Outsiders rarely grasp this.

"Often the most effective organizers maintain a low profile externally."

"Effective" isn't a code word for workhorse. They may be the whole difference in achieving success. With few resources, they have to leverage creativity and the ability to energize others to win.
It's not glamorous, there's no quick fix, and often the most effective organizers maintain a low profile externally.

If you as an individual need to have an external profile in ways that aren't compatible with group decisions, you don't just do it. You leave.

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders is introducing an amendment to cut ICE’s $75 billion funding increase, and to use those funds to restore the federal cuts to health care.

Y’all, we’ve seen this before. The arrest of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort for their coverage of resistance in Minneapolis is just like when they arrested journalists in Palestine for covering the g-cide.

Six days ago federal officers murdered a man in the streets of Minneapolis and we still don't know their identities. Is there any modern precedent for this?

The VERY MEAN AND NASTY Jesus Christ flipped over a bunch of tables in the temple and assaulted our fine money changers with a whip! HE WILL NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS. Jesus is a well-known leftist who has NO RESPECT for the businesses that make our houses of worship great!

Liam Conejo Ramos, the five year old ICE detained last week in Minnesota, is being held in Texas in a center owned by CoreCivic, a private prison company that donated heavily to Trump’s campaign. Liam is now reportedly sick because of conditions in the facility. 🧵

My dear friends, please be angry. Be energized. Be smart and kind and flexible. Be water. Be brave.

But above all, be intentional. Be tactical. Be cunning.

That is how we can be dangerous.

In 2019, when @flyingwithsara.bsky.social brought up the *idea* of a general strike to end a govt shutdown, it got immediate results. Why? Because if the workers she represents all walk out, the entire U.S. transportation sector shuts down. Everything shuts down. That's the power of a general strike

Why does it matter what an action is called, so long as people are getting involved? Every time a "general strike" fizzles out, that weakens the power of the actual mechanism. A general strike is meant to send cold shivers down the state and bosses' spines. It is a threat. It is our nuclear option.

Just because you aren't seeing massive protests on teevee doesn't mean they're not happening, it means you should be asking yourself why you aren't seeing them.

Hint: It's one of the cornerstones of an authoritarian state.

This is from Georgia Fort’s video.

The arrests of Don Lemon, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lundy are unacceptable and a clear violation of the Constitution.

This is a dangerous abuse of power that threatens the rights of every single American.

They must be released immediately.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.

But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.
The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

One reason you can't just tinker with ICE/CBP is the whole thing is facially illegitimate. The intent is rotten. It's run by a white supremacist maniac and will continue producing white supremacist maniac results
