For those not following the drama earlier, it's for sharing this piece advocating for nonviolence (but not being judgy about how targeted people respond either). And saying some things about governmental/ institutional violence.
Some Notes on the City of Angels and the Nature of Violence

Huge protests today in Belgrade and Budapest.

In Belgrade half a million people joined protests against corrupt, pro-Kremlin Aleksandar Vučić.

In Budapest, hundreds of thousands marched against corrupt, pro-Kremlin Viktor Orban.

Many millions across Europe stand against autocracy and corruption!

There are no words in the English language sufficient to describe how heartburstingly angry I am at the 8 traitors who just sold us all down the river.

It is our job as Americans to make sure they can NEVER appear in public life EVER again.

Die wretched and alone, unloved by your country.

And federal agents in plain clothes who refuse to identify themselves will be the ones to do it.

If you think I'm being hyperbolic, watch this clip.

“Jewish leaders need to ask themselves if they’re willing to allow our community to be used in this way to dismantle democratic norms,” said Rabbi Jill Jacobs, CEO of T’ruah: The Rabbinic Call for Human Rights. “If the answer is no, their condemnation of this arrest should be loud and swift.”

I’m thinking students protesters should start printing paper flyers we like used to do back in day.

AI can’t track those.

We have been in a constitutional crisis since the Senate failed to convict Trump for his January 6 insurrection.
