When you see antisemitic bots like this that spam replies to posts criticising Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people, make sure you report and block them.
(They block you after commenting so you can’t act on their post. Unless, that is, you run your own instance like I do and can suspend them.)
But wait, did I just call them antisemitic?

Days of demonstrations against immigration agents and a new lawsuit have left Minnesota tense. Federal officers sprayed eye irritant and dropped tear gas at a swarm of activists Tuesday in Minneapolis. Students, meanwhile, walked out of a suburban school, part of the ongoing tension over the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement sweeps.

The abominations by #ICE continue to increase. #CHN_Action has simple letter to Congress asking them not provide more funding to ICE and DHS until they take responsibility for their abusive behavior - and change their approach.
