Totally agree.

A note however: give #FISA 702 and the #CloudAct, using #Substack (or any other #US-based service) to talk to #activists (or about #activism) leads to their identification and profilation.

#Privacy is a requirement for #democracy and the #USA laws (and Gov's practices, even before #Trump) are incompatible with both.

So if you want to "be a warrior" yourself, or at least to support or even just to not demage activists fighting, please try to avoid compromised services, even for mundane communications like these.

Learn (and teach) tools' awareness, so that warriors can have a chance to not just fight, but to win agaist the #tyrants.

So join some #local #workingclass #organizations near you, and if not, then form them and get it touch with some local #activists and #organizers. They can help show you the way. Even if you’re not a believer in #socialist #revolution, that’s the type of work it’s going to take to enact real change, as #elected #representatives will only be able to enact their agenda insofar as they have a well #organized movement behind them." ~ Fellow Traveler

you know, these people who only care about #trump now that he is killing brown people: something went wrong with you looong before it came to that.

you just let brown people deal with it. not your fucking problem, right.

well. the same they do with the climate #activists. can't these climate activists fix it, so i don't have to change until my own house burns down.

🇺🇸 PatriotFrontNews: Patriot Front is currently on the ground in Central #Texas following a devastating flood that has claimed the lives of over 100 Americans. #Activists are presently engaged in disaster relief efforts in Hunt, Texas, just outside of Camp Mystic, where dozens of young girls tragically lost their lives while attending summer camp.

Attacking the restaurant and its patrons was fucked up, bigoted hate. And also cops and courts do not solve problems. 🤷‍♂️

"Three people have been charged after 20 masked #protesters allegedly stormed a popular #Jewish #restaurant in #Melbourne on Friday night.

The group of pro-#Palestine #activists allegedly ambushed shocked diners and staff at the Miznon restaurant on Hardware Lane about 8.15pm after splitting from a larger #protest on Swanston Street.

Police allege several of them were then involved in an altercation, with chairs being thrown, tables overturned and the restaurant's glass door damaged."

Heavily armed immigration agents descend on #MacArthurPark in #LosAngeles

"Dozens of immigration agents, some on horseback, others carrying rifles in armored vehicles, swept through MacArthur Park on Monday in an extraordinary show of force at the heart of Los Angeles’ #immigrant community.

"Heavily armored #BorderPatrol officers with a fleet of white minibuses partially blocked the streets surrounding the park, which has become a source of crime and drugs in the area in the last few years. #Activists with megaphones were able to warn locals at the park before the contingent arrived, according to police sources.

"The move comes days after President Trump signed a budget that will provide a mass infusion of funds to the Department of Homeland Security to ramp up its immigration enforcement to levels unseen before in the United States. Los Angeles has become the poster child of Trump’s mass deportation plan, as more than 1,600 people have been arrested between June 6 and 22.

"The agents appeared to arrive around 10:30 a.m. after amassing at nearby locations. Once they were at the park, they were met with crowds of people screaming 'get the f— out!' and 'get out!' #MayorKarenBass also showed up to the park, which sits just west of downtown Los Angeles. Activists, who have been on high alert for weeks, appeared to be prepared to deploy lawyers to the scene.

"At some point, Assistant Chief Patrol Agent David Kim handed his cellphone to Bass. Speaking to the other person over the line she could be heard saying, 'You’re getting ready to leave? Can you leave ASAP?'

"Demonstrators began to chant, drowning out her conversation. When asked to comment, Bass said the federal immigration agents needed 'to leave and they need to leave right now, they need to leave because this is unacceptable.'

"When asked who she was talking to on the other end of the line she said it was 'the head of customs.'

"Bass handed the phone back to a U.S. Border Patrol agent. Shortly afterward, she boarded a black SUV and left the area.

"It’s unclear if anyone was arrested during the sweep.

" 'This was just one big, perverse publicity stunt,' said #RonGochez, a member of #UniónDelBarrio, an independent political organization advocating for immigrant rights and social justice. 'It was just to show force, it was just to take pictures.'

"The chaos on #WilshireBoulevard around MacArthur Park had mostly calmed by 11:30 a.m., though a few protesters and members of the news media lingered afterward.

"Mikema Nahmir, 28, said he was out for his morning walk at 11 a.m. when he saw two women running down the street yelling that '#LaMigra' was at MacArthur Park.

"Nahmir joined the group of #protesters who chased and yelled after the #military-style trucks. At one point, he said, someone from the truck shot out an #irritant toward him and another protester.

" 'L.A. is ours, this is our city,' Nahmir said. 'This is what my morning walk turned into. They’re terrorizing our neighborhood.'

"Live video from the scene Monday morning broadcast on social media showed a line of white vans that have been used to transport arrestees as well as several agents on horseback. Agents cleared the scene by 11:20 a.m. and it was not immediately clear how many people they had taken into custody.

"U.S. Border Patrol Sector Chief Greg Bovino, who has been leading the operations on the ground in Los Angeles, was present during the operation.

"Bovino, who is based near the U.S.-Mexico border along with others in the Trump administration, was sued last week by immigrant rights groups seeking to block what it calls an 'ongoing pattern and practice of flouting the #Constitution and federal law' during immigration raids. They say raids have targeted individuals based on race, lack #DueProcess and some practices are akin to #kidnapping rather than legal enforcement. A hearing is set for later this week in federal court.

"Asked for comment on whether any arrests had been made, a senior DHS official, said, 'We don’t comment on ongoing enforcement operations.' "

Today feels like a good day to remind everyone that Rosa Parks was one woman surrounded by a community of #activists.

We don’t create change alone! Big #Tech and #capitalism have forced us into individualism but that is a trap (It’s a Trap!)

The only way we defeat the #fascists is today her. #Community action is our answer.

Mars tegen politiegeweld

Malieveld, Den Haag, zondag 6 juli om 13:00 CEST

Meerdere organisatoren (bron)

📛 STOP POLITIEGEWELD TEGEN ACTIVISTEN!

Ook wij zijn woedend en diep geschokt door het extreme politiegeweld tijdens de A12-blokkade op 25 juni. Van 2 activisten werd een arm gebroken en van een andere een hand. Dit is voor vele pro-Palestina activisten die aanwezig waren helaas de zoveelste keer dat zij zulk verregaand geweld meemaken. Wij zijn een een breder patroon van onderdrukking: steeds harder optreden van politie en justitie, en het criminaliseren van vreedzame demonstraties door politici, die de politie als knokploeg voor hun eigen politieke agenda inzetten. Van Halsema tot Schouten tot het kabinet.

Wij roepen daarom op om om naar het Malieveld te komen om 6 Juli om 13:00 om te eisen dat dit geweld per direct stopt. De politie moet demonstraties faciliteren, niet criminaliseren.

We too are outraged and deeply shocked by the extreme police violence during the A12 blockade on June 25. An arm was broken from 2 activists and a hand from another. This is unfortunately yet another time for many pro-Palestine activists who were present to experience such excessive violence. We recognize a broader pattern of repression: increasingly harsh police and judicial action, and the criminalization of peaceful demonstrations by politicians, who use the police as thugs for their own political agendas. From Halsema to Schouten to the cabinet.

We therefore call on you to come to the Malieveld on July 6 at 13:00 to demand that this brutality stops immediately. The police are supposed to facilitate demonstrations, not criminalize them.
