It’s driving me a little insane to see all this “protester” lingo.
Like yea there are protests..
But if masked, armed thugs invade your neighborhood and terrorize your community, standing against that is not “protesting”.
That’s an attempt to maintain safety. The government made itself the danger.

Yeah it's called israeli culture
We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

Even when they show signs of weakness or forced regret, we must not give an inch. Authoritarian governments still respond to public opinion, which is why sustained pressure matters. We have to keep making clear that these thuggish actions are unconscionable and will not be tolerated. Don’t let up.

People always thinking I’m kidding, but I am being so serious when I say I am committed to not buying anything else with unnecessary tech in it unless it’s unavoidable. Not appliances, not a car, not a watch. None of that shit.

The agents who beat and then killed Alex Pretti after they took his gun - they were wearing body cams.
That did not stop them.
Unmasking them might. Not every time. But it might stop some of them.

I appreciate those out there protesting at great risk to their lives however i think the nation needs to grind this economy to a dead stop.
It's something everyone can do safely. No spending on ANYTHING but absolute necessities.
I understand some shut ins can not do this but very many of us can.

Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Ezra Klein: “Do you believe Christianity to be more true than other religions?”
James Talarico: “I believe Christianity points to the truth. I also think other religions of love point to the same truth. I see them as circling the truth about the universe — and that truth is inherently a mystery.”

DHS is doing everything they know will make confrontations with the public worse and more likely to result in uses of force and bigger protests to create a pretext for deploying the military. That's the end game here. Trump said it himself just this morning.

Tesla stock dropped to 304. It had been at 475 before Elon Musk went DOGE. I think Elon Musk needs to send a list of five things he's done to improve Tesla's fortunes to shareholders, and if he fails to respond by midnight, shareholders should consider that his resignation from the Board.
