This kind of stuff needs to be happening everywhere. While tame, I feel they are effective. Sure, there have been a few outbursts, but nothing on a deadly scale (that I’ve heard of). The protests, the recordings, the notifications are all good things, and it needs to continue.
What this administration is banking on, is that someone snaps and does commit a violent crime, or that a violent protest does break out so that they can finally implement their grand takeover scheme. They are trying so hard and lying every step of the way to write their own story on what’s occurring. They know exactly what they are doing - attempting to find a fuse that they can light. They are not “freaking out”.
People are pissed. Yelling, recording, using vulgar language aren’t the best tools, but they are not acts of violence. We have to toe the line very carefully, but we also need to continue finding ways to make it known what is happening in cities and streets. The mainstream media isn’t going to help. It doesn’t matter what side they say they are on. If they truly cared, they’d be out there everyday because this shit is happening 24/7. It’s up to the people to make it known.
We’re aligned against the rich, the police, the military, the judges, Congress, the president, the (most influential American) priests, and the press. And every major social media platform. And the government is currently shut down.
And they need you to “be violent” so they can justify what comes next? If that’s what they need, the violence will occur by hook or crook. Disasters are frequent, and none are being wasted.
It’s past time for a prolonged general strike. Short of that, the only hope for a return to norms is a military coup, and even that is only a fool’s hope.
If everything we are seeing is true, then why o why are the police not doing anything? Anyone can put on a mask, and claim to be ICE. People need to start defending themselves. You might think your loved ones are in some ICE hell hole, but they could also be in some dungeon being gang raped by junkies for some sick cunts amusement. You all need to defend yourself. Demand that the police do their fucking jobs, and protect the citizens from kidnapping.
Go down to the station. DEMAND that they do their fucking jobs.
They should add “and sent them to concentration camps”
ICE is not ‘kidnapping’ illegal aliens,”
“Aliens”: dehumanizing is the first step.
“Not kidnapping”: so the cases are traceable, the not-kidnapped healthy in body and spirit and the agent’s are not anonym?

Now we know what Stolpersteine would look like in the American built environment.
Yeah, signs. I bet the Gestapo is freaking out…
US admin calls the signs “untrue smears”. - Is that true or false?
Lol it is, “Trump True.”
White house freaking out? Only because they want to use ICE to catch and jail the makers of the signs and can’t find them. It wouldn’t be because ICE are actually gestapo.
No, because that makes some people think. And Trump & co. know they can only hold the facade of a legal government up if the people agree.
Lol. Strongly worded signs go brrrrr
If they haven’t seen a lawyer or heard charges or been arraigned, it’s a kidnapping by an unidentified masked vigilante.
Rats and roaches HATE the light, don’t they?
Excuse me. Rats are intelligent and can complete simple tasks.
And roaches are a valuable part of the ecosystem
Oh fuck yeah. Am going to share this article… We’ve got ICE scurrying around the area here where I live and when they sweep someone up and disapear them w/o letting friends and/or family know… Yeah. Time to make a stink. I hope this keeps going and spreads across the country.
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement. “These smears have led to a 1,000% increase in assaults against our officers — including terrorist threats, vehicle attacks, and bounties on their heads.”
I’d love to see the data to back that up.
Also, we can do better. Why not a 10,000% increase? Or a 100,000% increase?
Like the man in the stall said to the guy waiting, “Gimme time baby, gimme time”
Id love to see the names and badge numbers of those officers that were assaulted. Also the names and badges of those who witnessed it and any bodycam footage.
Hold onto those names and footage for charging them after the fascists fall and these people need to be held to account.
An incredibly convenient property of small numbers is that if you add a small number to a very small number, the % increase is orders of magnitude larger than both numbers combined and that looks very impressive when you are pretending to do statistics.
Yes, that was the joke
I was attempting to add to/build on the joke. Apologies if I came off as doing anything else.
No worries, it read to me like you were explaining the bit without seeing the joke
Ahh, the wonders of text-only communication!
You know who also abducted people randomly?
THE FUCKING NAZIS IN GERMANY!
But something like that would never happen in the Land of The Free and The Home of The Brave, right?
randomly
Not quite
If you think the Nazis only targeted jews you’re in for a huge surprise. They also went for scientists, university professors, political adversaries, so called sexual deviants (their words not mine), … Same as Trump and his goons are doing right now.
And Soviet Russia…
I wondered why you had two downvotes, but then I remembered that tankies actually exist.
authoritarians of every aesthetic
Yup! It was Pinochet’s favorite thing.
Mao and Pol Pot too!
