The day I see that shit happening in person is quite likely the day that I die. I will dive in like a feral animal with teeth and claws and blood and fury. I’ve wanted to die for my entire life. This way it would mean something.
I don’t want to die anymore, but I’d gladly go down fighting to save someone from fascists. I will not go quietly into the night. If I die for this cause, so be it. May my death make me a martyr to my loved ones and inspire them to join the good fight.
I’m going to a protest next weekend and I’m expecting trouble and don’t care. I can’t sit idly by anymore. I’m not going to seek out or purposefully cause violence, however. I won’t be the aggressor, but I will defend those who are victims if I see injustice happening.
Yup. I think that’s the case for a lot of people right now. They created a world where so many people have so little to lose, and then decided to pick a fight with these folks.
Yea, a lot of keyboard warriors talk a big game. Simply filming an officer is still fucking heroing, you are documenting brutality because the cops definitely won’t. I was toe to toe with the CPD in 2020, and it was fucking terrifying. I don’t blame anyone who doesn’t want to kill themselves for not jumping into the fray. Most of us stock shelves for christ sake, and I teach music to 10 year olds- we don’t know how to fight. Even if we did, knowing how to fight and ACTUALLY fighting are VERY different.
I was in Eastern Oregon for my cousin’s bachelor party, and we went to play volleyball at the park. In the court next to us, there was a beefcake skinhead tatted up with swastikas and all of his friends. At this point “punch a Nazi” kinda goes out the door when my 6’2" and 150 lb bean pole ass goes up against the MOST RIPPED NAZI I HAVE EVER SEEN. I just asked the guys to maybe go slackline in the forest instead.
Yep, that why we need to organize.
Even if some people may act bravely, it will not enough.
We need to create the conditions of those action: spreading info on demo, teach ourselves our to react collectively, our to defend our fellow in front of justice, making solidarity funds, …
Depends what you mean by intervention. “All necessary force” could mean a maximum year long prison sentence, assuming the current administration doesn’t push for a terrorism charge.
And? You’re gonna let your neighbors be kidnapped and shipped off to god knows where, or worse, because you’re afraid the Nazis will turn on you?
You’re exactly the fucking coward Martin Niemoller wrote about. Just stay out of these conversations. You’re not a part of this. Stay home with your head in the sand.
I really don’t understand these videos of people just watching officers commit crimes. Stop them. Use all necessary force.
I’ll do so, if I ever witness it. Let’s take it to court. Explain why the officers were violating judicial orders.

Come find me fascist scum. Get what you get.

It’s time to make these fascists fear us.
Talk is cheap, especially when you’re talking about what I’m sure they’ll describe as “assaulting a federal officer”.

Can you show me which code section in the law says officers can commit crimes without intervention?

Whatever you say tough guy.
Says the person arguing for cowardice.
“I don’t have the courage to put myself at risk for a righteous cause, so I’ll project insincerity onto those who do.”
