My once in a while post to keep my account active from crypto accounts taking over to say:
Happy Pride Month to everyone
You are valid
Free Palestine
STFU about woke
Get these fucks out the FGC
That AI bill came due, huh?
My Superman slippers/socks pic is still hard
We’re hearing from @Ludthinks after he was detained by ICE during a routine check-in. He’s never had any issues with law enforcement. So, why after nearly 20 years of check-ins was he detained? I spoke with Ludovic Marcel Mbock about his experience. ICE did not respond to our requests for comment. @wusa9
BREAKING: WE DID IT!!! LUDOVIC IS COMING HOME!!!
The judge, clearly moved by 20 people turning up in person alongside 20 online, ruled entirely in Lud’s favor with low bond.
Update to come when he is home. The team is optimistic about his hearing in May.

Being here without papers is by itself literally not a crime, it's usually a civil offense. The idea that ICE is simply enforcing the law is absurd, esp because of how often they actively break it. No, it's about xenophobia & racism and I refuse to give those ideas any credence
#FREELUD UPDATE:
- Lud and others were *chained for 7 hrs* before being flown to Georgia, the 2nd move in 2 days in defiance of his lawyers’ habeas corpus & a court order.
- The GoFundMe organizers are moving to contact media to boost the story and help #FREELUD.
KEEP POSTING.
It's easy to say "I just want to play games" when you aren't the people being attacked. With as multinational and multiracial the FGC is I cannot fathom support ICE and what they're doing.
This is a problem for ALL of us, not just "them". We are them and they are us.
Supporting ICE and being in the FGC is so fundamentally conflicting I just can't fathom how many mental gymnastics you have to go through to reconcile that.
And you people in the FGC creating burner accounts to suck off ICE are cowards. Can't even put a name or face to your beliefs, just scared af.
Fuck ICE and fuck y'all.
Ludovic from THG was detained by ICE, and right now he needs us. He’s more than a teammate — he’s family.
We’ve set up a support link to help with legal fees and support during this time. If you can donate, please do. If not, please share.

I wouldn't blame anyone from overseas for skipping EVO, CEO, Combo Breaker, or any tournament with a large international appeal. A member of the FGC got snatched up by ICE, an American citizen mind you. It's simply not a safe time.
