i'm concerned that i see number 1, 2, 4, and 5 in progress, but number 3 feels opaque. how far along are they in securing organized, armed loyalists? some of it has been a stochastic effort over years, sure, but what's happening this week?

Nazi salute at a conference in downtown Boise.

Hostile Government Takeover It's a bop

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

Also make it known in your circles if you can offer folks free photocopying. It's more expensive than ever. ESPECIALLY color copies. If you can liberate resources from your workplace for ex, let people in your close circles know that you'll make copies for them for free.

people were hoping trump would feel threatened by elon and break up with him, but trump is lazy and selfish and would rather sit around on the internet while elon's staff do the work of crashing the nation. trump is the symbolic monarch, elon is his CEO

If you're represented by a Republican and you care about the post office, how about flyering outside your local post office. Tell folks about the administration's plan to dismantle USPS and tell them to contact their GOP reps. Include local telephone numbers on the fliers. bsky.app/profile/sylv...

In 2017, centrists and liberals told antifascist activists that the institutions would hold and the State would preserve basic democratic rights. Now the country is being hollowed out by literal billionaires making Hitler salutes. This should be on the cover of every newspaper.

reminder that this is their plan & they are moving quickly: 1. Install a CEO Dictator 2. Purge the Bureaucracy 3. Build a Loyalist Army 4. Dismantle Democratic Institutions 5. Seize Media and Information Control to Maintain Power www.thenerdreich.com/reboot-elon-...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

great news!

Seattle #TeslaTakedown They closed the store.

Cool & helpful mental health zines from therapist Kevin in Anchorage! alaskan.social/@feelnotes/1...

good morning! it’s a great day to fight fascists!

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.

Wrote a little something in the mighty @rollingstone.com about #TeslaTakedown. In anticipation of our upcoming second weekend of protests! Join or create an event for ANY day and ANY country at Teslatakedown.com. Download our flyers and background to get informed and get involved!

In my first piece for @theguardian.com, I told the story about how a Portlander used social media to spark a movement that’s sweeping the nation… and why a similar movement in Portland over a decade prior didn’t have the same reach.

In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

As Ted O'Brien recently said - we can "learn a lot" from the Koreans ... www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

self soothing by closing my eyes and envisioning the day that elon musk eventually dies and how happy that will make hundreds of millions of people

People will collapse Tesla, people will hold Musk and lackeys accountable, people will push leaders to act, people will jam up trumps plans, people will find courage and energy to fight

sure seems like mass direct action is needed in DC *before* musk has remade the military and solidified his national security systems

Union expects at least 1,378 Alaska federal employees in probationary status to be fired, reports Corinne Smith of @alaskabeacon.com: alaskabeacon.com/2025/02/21/u...

Again. We need 20 of her.

Important: You Can’t Post Your Way Out of Fascism. "Authoritarians and tech CEOs share the same goal: To keep us locked in an eternal doom-scroll instead of organizing against them." www.404media.co/you-cant-pos...

I hate certain convos because people get to restate the problem for traction/engagement purposes but have fuck all to say about the whole "doing" part. Please start calling it out when you see it. We know the problems. Some of you built an entire business reiterating them. Now what nigga?

A good point to acknowledge all the work that Tom has done on this record (for a brand new, un-focus grouped band and all).

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

reminder that grassroots wins against powerful entities do happen. lessons from successful campaigns: - keep the pressure up & your issue in the news constantly - make it easy for others to make informed contact with politicians on your behalf - identify decision makers, do not stop pressuring them

#Hemp shiv + 'roman' c̶e̶m̶e̶n̶t̶ lime. This is light work compared to normal masonry. I really don't understand why climate 'neutral' building blocks are not a common thing yet. #carbonstorage www.solution-biosys.fr

can we do this for USFS staff? we need to steward and care for the fish and trails and forests and backcountry cabins of the Tongass National Forest! Can #AKLeg pass a resolution to support our USFS employees?

If the Democrats are an "opposition" party, why did they confirm ALL of Trump's nominees? Why are liberals allowed to turn their laziness and complacency into some virtuous stand? Why do communists get accused of just wanting to "watch the world burn" when liberals let the bad guys do it?

It’s actually not common and if you can’t research and write your own copy without relying on generative software gtfo of the industry

They are deliberately crossing the red lines, in order to make the unacceptable commonplace and, eventually, acceptable again.

There’s something happening in this country.

UBI, Free Healthcare, Condemning Israel, ending the Concentration Camps, some sort of solution to Landlords,

BREAKING: In a 5-4 win for unemployed workers, the Supreme Court allows their lawsuit to proceed alleging that Alabama is illegally delaying their benefits. Kavanaugh writes the majority, joined by the Dem appointees and Chief Justice. Thomas writes the dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Love the idea of #Project2029 as a way to get through the next 4 years. We shouldn’t stop thinking about better systems for our world. Universal PK. Well-supported education. Universal Healthcare. Amazing public transportation systems. Affordable housing.
