More than prop up, US police have trained in Israel for years and we also train and advise the IDF. There would be no Israel or genocide being committed by the IDF if it weren't for the support of the US.

Lots of good tips here, but one simple thing helped me. When you are trying to sleep imagine you just woke up early in the morning but long before you have to be up. Like pretending it's 4 in the morning, idk why but putting my mind in that place helps me.

I wish I could find the image again, I remember a good shirt that had a molotov or a brick labeled 'vote' and a flaming police car labeled 'ballot box'

Trump still had a chance, and Biden is less popular than he was in 2020, I personally doubt Biden will win.

The majority might not celebrate this murder directly, but support for the Republican party in the US is implicit support for dehumanization of trans people which inspires these murders. The policies and rhetoric used by the mainstream right-wing are responsible for this death.

If someone holds a gun to the head of your child, and you shoot the person to protect your child, who in this situation is normalizing the violence?

Oh, so no burning then, compost it is. Good thinking, more sustainable!

Encouraging an explicitly genocidal political movement is not protected free speech, similar to how a person can be charged with a crime for threatening someones life.

They would at the least be booked on charges that will obviously not stick, so that there face and name becomes public data and they get added to lists by political rivals. This was the MO throughout 2020, there were several popular twitter accounts that would just post the mugshots and names of people arrested, the majority of which weren't charged or often weren't even part of the protest but ended up doxxed and harrassed by chuds.
