At a personal level two things are true at the same time
Criminalization has intended effect of deterrence - the process is the punishment - and going through legal system is always painful & draining.
And its also true that solidarity is stronger than fear, and in this time its all we have.

Vancouver increased its police budget by 40% (!) over past three yrs. Effects are felt daily by targeted communities plus ⬆️ criminalization of dissent

My friend @harshawalia.bsky.social was arrested and charged, and another protester was brutalized today in Vancouver at a protest targeting Apple for profiting from death and exploitation in its supply chain. The protesters also called out Apple's support of Friends of the IDF.
