This weekend we say #nokings. And we've got #friendseverywhere. Trump & #FossilFueledFascists say we're terrorists, that we hate America, & we're too old to matter. They're wrong - except that many if not most of us are, in fact, anti-fascist.

Though we are all occupied with resisting authoritarianism in the US right now, the physics of a warming atmosphere isn't stopping. We have to fight fascism AND prevent a fossil fuel driven collapse of the biosphere. Support us at @srti.bsky.social in this one-day fund-raiser, if you can!

Anyone catch our BOYCOTT CHEVRON banner hanging over I5 today in Portland? @srti.bsky.social & @xrpdx.bsky.social are there to spread the word that Chevron provides a majority of power to Israel and profits greatly from Palestinian genocide.

#BoycottChevron #BDS #FreePalestine
Three scientists standing on a freeway overpass bridge wearing labcoats. The labcoats are decorated with logos and messaging from Scientist Rebellion. One has their back to the camera and raised fist. Another wears a tshirt saying "Let Gaza Live" and is holding a sign that says "Starvation is a WAR CRIME - CHEVRON complicit in Genocide". Behind them on the chainlink fence is a Palestinian flag and a poster that says "together we have POWER, Boycott Chevron". You can also see the canvas back of a banner facing oncoming traffic that says BOYCOTT CHEVRON. Chevron supplies 70% of Israeli power, thus enabling the genocide of Palestinians (in addition to wrecking the climate). This banner in Portland OR was part of a day-long action involving anti-Chevron banners over Interstate 5 from California to Washington state.

Wells Fargo is the only major U.S. bank to back out of its 2030 & 2050 climate commitments. It is also suppressing union efforts at its branches, scheming to privatize USPS and is rolling back DEI initiatives on top of a long history of discriminatory lending.

Wells Fargo is a #climatecriminal

It's no longer a question of if authoritarianism comes to America; now it's just a question of how bad it gets, and how long it lasts.

It's here. We can get rid of it if we fight together.
