Ist das eigentlich schonmal jemand aufgefallen? Mehr als 2 Milliarden Menschen (mehr als ein Viertel der Weltbevölkerung) sind Muslimas oder Muslime. In der Organisation für islamische Zusamnenarbeit sind mehr als 50 Staaten organisiert. Einige der reichsten Staaten (zB Saudi-Arabien und die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate) sind muslimisch.

Looky here, America
What you done done---
Let things drift
Until the riots come.
Now your policemen
Let your mobs run free.
I reckon you don't care
Nothing about me.
You tell me that Hitler
Is a mighty bad man.
I guess he took lessons
From the Ku Klux Klan.
You tell me Mussolini's
Got an evil heart.
Well, it mus-a been in Beaumont
That he had his start---
Cause everything that Hitler
And Mussolini do,

I’ve been really interested in both aspects of this post:
1. ICE right-wing fringe groups conspicuously steered clear of protests yesterday in a way that suggests that orders went out (whose?) and/or (I’m guessing “and”) that there’s a sense from those people that they don’t have public support and don’t have free license to instigate violence.
2. Police went out of their way to put on a friendly face. I’ve been getting vibes that some local police resent ICE — “this is OUR turf, beating up Black and brown people was OUR job” — and, contrary to what we and the regime might expect, ICE isn’t always getting free support by default from that quarter.
Caveats: No solid conclusions here, just reading vibes. And even if it is actually true for now, all of this can shift on a dime. Still, sure is notable. https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:mxc7liuon6iq5gzapmmwkq22/post/3m3krd3w4s22k
