last night, someone on tiktok asked me how wearing a mask is antifascist, so i answered: unfortunately, even passive, austere eugenics works faster if YOU participate. so step up: stand out, mask up, and take care take care take care for yourself & others—before those who seek to harm stop you.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: our punk and drag shows have more covid mitigation than disease foundation summits and physicians conferences. Why can we do what people whose careers supposedly depend on the knowledge—with far more resources— can’t? #WeKeepUsSafe

We endorse these demands put out by @latenantsunion.bsky.social: 1. ICE OUT OF LA 2. DROP ALL CHARGES 3. FREE THEM ALL 4. IMMEDIATE RELIEF FOR WORKING CLASS ANGELENOS 5. A BUDGET FOR THE PEOPLE, NOT THE WEALTHY

DEMANDS:
1. ICE OUT OF LA!
Stop direct and indirect LAPD collaboration with
ICE; stop ICE and federal troops from using state or city resources, including processing centers and staging areas; declare ICE a rogue federal agency with no place in LA County.
2. DROP ALL CHARGES!
Drop the charges against SEIU California President David Huerta and all others arrested for protesting
ICE activity in their neighborhoods.
3. FREE THEM ALL!
Allow everyone kidnapped by ICE to return to their families and loved ones. Publicize the names and locations of the kidnapped; allow observers to report whether they have access to food, sanitation, and legal counsel.

DEMANDS:
4. IMMEDIATE RELIEE FOR WORKING CLASS ANGELENOS!
Raids accelerate mass sweeps and evictions: tenants, housed and unhoused, are displaced when family members are kidnapped or too scared to go to work.
Declare a county wide eviction moratorium, implement a rent freeze, abolish 41.18, and stop the sweeps.
5. A BUDGET FOR THE PEOPLE, NOT THE WEALTHY!
LA City Council uses our tax dollars to evict, criminalize and cage. When the people take back the budget, we can house and ensure necessities for all.
• Defund LAPD
• Cancel the 2026 World Cup and the 2028 Olympics, which keep electeds beholden to billionaire developers like Trump.
• All Angelenos, regardless of immigration status, should participate in the creation of the LA city budget.

We need to do some serious narrative work here - we should be careful about inflating labor’s role in the uprising. Them and other nonprofits have steered people away from the actual contention points on the ground. It’s the young people of LA that are providing the spark. Not labor.

Pcc tweet “There should be a discussion about how the nonprofits ushered hundreds people away from of the point of contention at the detention center, allowing for DHS to target and attack a smaller crowd (still a couple hundred ppl).
Don't talk about "shutting it down" - be about it.”

In Canada, it was illegal to proactively offer Assisted dying when terminal patients were the only ones eligible. When it was expanded to include disabled people, they started allowing doctors to “offer it”. Encourage them to bring it up. Do you think this should be permitted?

Yes, please again emphasize that they are wearing gaitors. Not masks. Gaitors have zero benefit for disease prevention. They provide no protection for that. Face masks and respirators (higher quality face masks) are distinctly different. There are mask ban bills. Make these distinctions.
