In Austin, police were forced to use pepper spray and tear gas...
i'm sorry, who is forcing the police to do this? it seems like they are willingly doing this, not being forced.
They wanted to play with their military grade toys, and live targets got them salivating like the predators they are.
So you see, “forced”.
Woah, inflammatory language! Not all of them are "predators"! Some of them are fascists, or racists, or bullies, or spouse-beaters, or cowards, or...
We're not far away from nationwide protests. Grab your Sharpies and make some signs.
In fact, they're already planned for this weekend. See the map below for the one closest to you:
Are people bringing kids to these?
Resist this Macho Military Mayhem produced by BIG TACO & Co. !!! Press on, siblings & niblings!
Had a sales call with a big client in Chicago. They were all told to wfh and not come into city bc protests. Minor disruption but that's lost revenue to Chicago transit, food vendors, etc, plus the tax revenues. Bad example bc most outspoken mayor in America but you get the point.
My org has an office in LA and everyone who came in was sent home yesterday.
I believe this is turning into what Trump wanted to occur during the George Floyd protests.
The instigators breaking shit were trying to start a riot to give him pretext to federalize the National Guard.
Only, nobody bought into it.
Instead, this time, he's taking smaller protests and escalating them by using military intimidation, which, as the regime hoped, infuriated large swaths of Americans. Once these continue to grow, instigators will become present. It takes one, hidden somewhere, to shoot an agent or guardsman, and shit flys off the walls.
Unfortunately, the path forward is bleak. Protests must continue. And they must grow. People dying is out of the question at this point.
The regime is betting that a few instances of massacres will give him enough power to quell 358,000,000 Americans into accepting a totalitarian regime. Every dictator in modern history has done this in one way, shape, or form.
I keep saying this but it falls on deaf ears. A resistance must not resist in a theater of the Regime's choosing. It won't work.
Blue states have a powerful weapon at their disposal. They need not instruct citizens to withold federal taxes. They need to instruct employers and self employed to cease all federal witholding. If they fail to do so, cut off the resources an employer needs. When tax season comes around, how many Americans will willingly pay the 12-35% of their income they now owe? None. The federal government now has lost significant portions of revenue. Americans won't work without pay. Not for long.
The time for the most powerful form of warfare has arrived. Economic warfare.
At the end of the day the Democrats choose to be complicit. Fascists never rise to power because they have enough power by themselves, but because they have enablers among the "center".
A little bit ago it flew under the radar that he put into place that he could raise a militia if there was a revolution. Can't remember the act, not an American citizen.
But around then it was said that he would start this and it could happen around April.
The thing is that the act has some funky wording and the militia need not be the national guard, and he can mobilize MAGA to act as the militia.
So that's probably the next step.
Fresno as well. Only a small amount of news picked it up, but there was a huge amount of people out.
Im seeing a lot of local cities doing the same.
Where's that guy who was like "I don't see any American flags at these protests" in complaint about the Mexican flags at the LA protests
Looking the other way so he doesn't see any American flags.
it's showing up everywhere
