The reality is too many are so undereducated about topics like the economy. This makes them easy marks for Russian trolls, other social media idiots who echo the same lies and grifters who tell them what they want to hear, with no intention of actually doing anything. In the end, these fools lose.
I didn't obey to begin with. I asked why, and they told me to stop asking so many questions. So I asked why. Turns out there was a reason they didn't want questions.
They can't arrest everyone for disobedience and noncompliance. Especially if the people enforcing the punishments look at the volume and decide there's a point to all of it.
Snyder's absolutely a victim of Red Scare political teachings, but every signpost he covers in On Tyranny is critical to understand. He does a good job covering the core.
Read? A huge number of Americans ("I love the poorly educated!"remember?) read at 4th-5th grade level, and plenty of people are functionally illiterate. Are you kidding me?
Sign up to be a literacy volunteer in your community. There are people who need and want help with reading.
We can all do a little to help a lot.
You can change someone’s life by helping them to read.
I completely understand the urge to tune out Politics after nearly a year of hearing about it nonstop, but that just makes it easier for them to enact the evil they're so eager to. You have to stay vigilant and keep fighting for those you care about.
THEY WILL HAVE TO KILL ME BECAUSE I WILL CONTINUE TOI SHOUT HOW THE "CHRISTIANS" IN THIS NATION HAVE TURNED THEIR BACKS ON JESUS FOR LESS THAN 30 PIECES OF SILVER, THEY DID IT BECAUSE OF HATRED, PREJUDICE, POWER AND GREED.
The way I see it, I'm only following the laws that promote peace. The other rules are made to be broken in my eyes. I will love my neighbour as I have always strived to do.
Yep, make them fight for every inch, and even if you have to comply, remember that malicious compliance exists. The letter of the law is more important than the spirit.
Most importantly, rob the joy from their maliciousness. Delay, obstruct, inquire, protest. Make them lose so much steam that they don't have the energy to enjoy the horrible things they do. There is a plethora of legal means for robbing speed and efficiency from government processes.
Not watching their shit any longer. Wasn’t really watching any of it before either.
No views for them. All of them. Networks, CNN, MSNBC, local news especially. They’re just spreading propaganda anyway.
Midterms start now. On 11/26 there’s an election in Mississippi for state Supreme Court, a non partisan position, Kitchens is a Dem vs Branning who’s GOP and believes in the “traditional values of faith, family and freedom”, a constitutional conservative.
I deactivated my X account, but not because of the history. I am not willing to provide any more eyeballs to that platform and I'm sure as hell not buying a subscription
I switched to Threads and stopped using Xitter last year, but just finally deactivated my account this morning. Everyone needs to get off of there. It's not a safe place to organize against fascism, nor is Meta. I just joined Bluesky this morning too. I regret not doing so sooner.
I deactivated mine as a fuck you to the bitch in charge of X.
He’s occupied my city.
He built a factory for cybertrucks. Then laid off 2500 employees via E-MAIL!! Fucker. He’s a waste of oxygen.
I just un-installed the app & left everything; not staying there anymore!! Honestly, I should have done this long ago when Musk started hooking for that human devil!!
I was worried that I was going to have to get rid of my online queer friends out of fear that government tracking could catch on and label us all "sex offenders" or something.
But my friends assured me to NEVER do this, as it would be me throwing away something useful.
We're not resisting, we're DEFYING. Resisting implies we have something to defend. That means we have something to lose. Defying means we KNOW we have nothing to lose except those holding us down.

Centrists protect billionaires.
Eat the rich.
Never nominate a woman for president- fuckit! Id rather a decent man president than a flame thrower
The 'new rules' are that polling results are just the time for Closing Arguments, and she rolled over and showed her belly, instead of refuting.

No quarter for the Fourth Reich.

We aren't them. When we stop working or 'accidentally' ruin the data, it's catastrophic
We can actually stop tyranny with resistance, because we have the common sense and understanding to make it work.
Even if they hurt.
That's why we have ethics, because without it, science and academics would be allowed to do anything, but we...
We have our self control.

But only the minimum acceptance.
(can't recall where this quote came from or I'd credit it. Googling was no help).
This isn't about the rest of us, clearly they have enough numbers to back up a fascist government in a meaningful way exactly like the Nazis did.
