All variants of fascism are concerned with the management of perception, but this administration's specific brand of fascism is especially performative.
They focus on intimidating and demoralizing because it is what they know best—and because it is not clear that they could win an actual fight.

It's Safer in the Front
Faced with intensifying repression and state violence, there is an understandable inclination to seek safety by avoiding confrontation. But this is not always the most effective strategy.

Jury nullification has a radical history in the United States.
In the 1850s, juries across the North repeatedly acquitted defendants accused of violating the Fugitive Slave Act.
Today, when all can see the authoritarian trajectory of the state, this tool should be at everyone's disposal.
