Modern tech is inhospitable to the kind of stubborn bullshit-despising hackers that for generations used that laziness and spite to get shit done.

Alex Pretti's gun is like Renee Good's car: irrelevant to the central fact that they were murdered by ICE. ICE wants us to debate whether Pretti should have been carrying because that avoids the central fact. Pro-carry, anti-carry--that has as much to do w/ his murder as his fashion choices. Zero.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

All of the policing around organizers’ tactics are rooted in the ideology of the “perfect victim,” which…
- Is full of contradictions, making it impossible to be a perfect victim
- Blames victims for their oppressors’ violence
- Fails to recognize that our oppressors just lie anyway
- Is full of contradictions, making it impossible to be a perfect victim

The problem, the challenge to us, is that the important role of collecting evidence of fascist violence and war crimes—a necessity for pursuing real justice—has been detourned into a metapolitical weapon for normalizing the depiction of casual mass deaths as a cultural precursor to a fascist order.

ICE took the flower man in Echo Park 40 minutes ago. He’s at this corner every day. I’ve bought flowers from the man and woman here for anniversaries and birthdays. Lemmy loves to smell them whenever we walk by in the mornings. I was just at the street corner 15 minutes before it happened. Fuck.

You don’t have to listen to me. You can go right ahead being paranoid if you want. But I’ve been doing this work for decades and I’ve seen a lot of shit, and I can tell you exactly why that safety measure you’re proposing will fail. Assuming what you say is public and acting accordingly will not

It’s actually really liberating from the grip of paranoia to assume you’re being read or listened to and act accordingly. If you assume what you say is public, if you don’t want someone to see it or hear it, don’t say it or do it. But if you do say it, say it with your whole chest

actually communicating “I’m here and I’m working for you and here’s how” is an aspect of governing that’s neglected by far too many people who think the work speaks for itself (or, frankly, don’t have the communication chops Zohran does)
this is how you combat the forces that want to make you fail

All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.
