What ICE/BP is doing to Minneapolis is awful.

And it's taking everything they have. By population, Minneapolis is America's 45th largest city.

Keep both in mind at once: the regime's desire for authoritarian domination is bottomless, and they'll act on it, but their capacity to do so is limited.

ICE agents are more likely to accidentally shoot and kill themselves than be killed by an immigrant.

Pizza delivery drivers face far more danger than ICE and police.

WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to:

* 8 people shot
* 5 of which were U.S. citizens
* 2 died
* no victims drew a weapon

The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire

Cross Bronx Expressway is an amazing artwork. It's a compelling game with a message about how our society has destroyed neighborhoods of color--and how a delicate balance of public, private, and community organizations *can* revitalize a city. Maybe @mayor.nyc.gov can hire @nbsp1618.bsky.social

They don't have capacity to terrorize more than 2-3 cities at a time.

Which means they rotate teams to new cities without relief.

Which means consistent resistance by fresh activists in each new city will break them over time.

Which means if you're city's not occupied, rest up and get ready.

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of finding one constructive real world offline thing you can do to use your particular skills in service of fighting fascism as a psychological defense against the constant drumbeat of fuckery
my hot take is that I don't think it's this website specifically that's toxic. the Circumstances are toxic and nobody really knows what to do about it so they come online and scream. and if I may offer an alternative: actually going outside and screaming feels better.

Screaming "wtf" and waiting for a spontaneous uprising is going to discourage you. There won't be a spontaneous uprising. That's just not where the people are at.

Organize for the long term. Build community. Build resilience. Have a strategy for whatever corner of this thing you're working on.

Seeing people jump in to argue that we should defend porn b/c they use “porn” to go after other stuff. Yes … AND

“Porn” — explicit representation of sex — is good, in the same way that books are good. Some authors are offensive, but as a whole, it’s good to let people access their sexuality.
