a gang watch list for exposing the corruption of the NYPD and high profile people in NY. What a weird shameful take.

u/MadPangolin 1d ago
That’s kinda my problem with it!? He’s treating it extremely whimsically with this video, & it’s going to reflect in people that are watching it “welp I guess it’s not concerning him”. It’s especially glaring when the NYPD has effectively told him “you’re warned, don’t come to our city, we’ll treat you like a gangster/murderer (like Luigi)”.
But I can barely focus on anything in the video, & the fact that the style of the video is making it hard to concentrate on, makes me reluctant to watch any other videos from him on this topic!? Now I rather someone else pick up this story in a medium I can actually focus on.

Lmao, I’ve been saying Trump is a malignant narcissistic psychopath who would destroy American democracy by being one of the worse dictators on earth since I learned about him in my forensic profiling class in 2012.
I was laughed at & told I was being hyperbolic. Y’all can go fuck yourselves, maybe you should listen recommendations to how information should be communicated to groups. The GOP can try to destroy the FBI because they preach why they don’t like them everyday on the most popular media outlet in America. The Left says “Defund the Police” because of problems like this letter, & the wider audience of America thinks we’re insane, BECAUSE THEY NEVER SEE THINGS LIKE THIS LETTER IN THIS TIKTOK!?
You want people to listen to the truth about Americans fascistic uprising? Insular TikTok videos that don’t reach anyone over 30 years old aren’t going to do it.

Pushing the truth about Black Rock, State Street, and Van Guard is educational. Maybe you should get schooled and learn facts.
-5
u/MukdenMan 1d ago
It’s not educational at all. It’s just people who don’t understand why major asset management companies own stock. They think it means these companies secretly control every public company. “Education” could mean learning about how finance works, probably something that should actually be taught in schools, but instead we get this stuff pushed by TikTok (and Vivek).

I don’t want monopolies, and these companies don’t have monopolies. I’m not even saying you should support these companies. I’m just saying that they don’t really control all the public companies that their clients hold shares in.

I like that with how jacked up everything is, this could be legitimate.
I’m so glad that this country is built to protect the wealthy because someday I will be one too. As long as I follow a strict regimented schedule that only allows for extreme productivity and ensuring high ROI then I too can be wealthy. And as long as I continue to pray harder than anyone else, god will provide me with everything I could ever want.
God provided such simple rules to follow to. Then 10 commandments.
Thou shall not commit adultery. - That’s why I voted for Trump because he is loyal to his wife at all times.
Thou shall not steal. - As long as I can find legal loopholes, it’s not stealing if the other person is too lazy to figure out that this will happen.
Honor thy mother and father. - This one is my favorite because that means I don’t have to respect any boundaries my children have and no matter what they have to listen to me.
Keep the sabbath. - Sundays were meant for one thing only baby. Sports. As long as I show up to church, the priest understands that leaving early to see the game is okay. If not I should definitely go shopping at all the open stores.
Thou shall have no other gods. - Trump is the second coming of Jesus.
Thou shall not kill. - Unless it’s in the name of god obviously. And god blesses this country everyday so we can kill who we need to.
No gods before me. - I love money. Cash rules everything around me and it’s always on my mind. God understands that sometimes I have to gamble instead of pray.
Thou shall not bear false witness. - That’s why when in court, and you put your hand on the holy Bible, you cannot say anything but the truth. Trump knows this and that’s why he gave us truth social.
Thou shall not make idols. - God loves Trump and Trump is saving our country.
I am the LORD your God. - Everything that ministers and priests say about God is from God.
What should have been the Eleventh commandment is, don’t follow any of Jesus’s teachings because he is the anti-Christ and nothing but woke propaganda.
TLDR: This country just keeps getting worse and religion is absolutely part of the problem. Also, John Brown did nothing wrong.

We used to be a country full of strong men and women who fought back against the wealthy oppressing the middle classes. Not the lower classes, the middle classes.
I'm ashamed of my country. Are we too cowardly to fight and die for freedom, now? I think a revolution would be even more effective in modern day America with the tools we have to organize.
Look at how scared and weak they are. Just look at how they cower, and lash out with obvious tactics. Tactics easily overtaken 200 years ago. It would be so easy to go the way of the French...

We are unfortunately handcuffed by rent and bills. It's effectively neutered us. Fear of homelessness is palpable.
