I think some people have trouble seeing fascism as anything other than 1940s Germany.
But I think 'people going to a comic convention needing to have a plan in case the government's goons show up to disappear people' is a pretty good demonstration of what it can look like in 2025.

If you see ICE or Border Patrol agents while attending San Diego Comic-Con, know your rights and exercise them.

just a reminder that only water goes in your eyes, don’t wear contacts to a protest if you can help it, hot showers will hurt like hell if you have mace or gas residue on your skin. turn off face ID on your phone. pick a buddy & never leave their side. if detained, ask for a lawyer & then shut up.

Both police and Gavin Newsom with a straight face push conspiracy theories of "professional protesters" who "go from one unrest to the other," while hundreds of literal military troops are being shipped into a city to shoot weapons at working-class people standing up for their neighbors.

Lmao someone on Reddit brought to my attention that DuPage county took all their sales tax revenue intended for transportation and spent it on cops and now they’re panicking because the updated usage requirements in the new bill are going to defund their sheriff’s department.

You don’t need to prove to strangers on the internet that you have correct politics. And the people demanding you prove it might be Feds trying to get you to say something that you will regret saying later.

Stating the obvious here, but it's unambiguously good to dox anyone associated with ICE or CBP.

ICE dragged a mother from her home in Massachusetts—clinging to her baby—without showing a warrant or ID.
When neighbors demanded proof, ICE sneered, “We don’t have to show you anything.”
That’s not law enforcement. That’s state-sponsored kidnapping.
This is fascism & it’s terrifying.

This seems like a big deal: The NYPD shared a Palestinian Columbia protester's sealed arrest information with ICE, which promptly detained her and whisked her to a Texas jail. The NYPD claims, without offering evidence, that this doesn't violate NYC sanctuary city laws: apnews.com/article/nypd...

Every time a politician says "Israel has a right to defend itself" with respect to the Palestinian people, know that this is an absolute lie under international law. Under a hostile occupation, international law *explicitly* reserves that right to the occupied people
You’ve been conditioned to believe that Palestinian resistance is terrorism—and that defending it means endorsing every misstep by any Palestinian. That bar isn’t just unfair—it’s propaganda. And we don’t hold anyone else to it.

Trump did this in 2020 btw while he assassinated Michael Reinoehl. some of us tried to warn about it but as soon as Biden won there was no real desire among elected Dems to hold anyone accountable for stuff like that
yeah i think the President has discovered that he can deputize whomever he wants as a US Marshal and that any member of federal law enforcement can technically enforce any law
I also have questions about the arresting officers at Columbia. They didn’t act like trained, American law enforcement to me. Way too casual, interesting syntax, and of course the refusal to say what agency they were from, or their names.

Trans/nb people in Iowa: reach out to us, we’re happy to offer smaller/private classes or information packets for firearms education.
The Iowa legislature just became the first in modern history to repeal a statutory civil rights law by removing protections for gender identity first passed in 2007. They have legalized discrimination against trans people in housing, healthcare, and employment.
This is a campaign of eradication.
