The fake video, set to the song “Danger Zone” by Kenny Loggins, shows the plane dropping a brown liquid resembling feces onto the heads of protesters, who appeared to be gathered in a city.

In short, Republicanism is about shitting on America

 

Indonesia is one of the few countries still building new coal power plants, the most polluting sources of power. Chinese companies are playing a large role despite a pledge by Beijing to halt such support.

To secure Washington’s access to El Salvador’s most notorious prison, the secretary of state made an extraordinary offer to President Nayib Bukele.

...

The deal would give Bukele possession of individuals who threatened to expose the alleged deals his government made with MS-13 to help achieve El Salvador’s historic drop in violence, officials said. For the Salvadoran president, a return of the informants was viewed as critical to preserving his tough-on-crime reputation. It was also a key step in hindering an ongoing U.S. investigation into his government’s relationship with MS-13, a gang famous for displays of excessive violence in the United States and elsewhere.

When a US President posts an AI video which literally shows him shitting on the country, it's a real sign that he's lost support.

The problem is that by the time there is a trial, the person facing bogus charges has already had to spend a night or days in jail, deal with lost time at work or school, etc. We need juries to do something like return treason verdicts against ICE officers when they push bogus charges

Yeah. I have yet to see a protester bring their own tear gas

Im aware. The Guard did in a few Republican-controlled places last time too. But what they did was stand around instead of massacring the crowds. And that's a good place to bem

What we want is to create a broad understanding of popular support for antifascism so that the military takes the side of the people. A huge public rally is part of that

LoL

I'm doing something and getting others to join me, taking advantage of a public low-risk event to get others started down the same path. You're sitting around complaining.

That's well before the Nazis had power

I have to disagree here: symbolic actions are how you get people hooked on action. Big ones like this have a significant bandwagon effect. Its very much a good use of a couple hours

The Germans didn't have any kind of huge protest movement. They executed people for doing things like holding a private dinner in honor of Einstein.

Big protests are a key part of how we avoid that situation.

I'll happily welcome anybody who flips because they recognize how awful Republican policy is. That's important if we are going to have a durable majority

The brainwashing is much harder when its your own community turning out

They care enough that they're trying to talk it down. Having a big chunk of the population turn out to tell off a dictator is a key step in how they lose power

Symbolic actions lead to practical ones — My friend group has been canvassing for Yes on California Prop. 50. Making popular support visible gets more people on your side, so we are all taking a couple hours to attend the rallly.
