PEPPER SPRAY IS THE LEAST TOXIC GAS IN TRUMPS CABINET WHEN THEY CAN JUST PULL A TRIGGER TO MAKE THE FILES GO AWAY ANOTHER DAY
On the morning of Saturday, January 24, 2026, federal agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis during an intensified immigration enforcement operation, marking the third such shooting in the city in just over three weeks.
The incident unfolded near the intersection of 26th Street West and Nicollet Avenue as large numbers of federal officers were deployed as part of a broader crackdown.
Local officials confirmed the man died after being shot in the confrontation, and Minneapolis police urged the public to avoid the area as authorities investigated.
The latest shooting comes on the heels of earlier incidents this month, including the January 7 fatal shooting of Renée Good by an ICE agent, which sparked widespread protests and growing criticism of federal immigration enforcement tactics in Minnesota.
Governor Tim Walz condemned the latest shooting and called for an end to the deployment of federal agents in the state, saying the situation was âsickeningâ and urging that untrained officers be pulled out immediately.
Something enormous is happening, but it doesnât announce itself as violence.
It arrives as platforms, transactions, and terms of service.
Dark tech doesnât need to terrorize loudly.
It just needs to be expensive, everywhere, and normalized.
Social media leaves a residue.
You feel it when you look in the mirror.
Not guilt exactly â
more like the knowledge that you could have helped
and didnât know where to put your hands.
Everyoneâs shouting âleftâ or ârightâ
while money quietly changes ownership.
Pieces sold. Parts traded.
Influence becomes modular.
We thought we were becoming awake.
But fighting technology with technology
just teaches the tools how to win.
Even language starts to fold.
Even swear words lose their edge.
So we rise â not louder, just clearer.
Sometimes a figure appears
not as a savior
but as a compression artifact.
A mirror that shows every flaw of the system at once.
Not prophecy.
Not punishment.
Just signal.
Organic beats synthetic.
Presence beats noise.
Seeing beats shouting.
â
Satire as impressionism, not projectionism.
WHEN EVEN SWEAR WORDS CAPITULATE
