#icewatching
icewatching this morning and it occurs to me that despite reports of ice detaining people, the quantity in nyc has been incredibly small compared to the xenophobic noise surrounding it. sort of realtime debunking like 2 years of nypost/eric adams propaganda. if only new yorkers noticed.

sure is convenient for the people you oppose that you’re focusing your energy bashing someone who’s encouraging you to find productive activities (kyr distro, icewatching, for example!) and who is discouraging the superficial draw of a dance party on an empty corner.

very convenient.

I was up in Columbia Heights/Mt. Pleasant last night IceWatching and I was struck by how few people were on the streets.

Restaurants were near empty.

There were plenty of parked cars. People are still there, they’re just afraid to leave their homes.
Trump on DC: "The restaurants the last two days were busier than they've been in a long time." (Data in fact shows restaurant business dropping sharply over last week.)

Anecdotally I’d say they are being a lot more brutal outright to ppl doing response work/icewatching. Obv the TRO helped curb their chemical weapons here but the beatings and physical force seems to be escalating. Still the same amount of brutality all around for the people they’re trying to kidnap.

Touch grass (get a group of people you trust to watch your back and start copwatching/ICEwatching)

If you want to rely purely on numerical arguments, your time ICEwatching was wasted since your local cops kill and brutalize far more people than ICE has during its siege. And yet, the local experience didn’t reflect that, did it?
