The eight people a federal court just sentenced to between thirty and a hundred years as an antifa terror cell are fed-up America: a middle school teacher, a college student, a mechanical engineer, a UPS worker. Most had never met before the night they gathered outside the Prairieland ICE jail in Alvarado, Texas, to set off fireworks for the people held inside.This reaches well past Trump. The judge was appointed by George W. Bush, not Trump, and he said the sentences were meant to send a message to anyone who would lead what he called “an assault on democracy.”To make them a cell, prosecutors built modern spectral evidence: a black sweatshirt, an encrypted app, a box of self-published zines, offered as proof of membership in an organization that does not exist. It is an impossibility entered as fact, the way the courts of 1692 entered testimony about invisible spirits, and it exists to establish a Big Lie large enough to justify the regime’s abusive authority.And the court, carrying the regime’s water, set the rule it wanted on the record: the only legitimate protest is one that stays rigidly peaceful and distinctly unthreatening to anyone or anything, much less the regime. The defendants’ own messages, their lawyers say, described a plan for a peaceful demonstration.#publichistory #resistancehistory #howrevolutionary #antifa #prairieland
