            Yeah, but they’re not identifying which shit it is.

            It sounds like they’re saying the shit with ice murdering Minnesotans is bad, but it could also be that the strikes are bad and ice should murder more Minnesotans.

          I read they’re working behind the scenes with the enforcement arm of the oppressors.

        It does more than scare. If enough do it for long enough it’ll work. Pretty rapidly as well.
