I blinked through my tears because I was seeing Nazis carry off a Jew.
What an abhorrent nightmare!
Oh wait, I'm fully conscious and that's happening in the USA NOW!
We have to resist against the narcissistic administration so felon tRump and immigrant f-elon can be dethroned!
He’s actually asked for people to donate to Trevor Project instead of giving him any money! I’ve followed him for years and he’s always been a good one!
Silicon Valley is a libertarian’s dream. It was never a liberal Mecca. It was just performative nonsense. Google got with the anti-DEI policies in a week, no pushback at all.
Huntington Beach is not Silicon Valley. HB is a decades-long bastion of hard-right conservativism that turned right-wing MAGA nuts when all the other hard-right conservatives did same.
I’d say 75 percent of it is Dem but it’s such a gigantic state that you have several red and even deep red areas, such as San Diego County (heavily military), Orange County (home of Nixon and Reagan), Centrwl
valley (farmers and ranchers) and a few others
Huntington beach has always been an ultra conservative place. A lot of socal has always been conservative, and while overall it's trended more blue over time, HB is where we keep all our ex nazis.
I commented support on the MSN article the day it came out. At last look, it was nearly 4:1 positive reactions to negative ones. It was around 109 likes to 28 dislikes. 1 comment was very negative, 3 were positive and the negative one got flak. Those numbers give me hope.
Silicon Valley, Marin County, San Francisco, far bigger disgraces. That is where the big money and power are, and they will get in line, or already have. CA isn’t going to save anyone or anything.
They aren't charging him for what he said, but for what he did afterwards: approach the podium where the city council members were sitting. He did it on purpose because if he'd just made a speech the press would have ignored it.
It's only "resistance" if you inconvenience the powers that be when you get arrested. Otherwise, it's just you giving money you can't afford to be out to the local government.
Keep protesting until all Congress realizes the being "primaried" is not the problem they will be facing.
Make it clear that all the those who broke their OATH to support and defend the Constitution of the United States will be removed from the Congress that they are *not* serving.
And I still don't know what they arrested him for. I mean, I understand their true reason, but what was the given reason?
He stood there and held a little speech.
We are past the point of like and dislike we have moved into a time of action and reaction. Your ability to like and dislike are being stripped away from you as we speak
That’s great, dude, but stop using that imagery in self styled, left-wing propaganda posters unless you eventually want to get punched by someone in the face in real life.
The use of iconography by the Nazi party was EXTREEMLY calculated. I have studied Art history for over 30 years, yes that symbolism WAS used by the Nazis very effectively I intend to do the same to a different end.
Councilman Chad Williams justification for keeping the racist maga slogan by placing it next to texts of other presidents is the epitome of asinine idolatry. Is he really that incompetent?
Placing “Sieg Heil” next to “I have a dream” does not legitimize the former, it highlights its blatant bigotry
We The People should be marching to DC with the 1A of the Constitution in our left hand and the 2A of the Constitution in our right hand to remind Felon Trump in the White House and Republicans in Congress that they work for The People.
Being removed for saying the truth show what these people truly support and stand for. It is evidence supporting his position and the very thing he spoke out against.
At the same time, Vance about Europe: “Insulting someone is not a crime, and criminalising speech will put a real strain on European-American relations."
You can't make this up.
We need to form, in Masses of us the people's, of the country that we love and cherish, >> Show out in Maltitudes << >>in a serious show of unity and resistance. To "Reject the Evel" that is blanketing the country!
Eh, it was a silly technicality for disrupting the meeting and moving to where the council presides, which the right wingers on the council (which is all of them) consider a threat and violation to their safety. It’s baloney.
And according to Kluwe, a council member contacted him later and said in the past when people have done that the police removed them but didn't charge them with anything.
As soon as I read the headline I knew it would be Kluwe. He’s always been a totally stand up dude. I know he doesn’t play for them anymore, but he’s the reason the Vikings took my number 2 spot.
I posted this 3 days ago. Kluwe is a former UCLA and NFL punter. When he was in the NFL he spoke up about gay marriage rights before the Supreme Court ruling on the matter. The guy is legit.
"They eat fear. That is why it is so important for us to remain focused. Chaos agents want you to spiral. Stay focused. Stay disciplined. Stay clear-eyed. The best way to fight back is by refusing to give them what they want." Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Does he need help with bail? This is the way you resist. Get loud. Get in their face. Don’t back down. Get in the gutter with MAGAts and punch them in the throat. No more making nice.
Non-violent resistance is still possible, obstruct every move, they'll run out of enforcers fast. This sort of resistance may work and is worth a try, the alternatives are getting pretty ugly.
Individuals are weak. The only resistance that will matter will be organized and led by small groups (<150) of dedicated people who share a common vision. At the heart of any human endeavor, you'll find these. Large groups are also easy to infiltrate, sabotage, derail, bog down in litigation, etc.

I hope this guy realizes there is support for resistance and others run against the city council members to restore decency and to the place.

The 1st Amendment says they can't do this shit.
Oh that's right, 'free speech absolutist' just means "I want to be a bigot and I don't want you to tell me I can't be"
impressive that he did it in HB, though.
He stood there and held a little speech.
