I’m participating in protests outside of work, I write and call federal reps, (because I am not allowed to lobby the state reps I work for, ethics and all,) I donate to wikipedia, ACLU, and other organizations that protect our constitutional rights. I boycott companies that support Trump and right wingers, to the absolute frustration of my household. My, “we can’t shop there, we can’t buy that product,” is met with tons of eye rolling and teeth gnashing. My rebuttal is always, is saving even $1 worth our freedoms? I work for democrats in the state government, so I’m busting my balls doing my job to the best of my ability to support the people on the front line that oppose much of this fascism. I’m doing all I can, but unless someone is willing to step up and pay me a salary and benefits for further activism, I can’t leave my job. If I’m going to die for my beliefs, it will be when things devolve enough that our final choice is to take up arms. I don’t want to own a gun, but getting to that point means I need the disposable income to purchase one in the first place.
Hey I sympathize. But income means nothing when the despot owns all your political resources. If the fascist GOP have all the guns, and you don’t, I am sorry you’re ill prepared to combat your enemies.
As an anarchist, I’ve had to fight tooth and nail to protect my comrades. We lost a lot of good people too, doing good work. And the 🇺🇲 has killed them, one by one. There are times I feel hopeless too, but I think about my kids, and that of others, and envision a future they shouldn’t be oppressed, or raped. It reminds me everyday I must fight for others, and never give up on liberty (the true word).
So I urge you to take time, rethink your strategies, and look up the actually strategies that liberated us from British Monarchism. Then the French ones, Spanish ones, etc., to now Brazil, Nepal, Thailand, Taiwan, Mexico, Indonesia, etc…
I pray you see their successes, and practice them.
PugJesus 🧵 seems eager to help. DM him, since he’s 🇺🇲. I am not.

Ah, yes, the well-known ongoing US war against Japanese anarchists.
Again, an incident of rape by an American that is prosecuted by Japanese courts. The idea that that is some sort of evidence of a war against Japanese anarchists is lunacy.
That you posted a link to the same incident with three different sources to make it appear like you were presenting different incidents is also quite pathetic.

Is this an admission you’re unaware of 🇺🇲 abductions of 🇯🇵 civs, or blatant denial?
Linking to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1995_Okinawa_rape_incident , wherein American soldiers were prosecuted in Japanese court over a rape they committed, as proof of the US waging war against Japanese anarchists.
Christ.
We got more, if you are willing.
But I feel you’re here to oppress actual alliance. Feel free to do whatever you feel most liberal to act on.

Fucking what.
Jesus Christ. Fuck kind of Infowars shit is this.
Now what rule did I breach?
I am being extremely civil.
Being critical of liberals, is meme worthy. Hopefully it leads to liberal acts.
