Talking to other people who work there and reading reviews can help. But the real issue is hierarchical management style is always going to be vulnerable to abuse by bad actors because your managers have near total power over you.

In the private sector the solution is worker’s coops. I’m not sure what it would be called in the nonprofit world but there are likely more democratically run organizations in a similar vein.

Another alternative is finding somewhere with a strong union. Unions can also be toxic in some ways but usually far less so than normal work power dynamics.

We don’t expect you to be a communist, just think and act like our hyper-specific sect of “communism” at all times or face an immediate ban. Sure.

The irony is that the whole existence of that instance is living proof of how catastrophic their ideas would be if implemented more broadly, and I have no doubt they’ve educated many lemmings on this fact unintentionally.

Why is SDF integration desirable?

I don’t think that’s totally accurate. A lot of those are just not paying attention and annoyed with the economy, so they just punish whoever is in power. That said there are tens of millions who are really that deluded and hateful and I don’t know what to do with them. Let me them form their own little autonomous territories maybe, I’m not sure.

So basically this proves every ICE agent on the scene was an accomplice.

Better perhaps but still a weak case. The j6 riot was a singular event that was handled by normal law enforcement. The insurrection act in my opinion shouldn’t exist but to the extent that it has a purpose it’s for like civil wars or other ongoing situations where the feds have lost control over entire regions for a period of time.

It’s not MAGA who I’m hoping will act. A massive coalition of leftists, run of the mill liberals or even non-maga conservatives needs to form and remove Trump from power.

I hope he does it. The people need to feel some pain to motivate us to put a stop to this madness, unfortunately.

The article said that.

Yeah but radio waves? From a backpack-sized device? Do you really think this could cause those kinds of symptoms?

Sounds more like the government got scammed but since it’s useful propaganda they’ll just run with it.

We know they lie brazenly even when it’s all on video so this should be immediately rejected unless there’s evidence it happened that way.

That said, we are in a moment where defensive violence is very clearly ethically justified, if perhaps not always tactically wise.

Fair though.

First, contact as many people as you can, especially local ICE watch orgs. A lot have hotlines which you may be able to find with a web search. Next start recording. Delay as long as possible. Ask for a warrant, stay calm and maybe try to negotiate as a stall tactic. This will hopefully give community members time to arrive and record or hopefully apply pressure if they are brave and numerous enough. It is possible to intimidate and drive them back with enough numbers.

All else fails at this point I would not fight back and allow yourself to be arrested. Most citizens being arrested right now are being released. The courts are slow but still upholding the law for now. If you are not a citizen then your options might not be as good. Fighting back is likely to get you injured or killed but if you have an escape route it could be worthwhile, especially if you can escape in areas where motor vehicles can’t go. Their level of fitness is generally low so they can’t give chase for long, and as long as you’re not high profile you might be safe once you get away, though you’ll likely need to lie low somewhere.

If you’re asking what to do about the current political situation in a broader sense then I have different answers.

Well, only if they were able to identify him. It’s possible he escaped.

Fuck no.

Just because the US doesn’t legally consider it a military occupation doesn’t make it not one. But yeah I can see why they might not want to put that in the headline.

Is there actual evidence he was murdered? I mean I assume that’s what happened but I’m just curious what’s actually known about his fate if anything.

Oh wow thanks for explaining. So not just MAGA but brazenly racist. Or maybe that’s a bit redundant.

Guess not. He was MAGA or something? Saw that after I posted this.
