A thing press institutions REALLY need to internalize is that 1000x more people will see the headline than read the article. If the headline leaves a false impression, but the article sets it straight, it doesn’t matter. You are spreading misinformation.

1) Once you start seriously talking "deporting" (that is: forcibly exiling/imprisoning/disappearing) citizens, you are unequivocally fascists &, thus, the baddies. 2) fuck you to any &every single person who said that people concerned about the rise of fascism in the US were overreacting. And 3)…

Watters really has an extensive list of things that either make you more or less of a man, and it seems like a good question to ask WHY he has this long, very detailed list with him at all times.

My tl;dr: - no demographic is a monolith - more people have intersectional concerns than are obvious & you don't know which of those guides their choices - purity tests are foolish when the opposition is full of Christofascists who want us in camps - don't be a dick to helpers 💜

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Improbably, this program is still up and running—I emailed a request on 3/21 and I just got a FedEx notif to expect a delivery from HHS on Monday! Tl,dr—if you have neighbors, colleagues, service workers, etc, who’ll help take 300 (or more!) Covid tests off your hands, HHS will send ’em. For free!

A shorter version of my thread: for chrissakes can we pay attention to what fascism does instead of what it says? No, Trump isn’t trying stupidly and failing to revive U.S. industry. He’s trying quite effectively to burn it down so he can rule the ashes. Seriously. That’s the plan.

I sure hope the next time there's an election the Democrats' messaging is less "America needs a strong Republican Party" and more "these corrupt idiots have driven the country off a cliff every single time they've gotten power in living memory."

Also, please memorize this: "I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT." That, "am I free to leave?", and identifying yourself in stop-and-ID states are the only things you should ever say to police. Ever.

I used to tell student organizers that one thing they had going for them was "everybody loves students." It used to be that criticism of student protest was typically good-natured, even friendly. That's no longer true, and "Free Speech Warriors" telling endless lies is a big reason why.
