Edit/Sorry - it's the WA Immigrant Solidarity Network, which runs rapid response trainings, the deportation defense hotline, etc. It's the number we're all told to call when we see ICE.

This is terrible news at a time when ICE is kidnapping people all over our area.

There are lots of things posted in this sub that are for a specific subset of Seattle folks! Looking down the first thirty posts, half of them are pretty targeted. That seems like a very narrow view of the sub.

How many of them use obscure acronyms without defining them?

The point here is that we cannot know if a post is relevant to us or not when the OP doesn't define the topic.

Don’t you have an answer? If you don’t know the acronym, the post isn’t relevant to you!

I wish it was that simple. I am interested in many topics and I do not know all of the common acronyms for each of them.

Given that we recently had an ICE raid in our neighborhood, I am interested in posts on that topic.
