The weird, often whitewashed way the civil rights movement is taught (or not taught) seemed to convince a lot of people that nonviolence was met with nonviolence, instead of you know, dogs, hoses, beatings, death, etc

They keep saying they’re implementing martial law because of violence by protesters provoking them — “insurrection.” It’s a lie. They’re doing this to create terror, like they’re doing now by coming to Pasadena & hijacking a hotel. There’s no violence happening in Pasadena.

I think this really stems from the belief you can make all the right decisions from the top at the start of a project and have success. You can hire the right people and green light the perfect idea. When it reality is all just an insane messy gamble.

The path to the end of Roe V. Wade was paved with abortion providers being killed, and clinics being bombed and set on fire.

You have to know how much money is coming in and how much you can realistically ask people to do with that amount of money. It’s a business, you gotta ask yourself how it works in the long term, without the thought of immediate success. Limit or denounce work on spec or favors if you can.

Every now and then there's a "studio" that pops up that is DESPARATE to make a "hit". Not money. Not even a means to pay their workers. Just something that generates online CLOUT. Its an easy trap to fall into and without good money feeding it all in the first place, its a recipe for real harm.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple. Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

White folks watched a bunch of white folks sack the Capitol and then most of them be pardoned by the head of the white identity party and now we're supposed to listen to other white people pontificate about non-violence...

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids. Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

BREAKING: please, everyone, turn on local news. there is NOTHING going on in LA. Its over, the protest broke up hours ago. Local news helicopters are trolling for trouble and there's none. Just some LAPD/LASD road blocks. If they 'send the Guard' now, its just because they really really want to.

For anyone showing up to the protests around LA this weekend, please bring supplies. Paper towels, milk, water, snacks, and any extra masks. Wear protective gear like helmets, goggles, full face protection, and heat resistant gloves. The tear gas canisters are hot and will burn

Undocumented immigrants pay almost $100 billion in taxes each year. The top 1% evade $163 billion in taxes each year. Stop pretending that immigrants are the ones taking advantage of taxpayers.

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

The big thing to do if you’re not on ground is contact your reps and ask if they’re paying attention, if they think they’re on the right side of all this.

Once again, the citizens of Los Angeles and its activism are proving more substantive than many credit them for. Reminds me of similar efforts in 2017 blocking deportation of Muslim residents. How could the admin not imagine an even larger response this time around?

The fact they chose California as the flash point is also an indicator that they don't think these things through LA has like 4M+ people. Sending every single ICE officer is ~20K, LAPD is 9K, LASD is 10K. Going in at 100:1 manpower – leaving zero bodies for literally anything else – is foolish 1/

If we had a functioning fourth estate, maybe someone could force Trump to explain why he let a "big-time drug addict" run half the government (or force Musk to explain why he introduced his children to a pedophile)
