insisting on calling every mass day of protest or one-day boycott a "general strike" is not the move. it's good to see people rallying around the cause, it matters, but if you want to be part of a large-scale labor action that shuts down the gears of capital, start by unionizing your workplace!!!

"The question before us is not whether the U.S. is 'turning into' something else. The question is whether we are finally willing to tell the truth about how power has always worked here — and what it costs to keep pretending otherwise."

“This Is Not America” Is the Most Dangerous Lie We Keep Telling Ourselves
The idea that large-scale state violence and repression are foreign to US soil is a dangerous fiction.

TRANS GIRLS WHO AREN'T ON PROGESTERONE:
progesterone is part of the hormone set of cis women and it probably should be part of yours, too. demand it from your provider. low P levels in cis women can lead to mood issues, anxiety, and depression! sound familiar? you're basically in menopause.

not having prog for a week has reconfirmed me in my belief that every trans woman should at least try it and the way it is withheld from standard care is genuinely malicious negligence on the behalf of healthcare providers

Signal is still your safest bet.
You should always assume feds are listening in.
You should *not* switch to some new exciting app that someone is pushing.
And you should still organize.

All the traits that you have been taught to value and look for in special individuals - courage, intelligence, strength - are actually collective traits. There is no genius or hero coming to save us from our problems. We solve them together or not at all. Socialism or barbarism.
I have never witnessed such a spiderweb of collective action, just average everyday people showing up. Not the heroism we’ve been sold by the movies but collective heroism, a fabric of care and resistance to fascism.

Another question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.

Essentially, what stops abductions is when crowds outnumber the masked kidnappers. When people aggressively follow ICE with whistles and horns, crowds are ready to show up. If they show up fast enough, ICE leaves and a family is not broken. (People here understand the stakes).

"As labor leader Big Bill Haywood said over a century ago, 'If the workers are organized, all they have to do is to put their hands in their pockets and they have got the capitalist class whipped.' "
Today is the day. Right now hundreds of Minnesota businesses and institutions are shut down. Thousands of people are refusing to work. There’s a massive picket at the airport. Minnesota’s resistance to ICE today is changing the tenor our fight against fascism.
