People who put people in chains don’t deserve politeness. End of discussion.

Throwing rocks at men in armor with guns hardly seems a fair fight. But it's the same thing as Gaza "they were threatening me with rocks, I had to kill them to protect myself"

Condemn them? I'm cheering for them.

Those who attack should know there will be entirely justifiable resistance at the same level.

As a woman, if an unidentified masked man tried to grab me, I would defend myself with what ever is available to use. And hopefully those good people around me will help.

Right?! Being attacked or grabbed is a daily reality for women. I went to the store yesterday and I tried to load my car as fast as I could! I now have to worry about being kidnapped by law enforcement as well. I used to be a pro law enforcement person because I knew that most are there to protect and help. But now I am terrified in my hometown because I don’t know if they will do the right thing should someone try to hurt me. This is insane! I have to have faith that regular people like myself will help me should I need it. It is sad that I cannot trust those that we employ to protect us. We are living in crazy times!

Haven't read this yet, but right off the bat I'm loving the (No.) in the sub headline

Ask people who condemn the resistors if they would also condemn those who resisted the brown shirts in 1930s Germany.

I accept it JP. I've been writing and warning against it too. Now that it's here and expanding logarithmically every day, I've shared a post about the many ways folks participate in the resistance. I hope you don't mind if I share it here: https://open.substack.com/pub/sarahtowle/p/our-basic-rights-are-under-attack?r=464pd&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

Not a bit, and if I see you do it, I saw nothing.

Probably won’t be joining you, though - throwing rocks at people with guns seems unhealthy.

I've got a Romanian SKS, a 9mm Glock and hundreds of rounds of ammo for each waiting to greet any ICE agent I see in my community. And I make no guarantees that I might not just shoot on sight!

Democrat policy regarding labor has not altered one iota of a degree since the Civil War. They have shown who they are; now it is time to believe them.

Thanks for this. And yes, it's the playbook most up front in Palestine and - crucial to take on - it's the.same people. Same players shuttling between the occupation encampment in Palestine and the US. US police are trained in zionist tactics of violence and terror, US politicians, billionaires, and corporations are aligned. What is flooding the streets of the US now is Zion Inc. Just to understand that the danger is way worse than it is now. Look at Gaza. Look at Gaza. Everything happening there is the playbook starting now on US citizens, workers, families. You are fighting for your life, at least. Get tactical. When even the democrats have given up on pr, you know that they're ready to treat people outside their "chosen" bubble the way they've always thought of them: disposable; cattle. Know this enemy, react accordingly, organise.
