And here’s a lady getting arrested for wearing a medical mask

Anti-ICE protesters in Austin, who as far as I can tell were mostly just standing on the steps and sidewalk in front of the JJ Pickle federal building, have been dispersed with tear gas and flash bangs.

Tear gas was fired at protesters in Austin at the JJ Pickle Federal Building to disperse protesters.
The area has been cleared. The building is used by ICE to process people for deportation.

There was another protest at the Texas Capitol.

The group at the federal building wasn’t identified.

The image is from a "Transparency Center" document and lists guidelines regarding acceptable and prohibited content for insults. It mentions: 1. Insults about: Character, such as cowardice, dishonesty, criminality, and sexual promiscuity or immorality. Mental characteristics, including but not limited to accusations of stupidity, intellectual capacity, and mental illness, as well as unsupported comparisons among politically correct (PC) groups based on inherent intellectual traits. 2. Highlighted section: The document allows allegations of mental illness or abnormality when tied to gender or sexual orientation, referencing political and religious discourse about transgenderism and homosexuality. It also acknowledges the non-serious use of terms like "weird."

Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

Meta Now Lets Users Say Gay and Trans People Have ‘Mental Illness’ Meta rolled out a number of changes to its “Hateful Conduct” policy Tuesday as part of a sweeping overhaul of its approach toward content moderation.

I don’t even know where to start. I’m low key having anxiety about this. I was developing community there on 🧵, but I don’t know that I want to deal with the hateful rhetoric that these changes might allow.

Working on migrating over from 🧵 due to upcoming changes over there. I enjoy:
• Comics
• Star Wars
• Star Trek
• Cooking
• Politics, etc.

Will write more later.

💯

I made a thing. Use it well.
