A call for unity and grace in on this day memory of Martin Luther King Jr.
"We must learn to live together as brothers, or we will perish together as fools."
"The person down the street who votes differently than you is not your enemy. They are your neighbor. They worry about the same things you worry about. They want their kids to be safe and their bills to be paid and their country to be a place worth living in. They have been manipulated just like you have been manipulated, fed a different flavor of the same poison, sorted into a different tribe by the same algorithm, pointed at you as the enemy by the same people who point you at them.
The working class Republican and the working class Democrat have more in common with each other than either of them has with the billionaire class that funds both parties.
You share the same struggles. You face the same rigged systems. You are being crushed by the same economic forces that have transferred more wealth upward in the last fifty years than at any point in human history. And instead of uniting against the people doing this to you, you are screaming at each other on the internet about pronouns and flags and whatever fresh outrage the algorithm served up this morning.
This is exactly what they want. A nation at war with itself cannot resist a takeover. A people consumed by mutual hatred will accept any authority that promises to protect them from the manufactured enemy. Every empire that fell was divided before it was conquered. Every free people who lost their freedom were set against each other first.
The red versus blue war is not real. It is a show put on by people who own both teams. It is professional wrestling and you think it is a real fight. The wrestlers go backstage after the match and laugh together while you are still screaming at the guy in the other section who was rooting for the wrong character.
This Is Our Country Not Theirs
This nation belongs to the people who live here and work here and raise families here and will be buried here. It does not belong to billionaires who hold citizenship in three countries and will flee to their bunkers the moment things get bad. It does not belong to tech oligarchs who view democracy as an obstacle to efficiency. It does not belong to foreign interests who have purchased so much influence that they might as well be writing our laws themselves.
We have to stop letting them divide us. We have to start seeing each other as fellow Americans again instead of enemy combatants in a culture war that was manufactured to keep us weak. We have to remember that the person screaming at us online is also a victim of the same manipulation, and maybe if we stopped screaming back and started talking, we might realize we have been fighting the wrong enemy this entire time.
Turn off the television. It is not informing you. It is programming you. Question everything, including the sources you trust, especially the sources you trust. Talk to people who disagree with you and do it without trying to win. Listen to why they believe what they believe. You might discover that the monster you have been told to hate is actually just another person trying to make sense of a confusing world with imperfect information, exactly like you.
Remember who you are.
You are an American. Your ancestors came to this land or were brought to this land or were already on this land, and regardless of how they got here, they built something together that was supposed to be different from the old world’s tyrannies and aristocracies. That project is not finished. Every generation has to fight to keep it alive against the forces that want to drag us back to a world where a handful of rulers own everything and everyone else serves at their pleasure.
Stop letting them divide you. Your enemies are not your neighbors. Your enemies are the people who profit from your division and are building machines to replace you the moment you are no longer useful.
Start acting like it before it is too late". —The Wise Wolf
That’s a great title for a book.ICE: The Filthy Racket of Kidnapping For Corporate Slavery, you guys should give that some serious consideration. Tony.
That’s all good, keep that report up for as long as you can because I need to go back and finish reading a few more paragraphs please, I am almost finished with it but I want some friends to read it also.

Excellent investigative breakdown linking the detention quotas directly to corporate profit margins. The pay-per-person contracts you detail really expose how the entire system incentivizes arrests regardles of actual security needs. I've always wondered why detention numbers kept climbing even when border crossings dropped, and this explains it perfectly. The bipartisan complicity angle is probablythe hardest truth to swallow but most necessary.
100% agree, I'm disappointed because I cannot share this with my family who actually needs to see it. They will immediately dismiss it as liberal nonsense rage bait from the title alone.
Yes, it's a profit-making soaked in misery and cold-blooded cruelty industry. Creating multimillionaires like the "American" (USA) wars. Contractors, detention centers, 2,000 lb bombs sent by Biden and Trump to Gaza or Yemen, Iran, Syria, Ukraine, Sudan, Iraq: battle ships, fighter jets all cost the taxpayers billions. Some anti-ICE protesters are walking into a trap by eliciting blowback, taunting and abusing agents and deliberately making enemies instead reasoning to gain empathy from possibly amenable ice agents and bringing them to our side as was done with many soldiers of the Vietnam and Iraq wars. It's the "F you" protesters with anger problems who probably do abuse anyone, their wives, their kids. Some protesters are provocateurs bent on giving Trump an excuse to crack down harder, like Netanyahu used the Hamas incursion at the Music Festival to accomplish what he long planned to do, but needed a justification. So well-aware of the Hamas plan he allowed it to happen so he could implement his Genocide in Palestine and take over Gaza. Is Trump doing something similar with the help of performative protesters with limited vocabulary, drunk on their own anger, encouraging a response from Trump (and his minions and paymasters) in kind?
This is very important information and would be much more useful if it was written with more impartial language. You do not convince the other side of anything when you start with "you'll explode with rage" and "bloated orange president". I understand the rage and the blood boiling but this is not how you win people over, you're just preaching to the choir.
So kidnapping children so billionaires can pocket $700 a day isn't offensive. But bloated orange president is. Your "family" has long lost their moral compass and ability to use nuance. They are already lost.

This is so powerful and true.
Thank you Kairos, it is a segment of a larger and phenomenal analysis here: https://tritorch.substack.com/p/everything-you-watch-or-read-is-owned
I think you will find that worth every moment of your time.

That’s a great title for a book.ICE: The Filthy Racket of Kidnapping For Corporate Slavery, you guys should give that some serious consideration. Tony.
@Nourim gets the credit for this.
Great work. So the behaviour becomes more clear. Free enterprise three cheers and all that. But some things are SUPPOSED to be communist.
We need a Paul Birdsong robot factory.
Exactly. I'm always expanding my trivia knowledge when I speak with you. Lol
That’s all good, keep that report up for as long as you can because I need to go back and finish reading a few more paragraphs please, I am almost finished with it but I want some friends to read it also.
It's not going anywhere. Doing the research for this was maddening. The rot runs deep. Real deep.

Thank you all for your tireless efforts to re-educate and tell it like it is!

This monumental work should have far more likes and restacks. This must be read, by every citizen, immigrant, refugee who wants to stop these fuckers.
This is the self reinforcing feedback loop of capital accumulation over life! Thank you for your time and energy putting this together!

Makes sense now. So evil.
Great article, thanks!
You diminish your reach with the disgusting ideological rhetoric which makes it impossible to share your work with normal, decent people.
But if the facts are true, it is damning and illuminating.
Trump was indeed hired by the long-noses to loot what was left of America.
100% agree, I'm disappointed because I cannot share this with my family who actually needs to see it. They will immediately dismiss it as liberal nonsense rage bait from the title alone.
You share and plant the seeds. Let their dissonance break their stony hearts.
No, you drop the disgusting communist nonsense and anti-White rhetoric and then we can talk.
Anti white rhetoric. This is fun. Show me.
Let’s do a quick test. Say something nice about White people and their societies and contribution to the world.
Yes, it's a profit-making soaked in misery and cold-blooded cruelty industry. Creating multimillionaires like the "American" (USA) wars.
