Here’s the flier I made to take to the Austin #NoKings rally. Feel free to adjust for your area and use it too

We Protested, Now What?

No one has to do it all.
Find what you're good at, and join your community.

1. Mutual Aid - Collect and distribute food, clothing, hygiene items, blankets, or school supplies. Learn what your vulnerable neighbors need, and help them get it.
2. Labor Organizing - We, the working class, hold the power to SHUT DOWN the economy. Talk to your coworkers.
Unionize. Make demands. Walk out.
3. Community Defense - Monitor and document ICE and CBP activity. Learn de-arrest tactics and intervene. Embrace your 2a right to protect yourself and communities under attack.
4. Education - Read liberation theory and share it with others.
Join a reading group, and study revolutionaries of the past (ex: Lenin, Che, Rosa Luxemburg, Ho Chi Minh, Malcolm X).
5. Boycott - Don't spend your money with companies that donate to the Texas GOP or support the IDF.

Job occupations, from an 1881 census. Every one of these sounds like something a sorely provoked Captain Haddock would should at someone in times of heavy stress.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I'm excited for Limp Bizkit, but I'm a little worried about Antifa...
Question
I'm sick and tired of seeing these thugs terrorize big events and am worried that they will try to interrupt Limp Bizkit's set. My gf (F19) and I (M31) are going to our first Lollapalooza and are concerned about the growing threat around the city

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.
