ICE needs to be abolished, yes, and ideally its agents should be punished, but I haven't seen anyone bring up something even more important, which is the reparation of the harm done, with an emphasis on family reunification

@julieofthespirits @Quasit I didn't say they were all dead. Whatever.
@noodlemaz @Quasit no, you need to apologize for calling people dead whose whereabouts we don't know. It's extremely irresponsible, and disrespectful to the families involved

@noodlemaz @Quasit it's extremely irresponsible to call someone dead when they are disappeared, what you are doing is the opposite of helping
@julieofthespirits @noodlemaz Excuse me, but I think you're being unnecessarily hostile to Marianne. I see no sign of the malice that you are ascribing to her.
Mastodon is more kind and tolerant than sites like Facebook and Reddit, in general. It's easy to bring old habits from those sites here. I myself make an extra effort to be understanding here, just because I'm used to fighting with people online on the old sites. At worst, I mute and move on.
I believe we're all on the same side in this conversation. Given the atrocities we're seeing every day, it's only natural to get angry. But we need to aim that anger at the fascists, not each other.
Just my two cents.
