Cops used 83,000 cameras to track a single abortion patient — on her abuser’s tip.

This is fascism. At your door. At every door.

Organizing works. Online and off.

Thanks to @hopenothate.org.uk and 34,000 friends, the Neo-Nazi music festival ‘Resurrection 4’ was canceled in September.

It would’ve been “the biggest white power gig in Britain in 10 years”…

And this is why we host the ‘Ant!fa Panels’ — to provide *solutions*

We have to act while there is still time. We don't want to get to the end of the "And there was no one left to stand for me" part of the poem.

“We show up at protests and just let ourselves get beat up for the optics, as opposed to actually doing tactics that might help us stop these machines” - Eric King

If you’re attending the No Kings, 50501, or anti-“ICE Protests”? Be prepared.

If we were living under fascism, none of you would be here daring to post things. You'd be erasing your social media accounts and keeping your head down; you'd know that peacocking your faux-bravery on a network would expose you to being disappeared.
You have no idea what "fascism" really means.

Did you or a friend or a family member get attacked by Trump’s brown shirts this weekend? I’d like to hear about it and maybe do something about it. My email is jchavez [at] ojrc [dot] info. Please put “Seeking Legal Advice re: ICE Building” in subject line. All inquiries are confidential.

This is pervasive on TikTok too. Selling Bill Watterson legos and PBS merch that zero go to either.

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.
