Washington, D.C. residents are posting “ICE ABDUCTED SOMEONE HERE” signs across the city, accusing agents of targeting vulnerable people — a grassroots campaign that’s igniting outrage from the Trump administration and federal officials.
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.
