    I think this is a sign that the boycott and protests are getting to them. Don’t stop. Be smart about what you do but don’t stop.

    Domestic terrorists don’t egg cars. Domestic terrorists push past barricades, invade capitol buildings, and assault capitol police.

    Like the ones trump pardoned.

    The plan is to progressively outlaw any dissenting opinions and systematically outlaw any movement threatening his rule. BLM, Gay rights organizations, pro-democracy movements and media outlets etc.

    This is how Vlad the fils-de-Putin does it.

      This doesn’t mean resistance should stop. Not saying ppl shouldn’t be careful, but the resistance should continue since it’s clearly annoying certain someones.

      I’m a union member in a red state. It’s going to be a real ride seeing all of the braindead dipshits that voted for him crying when he starts coming for our collective bargaining.

      I can’t believe I’m saying this but I really hope the fact that there are too many firearms in this country to ever confiscate and that he is much much stupider than Putin is will prevent him from succeeding. It’ll still be terrible when we’re a collection of insurgent states but he may never be able to solidify control in the same way

    If you’re gonna risk getting persecuted for “terrorism” anyway, you might as well skip the petty vandalism and do something that really earns the charge instead.

    I will say it again. The word “terrorist” is just meaningless now. It’s just a cudgel that government and corporate demagogues use to victimize innocent targets and distract from their own unjust violence.

    to apply right-wing logic to this: “if you label everything domestic terrorism, the term will lose it’s meaning!!!11!!!”

    To be fair, attacking America’s corpo capitalist’s profits is an attack on America’s only practiced religion and belief system.
