“They’re going to kill me here,” Neri Alvarado thought. Alvarado was allegedly targeted by the Trump administration because of his tattoo of an autism awareness ribbon. Now, free from El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison, Alvarado wants the world to know what they lived through.
Hate the tattoo - we're not missing pieces; we're not broken, we're different - but unfortunately, the symbolism is well known. The idea that no one brutalizing this poor man knew what the tattoo actually was is just laughable.
OMG this is hard to hear! Thank you for this reporting. It makes me furious to know our country is turning into a military state.
ICE can rot in hell.
The cruelty is the point with Trump.
He is sadistic, vile, etc. I.C.E. film the assaults. This would be good documentation for their trials.
Thank you for reposting.
Thank you for taking the time.
I cannot even begin to express how angry this makes me. Not only for the wrong which was done, but because of the inability to fight against this Kafka-esque reality.
Also I don’t think they’re all back, are they? They sent a plane full of people to CECOT. This guy and Andry were publicized, they were people I mentioned in my calls & emails to my rep. But what about the others? It’s possible none were in ‘gangs’ and none had criminal pasts. They might still be in
CECOT, which is troubling to say the least.
Good god
This is a sad story but ultimately will depressingly have little impact. For some of us, we already assumed this was what it was like. For everyone else, the cruelty is the point.
Tell the world. Speak out! We can not stay silent.
I am disgusted at what this regime is doing. Disgusted.
This is so shameful.
Well, to be fair, RFK jr. is likely planning to declare being autistic a crime in September as part of his "Causes of Autism" report release. The report will say "woke and vaccines" are the only causes of autism. /s
They need to sue ..and these ICE employees need to spend time incarcerated.. maybe we can incarcerate them in El Salvador

No justification, no evidence, and no proof. If they can do that to Neri. What is stopping them from making "You" disappear?
Nothing.
Your white skin, unwavering loyalty to their regime, and your absolute poverty to enslave you to their needs. If you’re not white or you falter in your fealty or you have money they can steal—game on!
This.
I OBJECT! He did not end up there because of that tattoo. The tattoo was no doubt in my mind a rationalization. They've snatched lots of brown people who don't have tattoos, or you can't see their tattoos before being strip searched.
There’s a special place in hell for Trump and his administration as well as the Republicans in the house and senate. They are all complicit
USA Surviellance state believes people are slaves.

Is the US paying for torture? Torture of people who did not have due process?
Or torture of anyone, even if they are guilty as hell! Bc the 8th amendment is as important as the 1st. It guarantees us freedom from cruel and unusual punishment
Yup. Without Congressional approval Up Until the GOP passed the Big beautiful BS Bill and dumped Billions into Noem (The puppy 🐶 Murderers hands).
Yes, Yes. The US pays for torture. Ask the guys in Guantanamo. You can assume the people who do the water boarding are well paid.
It would be one thing if homelessness in America, hunger in America, security in America, healthcare in America all were solved. xIt's not wrong to lock your doors. It's not wrong to take care of your own family first before helping others. It's just unpopular to say this.
imagining what he and others have/are lived/living through makes me sick to my stomach. It's all fun and games to trump and his followers and money to be made for "ice" agents and bounty hunters. truly shameful for america
It makes me so angry. I don't know how anyone can do this to another human being.
And it's Americans taxes that are funding trump's regime of horrors. Trump represents no one but himself, and his regime hates democracy and the rule of law.
Agree he cares about nobody but himself, but in acting out his vile nature he does quite a good job of being representative of the pieces of shit who voted for him.
Donald Trump has a lot to pay for. How could one man possess so much evil | hate | completely devoid of love /compassion/empathy/fairness/decency. It’s no wonder God has shut down Trumps brain, & rotting him from the inside out.
This administration are racist!! I’d like them all to rot in Federal prison for their inhumane treatment of other human beings. If they check my social media, they would deport me, too.
📌
Did he come to the US legally????
Shithole fascist country. I will never get over it. What an ugly nation.
Stephen Miller must be proud of himself. Makes him feel good to torment folks he doesn’t like.
F@ck Pedophile Protector, Child 👶Sex trafficker supporter Donald Trump and his #MAGApedos
This makes me physically sick. I’m glad this is being reported on.
I have to be honest, I hate those Autism puzzle pieces things, but still hate those prisons more
It wasn’t the Autism (although after putting up with six months of Elon Musk, you’d think it WOULD be…. 😖), it was Trump’s utterly tattoo-illiterate mob thinking Venezuelan gang members wore identifying tattoos. Spoiler: They don’t. 🤦♂️ And they don’t have Weapons of Mass Destruction, either.
Trump will rot in hell
Sue their fucking pants off.
write a book. write it all down for the world to read. "surviving cecot".
😢
And all because Trump the Psychopath (and child rapist) needed bodies (any bodies) for a political stunt so he could assert his authority.
And to be clear, you DON'T want people to be armed against this state?

Criminals, corrupt, greedy, without ethics. Manipulating environments when people need a safe place to live. Are there no laws to prevent any or all of this and hold them accountable?
All 3 parts are attached to the original post. Please watch all 3! #Talk about this. #Share this. Tell people #Online & #Offline!! To no ones surprise, the Cons actually did cheat in the 2024 election. There are court cases popping up all over #WhatTheyCryOthersDoTheyDo bsky.app/profile/isth...
17 states, 12 red caught them in 2020 and only one state prosecuted. One. Biden administration and Dems either fucked up or they are just the Good Cop in this.

Thank you for supporting. Your action through the pinned post helps Anas’ family.
Disgusted with ICE 🧊
As much as I hate seeing this its going to be a fight beyond 2026 midterms. Here’s a fight that can be determined with your help and asking others for their help Below is latest attempt chng.it/8pnqh6g9R6 YouTube channel isnt set up well but youtube.com/@projectfirs...
This is horrifying. That someone’s fate is decided by some ICE officer who determines they don’t like the way someone looks. Or their tattoo. It’s insane how quickly our system of checks and balances has collapsed in this country. Shameful
🥲💔🤬
😡🤬
I'm happy for this young man, and proud of the many voices that helped free him, including white privilege. I'm serious when I say, It's important for white Americans empowered with privilege to use it to enact good/ change. To get themselves into good trouble, not viewing privilege as a shame
It's the proper use of privilege - to help other people who don't have it.
But he’s still alive and they didn’t actually have any plans to kill him. Doesn’t matter. His thoughts and feelings are more important than reality.
i specifically voted for this
@motherjones.com thank you for this reporting. Also tho, I dont see any reporting on why Venezuelans were singled out for being sent to cecot. And this week I see reports 🍊 has sent warships to Venezuela. That guy is "a strongman" so why aren't they friends given 🍊's other attractions?
The reason these men wound up in CECOT to be tortured was a result of racial profiling and baseless DOJ fabricated allegations, having no due process, they were put on planes in the middle of the night and sent to El Salvador. In the midst of that Judge
The contracts between Uganda , Bietnamthose orders. They have a contempt order over this ordeal Kiilmar Obrego Garcia was also a man on this flight to the torture gulag
The administration after many requests have still not provided the contract between the US and El Salvador however per Noem hearing roughly $17,000 per head if there are no delays is what each detention and flights cost
the only political platform i support is retribution against those that perpetrated this, and against any countries that collaborated and do not immediately send prisoners home

And they thought Harris was a bigger threat to America?
So sad. My daughter has several tattoos because… I don’t like them but I respect her choice. It’s like hippies & flower child and whatever each generation does. It’s a thing that happens and goes away. No need to freak out over it! I want to see Trump in prison full of tattoos!
We'll well into the era of almost everyone having tattoos. I personally loathe them, but I definitely don't think anyone with a tattoo is automatically a criminal unless your name is Pete Hegseth.
So effing sad. The trump regime is a disgrace
