Paper is the new privacy measure
Always has been.
Protip: for anyone seeking to use typewriters to further circumvent surveillance, please know that the ribbon is a complete log of every keystroke. Also, the pressure your pen makes on paper can be recovered from soft-ish surfaces and sheets underneath it. Act accordingly.
We need more community defense classes now more than ever. Seriously!
If you’ve seen The Leftovers, I believe the communication method of the Guilty Remnant is very relevant now:
Time to bring back the proud American tradition of shooting Nazis.
I would prefer the bat method. They should feel it.
Why not both. Mess them up, then mess up the floor with their brain matter. It’ll be small mess, we all know there’s nothing between their ears
Only if the war is almost over. So don’t hold your breath
And then what?
Trump wants ICE agents to get killed. Then he can declare martial law
Then what? do it. Fuck it. What is the fucking plan? What’s the play after that like really? Let’s see what happens. Are we going to get paramilitary troops killing us in the street? Lol
They’re probably going to declare martial law anyways. What are you going to do then, listen to them? They want a civil war and societal breakdown. This is their end goal, its obvious. What they don’t realize is not every state is going to listen, and there is over half of the country who despises them. This is going to devolve into a civil war one way or another, and it makes me sad.
There is no reason it needs to be this way, but you can only push people so far before they fight back.
I have no idea what the spark is going to be, but its coming. It’s not normal for states to threaten to quit paying taxes, and for a state to activate the national guard to deal with federal goons.
Little tip, put the duress pin as your birth date. Because that’s the first thing that a law enforcement officer might try. Then the phone deletes itself and they can’t claim that you did it because they were the ones to enter it, unprompted.
How do i configure a duress pin on android? Is it a native feature or do i need an app? Using lineage os btw
Ideally it should silently delete just some pre-selected things. If we are coerced into giving the pin away, then the phone resetting itself would invite some retaliation. If it just silently deletes the data of a notes app, it would probably go unnoticed.

It is a native feature of GrapheneOS. It is one of many privacy friendly features in GrapheneOS.
When I think about how Google could relatively inexpensively back-port those features into Android, and how they have not done so… it makes me feel uncomfortable with how long I trusted Google with most of my digital identity.
Edit: I’m not aware of another good way to set a duress pin. When I search for “Android duress pin” all I find, at the moment, are links to GrapheneOS.
You can set the duress pin by going to Settings/Security and privacy/Device unlock/Duress password.Got GrapheneOS installed. I don’t know about the rest though.
Wow I didn’t think my passcode was that transparent. But it’s in European formatting so I guess I have to trust that cops won’t know what’s smaller, a day or a month.
Germany 1930s. We all know the playbook.
This is very true. Minneapolis suburb here. They are following even old ladies back to their homes 30 min away.
Fucking unbelievable
wait how to put it in GPS?
The address you’re dropping it to
Why is there not a general strike called for that state. Allow the groups to be on the streets peacefully full time and remove the fear and hysterical actions.
For any strike or boycott to be truly effective it needs to be maintained until the other side comes to some kind of agreement. A single day or two isn’t going to do much, and most of the population can’t afford to miss anymore work than that AND they are not socially connected to each other enough to be able to rely on one another for support and services while they are effectively locked out of the support and services they would receive from being able to pay for things and buy things.
For a lot of people the two general avenue of choices are resist now and potentially lose everything now, or do nothing now and potentially lose everything later.
I’m not necessarily justifying their actions, but it’s understandable.
The second requirement you describe (activated solidarity) is coming together as we speak in Minneapolis.
How are we supposed to live side by side with these people?
Unless those on the attacking side (MAGA) decide they don’t want to murder more of us, I’m not sure we can. The first civil war was incredibly bloody and tensions between the sides never settled down fully. We are in this situation partly because there is no way to have a compromise with people that believe some of our society’s members aren’t human. The white supremacist view of slave owners and supporters of slavery never went away, it needs to be cut out from the root.
The question that should have been asked and answered when your first Civil War ended: you can’t. They have forfeit their right to live in America by being traitors to its constitution. Maybe after this second one, if the Left somehow wins, they’ll learn from that mistake and get rid of the remaining Right by whatever means are convenient.
What, like put them in concentration camps?
Traitors are executed
funny how we can find a way to hang an insurrectionist when he’s an abolitionist, but we can’t when he’s head of the imperial project
The correct answer is to give the law teeth when it comes to abuse of authority, hate, racism, and all the other mechanisms that enable radical-right propaganda and power structures. They can keep on having garbage opinions about people “not like me”, but actually following through with punching down on others needs to be severely discouraged. The rest should follow once sane ideas are given the proper room to breathe.

Why? Nazi propaganda should be censored and severely punished, including real prison sentences for more serious offenses like actively producing or knowingly publishing it. Otherwise you end up with what we have now.
The law has teeth, in the protection of ruling class, not subjects. The subjects are being deathcamped.
I have seen some movies which had similar stories…
That last Nazi collaborator . . . I am not an angry or violent person, but oh boy I cannot be held responsible for how I might react.
Which is why bullies won’t say that around you; they’ll just say it around a teacher who’s trying to protect that student.
It’s like when they held a child hostage to get his parents out of the house. Colored kids are subhuman bargaining chips to them.
This is so sad. But the upside is there are apparently enough people that don’t want others kidnapped they are delivering groceries and are willing to eat paper if (illegally) stopped by ICE. Y’all should be celebrated forever…
There are credible reports from ICE observers in cars being lead to their own houses. To be more clear, ICE is cars being observed as is one’s constitutionally protected right, are driving to the homes of the cars observing them. This is intended to let the observers know that ICE knows who they are.
It does seem like a bad idea to let the general public determine a location for ICE to drive to in a way that will highlight which car is full of ICE agents, but that is just me.
Well normally when you have a car full of dangerous felons following you then the best place to drive to was the police station but it’s 2026 and well, here we are…
I think it still might be the safest. Drive right through the front door. The local police are going to want to indict you, you did damage to city property and they have to answer to the city. The clusterfuck that is created if the guilty party is disappeared will be avoided at all costs.
In this case, the dangerous felons are being followed, but otherwise, yet.
Now I’m fairly sleep deprived at the moment so it could just be me, but I can’t parse your first paragraph at all, especially the second sentence.
I will break it down differently.
ICE agents are in cars, and the cars are traveling.
First Amendment Observers are following the cars with ICE agents.
The ICE agents are looking up the owner of the car that is following them.
The cars with ICE agents are driving to the homes of the observers, and pausing outside.
ICE agents are attempting to intimidate the observers by demonstrating that they know where the observers live.A couple key typos i think
I think hes saying ice notices a civilain tailing them, pulls their info, then drives to the tail’s adress, with the civilian observer still following, letting them know that the agents know who they are and can get to them any time, as a threat.
Paragraph 2 is pointing out this is a bad strategy for ice, as it allows opposition to lead ice into an ambush/ further identify cars:
Drive around and start tailing suspect cars- when they start going towards your home, mark them as confirmed undercover ICE vehicles,
OR have people waiting at the vehicles’ registered address to ambush them- could be pretty effective once people start shifting to violent resistance mode- either steal a car from someone out of town and use their car and property to set the trap, or your own old home if youre already marked and had to go underground.
Perfect, thank you!
think hes saying ice notices a civilain ta ICE is a civilian org, just like the police. They’d have much clearer more restrictions otherwise.
National guard, for instance, is actual military, and has a LOT of rules for deployment.
This comment of the lady taking the picture really reminds me of the early Nazi era regime where people were hunting for undocumented Jews. This makes me incredibly sad to see history is repeating itself yet again.
I’ve actually started keeping screenshots of people I know who are supportive of ICE, in part so I have my own little database of people who I know can’t be trusted, and so that I can hopefully publish them later when these same people try to pretend they didn’t support this.
There are still WWII veterans alive that fought the Nazis in Germany just to watch it repeat itself in their own fucking country.
The original Antifa… well, except for the Abraham Lincoln Brigade in Spain.
Think any of those vets are the same people trying to get these folks deported?
Probably.
Social media has warped the old and the young alike, as it was designed to do. The people who use these corporate, algorithmically-driven feeds probably aren’t even aware that they themselves are supporting Nazism under a different name.
They’re all 90+. Do you think someone that old is doing anything besides watching soap operas?
I’m inclined to agree. I lost my grandfathers years ago, but I’ve gone through this thought exercise a lot since this all kicked off:
Assuming they don’t already know: would I shelter a 90+ year old veteran from home-grown horrors that they’ll never live to see resolved, or let them shuffle off this mortal coil blissfully ignorant?
Honestly, this is a situation where the truth simply won’t do any good. I’d probably just not tell them and keep those soaps and old movies on repeat.
I’m not sure I could tell one if I knew one either.
Watching Fox News?
Some are nosy neighbors. No age limit on that shit
To have been active at any point in the war, someone would have to be 99. (2026-1945+ 18yrs to be draft age at the end of the war)
Even if there are maga ww2 vets, I doubt many of them are active enough for this.
Even accounting for the many 15 year olds that lied and signed up, they would still be 95-96
Well damn, guess that’s why the Nazis are back in full-force: the generation that defeated them last time is nearly gone. Now 1/3 this country is welcoming Nazis with open arms.
There were definitely people under 18 fighting in both world wars.
Sure but even if we drop the age all the way to 13, theyre still 93 years old, and that would be people who only saw combat at the very end.
Yeah I mean not a statistically significant difference, I just think the assumption set should be as broad as possible as a matter of conservative estimation. We’re trying to show that the living memory footprint is low, which I thought better served by getting the absolute maximum number that could be alive, and it’s still very small.
I can’t even begin to imagine the violence I would be inspired to visit on someone who pulled that on me or someone I know. Like if smug bitch thinks she just “Got me”, and I now have nothing to lose, and she’s not the armed Gestapo, and that’s a brick lying on the ground…
We find the defendant innocent, your honor.
I much prefer the classic image of a woman smacking a Nazi over the head with her purse.
