I wanted to share this with a bigger account for more reach

I am a high schooler in Tennessee and I received this today. I can only assume it went home with younger kids in the district as well. This is an obvious ploy to find illegal immigrants, disguised as a “helpful program” or “quick survey.” The back of the page is a Spanish translation.

DO NOT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THINGS LIKE THIS!! I’M ONLY TURNING MINE IN BECAUSE I DO NOT APPLY AND IT WILL WASTE THEIR TIME. Recognize malicious shit like this when it’s in front of your face!! Warn others!! Expose it!! This is how it’s happening under Trump.

HUGELY HELPFUL SHARE OF INFORMATION! yes!! waste their fucking time!

IMMIGRANT RIGHTS RESOURCES (forwarding from a friend -- share widely)

Hope you are having a blessed day! With the help of a friend, I have compiled a list of resources that provide info in several different languages regarding immigrant rights.  I am sharing these links to resources with you and others because we never know who will come into our orbit that might need help or the orbit of others dear to us. This is by no means a complete list but it useful and helpful nonetheless.

Immigrant Rights Resources 

Flyers regarding immigrant rights if ICE raids the home, workplace or arrest them in the street.

Red Cards (template to be printed and laminated) are small cards that immigrants can carry in their language which would have course of action if they get stoped but also in the back it explains to the ice agent in English that the person being stopped is instituting their rights under the la which applies to them.

Protest Against I.C.E. Raids in Lubbock, Texas February 1, 2025

[malikaihii]

i’m so sorry for all the americans right now, this is scary time. Remember to stay safe and that you are loved <333

Can we bring back the safety pin?

The single safety pin that signals to others you are an accepting, tolerant, sane individual who believes that everyone should be afforded the same rights and freedoms no matter their gender, sexuality, race, immigration or economic status?

It's simple, accessible, and a way for others to know that you're safe.

It's also inconspicuous enough that the typical, ignorant MAGA shithead won't clock it and harass you for simply existing.

I'll start wearing mine again. How about you?

Political Posting

I know I'm a sonic franchise fan blog, but I cannot sit idle while I watch the freedoms of myself and my fellow Americans spin the drain. I know it will be exhausting, but I've lived through this once before as an angry teenager.

But she's back, and she's even madder as an adult with a degree in Anthropology; a student of sociology; a patron of history; a woman from the deep south; a bisexual; a LIVING BREATHING BEING WITH RIGHTS!

I hate that people won't call a duck a duck.

THESE MEN ARE NAZIS.

PEACE HAS GOTTEN US NOTHING.

VIOLENCE BEGOTS VIOLENCE, BUT PERHAPS IT IS THE ONLY LANGUAGE PSYCHOPATHS WITH THE IQ OF MEAT PIGS CAN SPEAK.

Nothing gets done in this nation without violence. Nothing will ever happen. "Progress is slow!" They say.

Progress is not always positive. Donald Trump has unchecked, unprecedented power. Germany was dismantled in 53 days by three men one of which gets all the credit because he was the acting Chancellor. What makes you think DJT won't destroy the United States in 30 days? He already destroyed the election with interference, propaganda, and outright election fraud!

"Oh, but stranger on the internet, this nation is a global force! We cannot take on a nation!"

You spineless fool, have you forgotten the blood-soaked birth of our nation?

And yes, it is that serious. Tomorrow CHILDREN will be DRAGGED from their ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS FOR SIMPLY BEING BROWN IN AMERICA.

THE PUBLIC HAS NO IDEA WHERE THEY WILL BE HOLDING THESE INNOCENT PEOPLE UNTIL THEY CAN "DEPORT" THEM.

That is a page straight out of the Nazi's playbook.

If you didn't care about censorship, libraries, gay people, trans people, disabled people, schools, unions, workers rights, Muslims, minimum wage, birth control, women, sexual education, or voting rights perhaps you will care about this tidbit from the aftermath of WW2:

First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me Pastor Martin Niemöller

You are not immune to the incoming cullings because of your status. You are not immune to propaganda. In order for a dictatorship to function it needs to convince the public that it has an enemy. You will become the enemy.

!!!! NATION-WIDE HUMAN RIGHTS WALKOUT !!!!

WHEN?

wednesday, february 12th

WHERE?

at busy street intersections on the sidewalk in your town/city/general area

WHY?

trump is on an executive order rampage, seemingly stripping away rights and hard fought progress for minorites. while simultaneously being a convicted sex-offending felon who has pardoned violent men who participated in january 6th. trump is also starting on a "migrant detention camp" (concentration camp) in guantanamo bay.

america is on a path towards doom, and it will only get worse if we don't speak up. there comes a time when the hand that's supposed to feed no longer feeds; it definitely tastes better than air, and i'm tired of going to bed hungry. we can not simply just abide by all the rules and laws they tell us to follow. we have to go out there and use our voices.

if our voices didnt matter, they wouldnt put so much effort into hiding it.

SPREAD AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. REPOST EVERYWHERE. PRINT THIS OUT AND HANG IT UP AS A FLIER. GET AS MANY PEOPLE TO HEAR ABOUT IT AS YOU CAN

Undocumented immigration is the very definition of a victimless crime. They are not taking your tax dollars. They are not eligible for social security. They are not responsible for the jobs crisis, greed and automation is. They pay millions of dollars into social programs they don't benefit from. They are nothing more than the rich and elites scapegoat for all the problems they caused us.

Yet despite this, my home state of Missouri has introduced bill SB72. This bill does a number of things, for starters it changes undocumented immigration from a civil crime to a felony. This prohibits undocumented immigrants from EVER applying for citizenship or a visa.

Additionally, making the crime a felony now means it's punishable by jail time rather than deportation. So, how much jail time does this bill recommend for the crime of undocumented immigration? LIFE IMPRISIONMENT WITH NO CHANCE FOR PAROLE, PROBATION, OR EARLY RELEASE. They don't want these people out of the country, they want them enslaved in Missouri's labor camps.

And if that wasn't bad enough, this bill allows for what they're calling "Missouri Illegal Alien Certified Bounty Hunters". They are proposing paying citizens $1,000 per person they report to the government as undocumented.

Below, I've attached the official bill summary from the Missouri State Senate website. The sick sack of shit sponsoring this bill is Missouri Senator David Gregory

If you'd like to contact Mr. Gregory, his office is 201 W. Capitol Ave., Rm. 331

Jefferson City, Missouri 65101

His phone number is 573-751-5568

Personal ramblings because I am MAD.

I can’t have children. Back in 2016, my husband and I suffered a miscarriage that nearly took my life. I’m one of the women you’ve probably read about here of late where missed miscarriages are concerned. I nearly died and had to have an emergency D&E thanks to a blood clot the size of a cantaloupe taking shape in my uterus. Yes, you read that correctly. A cantaloupe. The nurses and my surgeon were shocked. I feel incredibly lucky however because it happened during a time where I didn’t have to worry about receiving the surgery or not. And the staff who took care of me were incredibly kind.

I live in Texas. This election has hit me very deeply.

Moving forward, I have good friends with children and I’ve been able to be a part of their lives. Two of which are in their younger years, and another is a teenager. It makes my heart unfathomably happy to get to be around them, to hear their laughter, listen to their stories I can barely understand because they’re 4 and 5 years old 😂🥰, and help the teenager just by being someone they can speak with freely.

They’re our found family. We’re all having Christmas and Thanksgiving together since none of us have close ties to our family. We’re all either LGBTQIA+, POC, or we’ve cut our family out due to abuse.

My found family means everything to me. We’ve all been there for one another. And we also all play D&D together, cook together, I help meal prep, we give each other rides when we need them, we’ve helped one another with home supplies, gas money when we have it, etc.

I’m so fucking terrified for my family. One of them is a female veteran who was sexually abused in the military. Another is a Hispanic male in the health care industry working in behavioral therapy for abused children. Our son, as we all call him, only turned 21 this year, a black man who I’d die to protect without hesitation. He’s our fucking baby boy and I’m so angry, hurt, upset, and scared for him. He’s the first person I thought of when all this shit started, especially with the text messages which were sent out. Fortunately he didn’t get one.

These are people and they’re real. They’re not the enemy.

They’re my family.

This is why we’re cutting people who voted for Trump out of our lives. If you voted for Trump, you voted to harm my family. I may just be one person, yes. But know that I hate you. I hate you. I fucking hate you.

And I’m not alone.

We all hope you live the lives you deserve, pigs. And when you realize what you’ve done, when you need an abortion, when your child is trans, when you fall in love with a POC and learn the terror they live in on the daily basis, know this:

You voted for Donald Trump. You did this to yourself. And you may find compassion from others.

You will receive none from me.
