I know it's probably photoshop but I want to believe I'm living amongst people that see what's going on.

Boycotts traditionally require a lot of coordination to make them work. They require:

• a target (who is supposed to change behavior)
• a demand (so the target knows what they have to do to get the boycott to stop)
• boycotters (a lot of people who used to be customers refusing to be customers anymore)
• leadership/negotiation committee (people who can show the target they’re hurting their bottomline and negotiate over demands)
• a way to communicate with the boycotters (a structure and massive social reach!).

The Iron Front (German: Eiserne Front) was a German paramilitary organization in the Weimar Republic which consisted of social democrats, trade unionists, and democratic socialists. Its main goal was to defend social democracy against what was seen as anti-democratic, totalitarian ideologies on the far-right and far-left. The Iron Front chiefly opposed the Sturmabteilung (SA) wing of the Nazi Party and the Antifaschistische Aktion wing of the Communist Party of Germany. Formally independent, it was intimately associated with the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD). The Three Arrows, originally designed for the Iron Front, became a well-known social democratic symbol representing resistance against monarchism, Nazism, and communism during the parliamentary elections in November 1932. The Three Arrows were later adopted by the SPD itself.

Tomorrow I am starting a daily multi-hour protest in front of my GOP representative’s office in NYC.

This is possibly [email protected] material but I don't want to assume who these people voted for.

Government employees fight the Trump administration’s chaos by organizing and publishing information on Bluesky

I don’t think [sighs] that our elected officials really believe in the democracy that we’re supposed to be. I feel that corruption has taken over, that morals and principles can be abandoned. A demagogue like McCarthy could come into power again; we’re not immune to a Hider. It’s being proved every day. Violence is rising; hatreds and ethnic divisiveness are escalating. The kind of country we are known to be is in jeopardy. It has always been true; even more so today. But then there are a lot of people who’d fight. The same way we fought fight it now.

Private security dragged out a woman who had been interrupting a Kootenai County Republican Central Committee legislative town hall in Idaho Saturday as Sheriff Robert Norris stood by, spurring a disagreement between the sheriff and Coeur d’Alene’s police chief over the First Amendment implications of the incident.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Whoever did this, hats off to you.

Edit: Whoever took this video and posted it, hats off to you, too. It takes a village.

This is resistance, and this kind is risky. I know that not very many people will see this, but if you are a person who knows or suspects the identity of any of the people doing this kind of thing, no you don't.

Resist.

The General strike organization is dedicated to creating real change by striking against The System. This country still does not work on behalf of its people. By striking we deny the corporations their greatest power - IT's labour.

I come to an app from the other side of the world to see what's going on 1 hour drive from my house because they don't cover it in our news!!! Our news is heavily censored here. It's despicable.
