I mean, call me when he busts a move. I don't know what to tell you.

He's posting memes. He doesn't have the stones to do anything. He coulda replaced the head of the natl guard with loyalists and reeled them in when trump threatened military force. SHOULD have. But he's scared. He's gonna sue trump? That always fucking works right?

It all boils down to whether Newsom has the guts to say "No, and also I have my own army." And I don't think he does. He's a glorified middle manager.

Random person ducking in. It seems like 45 just declares things to be legal. The framework doesn't matter so much as who is going to say no. If this starts in CA, will the CA NG say no? Will Newsom? If TX NG is sent to CA, will Newsom call up CA NG and order them to blockade?

Dangerous and intricate work. Whos the CEO of flock?

By the end of this summer I'm afraid we may see the final death of peaceful protest as a viable concept, brought about by the violent suppression of protest. If you're abducted and sent to libya or el salvador for protesting grain prices, its the same as murder. Thats where we are at. Prepare.

Set check ins with friends. Where you are going and when you'll be overdue. If you're protesting don't stand in places a van can pull up to. If you're grabbed none of that will help you. Consider a meshtastic gps tracker concealed on your person. Consider planning how to get away from regime forces

Heavy makeup, hats, masks, and dark nondescript clothing can conceal you and your outline. As we saw w luigi its not enough. They will track u on city wide cameras. Bring changes of clothes, and find locales like a park to switch outfits in. Look 4 reversible hoodies and windbreakers to save space

Gov kidnap squads are already out there, targeting immigrants and threatening governors. If they grab you no one knows if you will ever be free again. Prepare according to your moral limitations. Here, lets focus on not getting caught in the first place.

I guess thats his way of saying he isn't gonna be the one to tell the natl guard to chase off ICE.

Is the argument that americans aren't going to learn a lesson? Unclear what the subtext of your question is.

I believe its true that society must suffer before it develops wisdom. We have seen this cycle before. That does not absolve me of my responsibilities as a moral being. This suffering is unavoidable and my actions are small in comparison, but they are significant to the people I meet.

"Aspiring?" We're three months in and he's dismantled the federal gov, and utilized the marshalls and ICE to kidnap people that speak against the regime and shut down private organizations. Why do people think we are getting out of this with a nice normal election?

You can get a plastic key pretty easy. Maybe print one

This will be used in tandem with EOs to build concentration camps. Shamelessly reposting my thing on what you need to do now, especially if you happen to be one of the government officers charged with constructing/organizing something that could easily become a death camp.

Ty for the source. I saw it on the guardian. Unable to do a lot of surfing at my current location. I don't even care if I get reposted, I just want people to know they can resist with a dollar store notepad. If this devolves into death camps, we need positional data, not prisoner id numbers.

If you don't have acces, share these posts with those that can be trusted. The veil of secrecy evil people create builds the illusion nothing can be done, which builds the sense of helplessness we all feel.

YOUR JOB, if you are in their confidence, is to preserve records relating to these detentions. Locations. Detainees. Personnel staffing the location. Any data of value. Protect yourself and preserve the information. It can be acted on later but it will disappear if you let it.

5/ Sadly, it will take many of us watching a loved one killed or sent to torture camps, before we take up knives.

4/ the reality of dictatorship. Like a beaten child grown to adulthood they know the aggressor only understands violence. Americans haven't seen a city carpetbombed or a revolt or a despot putting people against a wall in over 150 years.

3/ has been kidnapped or killed. (And let's use the right terms, because the current regime is criminal. Kidnapping. Murder. Battery.) The world faults Americans right now for not rioting, not understanding the price, or the fact that europeans riot because their culture has already passed through-

2/ wanted to escape france. They were constantly looking for a way out. The idea of a noble partisan fighting for freedom, much like a soldier fighting for the flag, is more of a propaganda piece than reality. Resistance fighters are in it because they are a targeted minority, or someone they love -

How does one do that?

If FL police are useless, the Tate bros must be observed and tracked by private citizens. If your kid disappears in FL at the same time and city as the Tates, we ought to know which door to knock on.
comment in response to post
They do, in some cases, but the usa has spent over a hundred years carefully curating a culture of nonresistance. I could write too much on this. Short version there is too much fear to truly resist. We will see what happens when real pain starts.

Gas prices will skyrocket. We are talking dead elderly people all over the state. Esp if social sec. is gutted.

The first part of any white supremacist fan fiction is the dismantling of the fed gov. That is so they can do things like this without interference.
comment in response to post
There isn't a word in there about how many city police always use SWAT on drug charges and are cleared to use explosives to breech. Need to know info. I appreciate their efforts and lexipol was obv vulnerable. We need targeted info on management shitbirds, such as police chiefs, payroll people, etc.

Will you PLEASE ask them why they aren't considering the use of force to restore order? PLEASE?

When you spend too long living by someone elses rule you become tame. You lose the ability to live in the wild. You fear disobedience and abandonment more than you fear the whip, because disobedience represents the unknown. Never trust someone afraid to walk into the desert alone.

DOGE is their own weapon. How many right wingers occupy DEI positions? Or cheat on their time card? Or just aren't necessary at all? Would an investigation do their dept any good? Probably not. Nazis have a way of assigning guilt after picking a target.

For a modern version, look at gaza or ukraine. Declare their land yours. Declare there are violent elements in the population. Imprison or butcher the population under the guise of eliminating gangs, terrorists, whatever. Once the land is empty, build a hotel.
