I have certainly had a bad take on something in the past. The libs I know couldn’t spot it but my leftist friends did. The thing I respect about leftism is the acceptance of fewer excuses for moral failings. Sometimes this edges into unproductive purity testing but overall it works
I guess it's because I grew up in the radical left, but I have such a hard time getting in the heads of those who are instead enmeshed in non-leftist circles and thus fantastically imagine "The Left" as some noble coalition of good people with good takes, with anything else as dismissible exception.

Can someone share one of those Know Your Local Militia guides that shows normal people how to differentiate between groups like the Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer etc. I need one quickly and can’t find mine 🙏🏻

Andy reporting on the current sweep of the mutual aid station at the PDX ICE protest: "Why didn't they do this months ago?"

They did, and Andy knows it.

Andy on Sept 1: "... at least four or five times already."

“it’s clear that IGD does not have the capacity to meet the moment as a hub for grassroots reporting and journalism…

We should all have a sober and clear-eyed view of what is happening. The current administration is attempting to consolidate extreme authoritarian power”

About a year ago, we announced a hiatus on this project. Due to an outpouring of support, we pushed ourselves to continue, and over the last year, we’re proud of the interviews and roundups we’ve been...

Portland: if a streamer from out of state gets arrested or detained, perhaps wait to see if he gets more than a citation before donating $100,000+ to his "legal defense". that money is vastly in excess of what he might possibly need and could have gone to helping people in serious legal jeopardy

Ya know, getting in front of a moving pace car at a protest in order to to get cool streaming footage is main character syndrome ass entitlement and is also unsafe, and if someone yells at you for doing it, you should take it personally and feel bad

Not just elections. I still think back on doing traffic safety for a small march in a northern suburb of Denver and having the cops literally redirecting traffic back at us. When one of us went to ask them to stop actively endangering ppl, the cop said "can't, we've been defunded."
the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.
Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

Today in Portland, a fed shooting pepper balls from the roof of the ICE facility was so eager to aim for people’s heads, that after shooting one photographer in the head and another in the upper arm, they accidentally shot a DHS agent in the head. This photo shows the moment of impact;

Protests are popping off again and people are getting snatched up for lack of tactics. If you’re in a city where the police enjoy kettling protestors, it’s time to make safe egress maps.

Here’s an example and instructions on how to make them for your city:

Incredible watch, and stoked to see the corking materials we’ve worked hard on finding their way to a broader audience, as intended. Solidarity with Seattle and every other city showing up to keep people safe.

Cork the streets.
In ~45 minutes I'll be posting a video about my favorite Direct Action, that is deeply connected to my love for motorcycles: Corking

In 7 days we have another national day of protest, and I hope this helps organizers create better, safer marches!

I get the feeling that a lot of the "the best reaction is to do nothing and not have anything going on" people have been doing that the entire time but now feel it gives them moral righteousness.

"Good thing I didn't try and oppose this, definitely would have just made it worse right?"

When are liberals going to realize that telling people to “not engage” with a violent fascist state is the same as telling a domestic violence victim to just be quiet so their abuser doesn’t have a reason to hit them anymore
