5·4 days agoBut that creates a distinction the people in charge can use to deny what’s happening. Now and in the future. “It’s a small group of bad apples, most ICE agents aren’t like that.” Etc.

Real estate prices are still so high that the regular office worker can never imagine owning a home one day. I can only keep telling myself, ‘I must insist on my ideals, and I believe there will eventually be justice.”
They apparently didn’t.
