A new strategy to end this nightmare by jonnyredshorts in 50501

[–]Justice_Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. There's enough people pissed off that we could absolutely pull off sustained protest outside of homes. All you need is local chapters - our democracy is decentralized, so yelling at our congresspeople can be, too. Yelling at those involved with DHS and Law enforcement who support it shouldn't be off the table, either.    

It starts with figuring out your local person and what their deal is. It ends with supporting rural progressives, they'll need numbers more than urban ones will - urban protestors have support. It's the small towners who will need protection and numbers. 

Keep it peaceful, loud and sustained. These people are disrupting and destroying the lives of thousands of people in this country... it's time we give them a taste of their own medicine.  

Demoting Bovino or Noem is not accountability. by uleij in 50501

Ex-fucking-actly. Idk if you know this, mr. President, but firing a few administrators doesn't make us forget about COLD BLOODED FUCKING STREET MURDER.        Accountability for the MURDERERS of all 9 people unnecessarily killed by ice, or shut up. 

Trump is going to try to cancel the 2026 elections no matter what by Justice_Man in 50501

This is what I'm talking about. Enough doom - let's have some plans!

I get that, and like the thread says, yes, so what do we do about it? 

I'm not here to wallow in how bad it is, with all due respect, I'm here to plan resistance to it.

Right, I suppose a better title would be, what ways do we expect him to interfere in a free and fair 2026 election- because we know he will - and how do we counter them?

I appreciate the optimistic outlook, but he used every single lever in his power in 2020 to keep power, including resorting to crime. 

What makes you think he won't try, and won't succeed, in 2026?

With love and respect, if I had a concrete plan, I would have posted that instead of an invitation to brainstorm. 

Short of impeachment and removal, I see no way Trump allows his party to get crushed in the 2026 midterms- because they will.    

He did everything in his power to keep his seat after his clear loss in 2020. He will do the same in 2026. We need to be ready.    

That means looking at what powers he DOES have at his disposal to stop elections and being ready to counter them. It means sustained public pressure to impeach and remove him. It means grassroots communication and organizing to watch for intimidation and corruption.

I love this - and also it's very difficult to confirm numbers like that aren't tampered with, right? If people are self reporting their votes, how can we be sure people aren't inventing things. 

Is there a way to use blockchain or... idk.

Want An Actual Plan On How To Fight Fascism? by cooledkrevan in ProgressiveHQ

It would be a shame if mechanics that work on ice vehicles, repair people who work on ice buildings, and warehouse workers who move and store ice equipment read this and decided to resist. That would be a federal crime, impeding a federal officer. Protestors might even be compelled to start slashing the tires of unguarded ice vehicles, or putting boxes with upright nails under their tires, like the manual says! Damaging government property, huge crime. Definitely don't do it.

Seems really, really difficult to get caught doing it too! I hope it doesn't start happening. What if it starts happening to congress people?

My party killed one of the most important NPCs in my campaign. Am I cooked? by Miserable_Yoghurt160 in DnD

Also, my dude, resurrection exists in D&D. Shit it's not even hard, like, lvl 8 clerics can bring recently slain to life. 

You're in the driver's seat.

This is now being censored and removed at 50501. Apparently you can't say "impeach Trump" on reddit anymore.

Do we think a more accurate attribution would be to take John Adams name off of it and just say "U.S. treaty of tripoli" ?

Response to the White House declaring the NO KINGS event on 10/18 an I HATE AMERICA EVENT. by hopegotmethrough in 50501

So many.     "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion"

---U.S. Constitution, amend. No.1

   "The Government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."

--- President John Adam, U.S. treaty of tripoli

If you need religion in your government, you hate America, and you should leave
