Desecrating American soil by killing a farm worker for a photo-op is an outrage. And it’s Fascism.
No human being is illegal.
Waving a flag is not a criminal act and is protected under the First Amendment.
United Farm Workers @ufw.bsky.social
UPDATE: we tragically can confirm that a farm worker has died of injuries they sustained as a result of yesterday’s immigration enforcement action.

The fact that a person acted pursuant to order of his Government or of a superior does not relieve him from responsibility under international law, provided a moral choice was in fact possible to him.
“I was following orders” is not a defense.
Fascist pigs.
