When Activism Collides With Federal Power

from The Cruel Philosophr

In this episode, I examine the fatal ICE shooting through the lens of protest culture and federal power. As activists increasingly attempt to obstruct immigration enforcement, I argue that moral certainty — especially among those insulated from the consequences — can turn dangerous. This isn't a defense of policy or personality, but a critique of how ideology, privilege, and symbolism collide with the reality of federal authority. Want to contact me?
