Talk as much shit about the French as you want, but they would have burned Élysée Palace down before the weekend. Just saying.

For all my homies, particularly those who are part of communities that are in danger that's increasing by the minute... You need to arm yourselves. Even if you're the most pacifist peace-lover in your drum circle, we're at that point. If you wait, it's going to be too late. Buy a gun or two. Now.

A gay guy, a Black man, and a woman walk into a flight deck— that’s not the beginning of a joke, but just a regular day at work! There was so much DEI on this plane that we could hardly get in the air. Luckily my limp wrists were able to wrestle the heavy jet back to the ground 💅🏼

Planes are falling out of the sky, an unelected megalomaniac is destroying federal data, and states are already passing laws requiring legal immigrants to carry special IDs. It's been 11 days. I fear there may be no way we avoid violent conflict within our own borders before the year is out.

TIL three things: First, Elon Musk's grandfather was a leader in the Technocracy movement. (look that up for funsies) Second, Jeff Bezos' grandfather was involved in establishing DARPA. Finally, I need to apologize to every conspiracy theorist and schizophrenic I've encountered over the years.

You're goddamn right I'm going to be criticizing them. With what's going on, I expect to see lightning shooting from the asses of Democratic leadership, and will continue to call them spineless, ineffectual cucks until it happens.

Today marks 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz, a time to honor the resilience of survivors and remember those who perished. Let us reflect on the lessons of history and commit to a future of justice, compassion, and the fight against hate.

The threat of ICE has tons of people on high alert, the result is claims of ICE seen without firm or specific info people can actually use — & sometimes, no ICE at all. It’s never “ICE spotted in Queens,” but “4 SUVs labeled DHS seen parked on 57th & 59th in Maspeth at 2:34pm.” Be specific!
Spread Information not panic
When reporting or signal boosting potential threats: provide as much information as possible!
S.A.L.U.T.E.
Size/Strength
"5 to 6 Armed Agitators"
Actions/Activity
"Harassing random people on the move"
Location & Direction
"Manhattan, East of Central Park, E 97th St"
Uniform/Clothes
"Dark Jackets, ballcaps"
Time & Date of Observation
"8:32 PM June01"
Equipment & Weapons
"They have Body Armor and Pepper spray"
Not a useful tweet: "proudboys spotted"
"Where? When? What are they doing?
How Many? What are they carrying?"
Use your Judgement!

Pro tip: stop using your government name on socials. Adopt a nom de guerre now, and stick to it. Separate your identity as an activist from your real identity as much as possible. Start adopting sound OPSEC and COMSEC practices now. More on this to follow soon.

Hey #Richmond! We NEED to generate more publicity about the ICE raids in #RVA! If you see or hear about an ICE raid, tag me with the location! If you're not comfortable, send me a DM or message me on Signal @rocinante.25 Also looking for folks willing to respond to video raids in progress!

I honestly thought we had more time. House Resolution 26 was introduced today, broadly defining normal protest activity as being affiliated with "Antifa", making protestors "domestic terrorists". You will be a terrorist for having signs such as ‘‘We are ungovernable’’, ‘‘Abolish ICE", (1/2)

Alright folks, gather 'round. We need to have a serious talk. Grab a drink, smoke 'em if you got 'em, because our situation here is rapidly becoming worse than even I thought. People are excited that TikTok has re-materialized after going dark since last night. Please keep reading.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

Liberal, conservative, leftist, libertarian, it doesn't matter. The TikTok ban is an attack on your First Amendment rights designed to funnel you to the oligarchs' surveillance platforms, so that the boot remains on your neck. It's only going to get worse. Get angry. Get organized. Take action.

When I was younger and did things that were a lot cooler than what I do now, we had a flag very similar to this hanging in our ready room. And it couldn't be more true. No one is going to come fix our democracy. No one is coming to save the Republic. It's up to us. Act accordingly.

The number of white liberals saying that you should never assert your rights in case of unlawful violence by law enforcement honestly terrifies me. And the people saying we have to let Trump deport people because of respect for the election are even worse. You still have rights. Fucking use them.

Hoo boy... I keep getting "new followers". Except they're all white women with a brief 2-sentence description, and have all reposted the exact same set of photography posts in the same order. So... Generic scam bots, or federal agent accounts? Foreign scammers are usually a little more creative.

The next 4 years will be horrific for immigrants. Please follow the steps below if you are an immigrant or send it to any immigrant you know. I’m afraid anyone who just looks like an immigrant will be caught up in this process. RT to share far and wide, please! Follow @nilc.org for more info!
Know your rights. Put together a family preparedness plan. Consult an immigration attorney. Get a state ID if allowed. Connect with  grassroots group in your community.

Dear activist organizers: Stop collecting people's phone numbers. You should be doing your comms via a secure platform like Signal or SimpleX. I don't think people really understand what the surveillance state is going to look like very soon. #opposition #resistance #resist #nowarbutclasswar
