I live in an area where people ask you where you’re from and if you actually live in the neighborhood. They may assume you don’t speak English, like they have with my wife.
ICE has already gone through the town nextdoor, and I’m waiting for our turn. I’m light-skinned, but my wife and kids are dark with Mayan features. I fear that all anyone has to do to terrorize my family is call a hotline. We have all our citizenship documentation, but that doesn’t matter anymore.
I keep waiting for the day when I’m going to have to defend my family, but I might not even be around when things take place. What if they come take my wife while she’s at work? What if she goes shopping and never comes back?
I have nothing without my family. I have nothing.


You can protect children all the while destroying fascism.
The problem is that 60% of the 🇺🇲population want their flavor of fascism. Democrats want it through Zionism. GOP’s version is playing out in real time.
What 🇺🇲 culture is there to protect after all the indigenous genocides have been already committed? How are you ensuring children thrive in GOP’s vision of reenslavement, pollution, climate destruction, and book burnings you haven’t protected?
I fail to see a future children are protected that the 🇺🇲 fascists haven’t secured. Unless you have brighter ideas than compliance.
I really tried to engage in good faith, but I can’t believe someone simultaneously thinks there’s no culture and that there’s a genocide. If I’m wrong, it’s my loss. You have a good day.
I asked what culture you’re trying to protect.
The one 🇺🇲 genocides for, or OPs?
Your nonclarity is what speaks louder than my typed pressure.
