The Hypocrisy is the Point
There is always fine print that says, “but only for us.”

Something I've been thinking about for years and needed to write. Stop debating right wingers and ceding any ground to them. Call them out for what they are: unrepentant fascists. They bask in their own rank hypocrisy as a power play. Instead, focus your energy on making a better world without them.
Not to be That Guy but I’ve been tracking cops who commit sex crimes against children. This isn’t just limited to ICE/CBP. There have been over 300 cops in 3 years who’ve committed these crimes.

Stop debating Nazis. If they cared about the truth, they wouldn’t be Nazis. There’s no middle ground, you’re just validating their “views” which are just straight up lies to minimize the Holocaust. They deserve nothing but contempt and violence.
The madness of X in a nutshell:
A groyper‘s Holocaust denial post (cut off) does great numbers — 12K likes, 500K views.
A prominent liberal journalist and author comes in to try to rationally debate it. 300 likes, 25K views.
In a healthy info environment, these two things wouldn’t be interacting

Wow so you’re telling me blockades can be effective? Insane!
SUBMITTED TO US: Bloomington and 35th was held for 7 hours, withstanding two sweeps. Neighbors and friends re-erected the blockade within minutes after both sweeps - before police had even retreated - thanks to the support of neighbors who dropped off more supplies and hot drinks. .

"Antifascism" is something that developed in Italy and Germany by laborers and trade unionists, not politicians worshipping, not adoring ppl who called Black citizens thugs, or bombing innocent ppl. Anarchist antifascists (who were part of the original members, along with Marxists) don't play that.

I’m sorry but trying to shut down the use of whistles through a thin veneer of trauma reduction is extremely sinister. Do you think it’s more traumatizing to hear whistles or to watch people get kidnapped and murdered?
Some nonprofit organizations have been trying to suppress the rapid response tactics that have emerged from LA, Chicago, and the Twin Cities.
ICE is kidnapping hundreds of thousands of people, ruining their lives. This is not a situation in which non-profits should be suppressing effective tactics.

Trump supporters are claiming that whistles should be “considered a violent weapon,” that their use constitutes “interference” with immigration enforcement operations or even “assault.”
In other words—the rapid response networks are working. The whistles are working.
