would be fun to NH get invaded. all those "live free or die" libertarians would be ready, right? right?
It seems that a majority or close to it of people in Maine support it here. White rage is real.

Compared to Minnesota Nice, the ICE goons are really going to like the Philly 'tude.Rumor has it a Philly op is coming. The people there must be salivating.
Absolute majority? Or majority of the people willing to talk to you?It seems that a majority or close to it of people in Maine support it here. White rage is real.

Drew's gonna be right there in the front lines with his gunz, opposing ICE, I'm sure of it. Drew's a big 'don't tread on me', oppose gubmint tyranny via my 2A rights kinda guy.Absolute majority? Or majority of the people willing to talk to you?
I'm curious whether you're serious about this. Do you think Mainers would sit idly by if ICE came into their streets and shops and started rounding people up and disappearing them? They wouldn't fight back at all?
Because that is certainly not Maine's reputation as tough, proud, and while taciturn having a dogged determinism to resist tyranny.
Have they really gone that soft?
I doubt it. I think Mainers would skip the blatting about shame altogether and get right to the business of tossing these cowards out on their ear without wasted breath, John Wayne style.
The fasc are moving slowly through the FAFO phases. For the most part, our resistance is still bogged down in the last 50 years of ineffective pink pussy hat performativeness. Vigils and speeches and "Hey hey, ho ho." And maybe my cohort and and Millenials will always be marooned there. But I think Gen Zers are a different doggy. I don't think they are going to just yap. I think they are going to bite.
Start with general strikes. Move to consumer strikes. Lengthen each. Begin with non-violent human waves, restricting the movement of the predators, using the sheer power of numbers. Film everything, silently. Get out of the fucking shot and let the story be told by events, anonymously and thus universally.
The people who work own the people they work for. The people who buy things own the people they buy from. They just have not realized it yet. A system where 99% of the people are getting the shaft cannot sustain itself, because even the hired guns who run security for those elites and make their meals and tuck their kids in at night are part of, or are from, that 99%.
Yes. Though I think consuming is our only real value now. We are grown like crops, not for our brain AA battery but for our purchasing.We need a nationwide general strike. It doesn't need to be half or even a third of people. If 20% of the population across all work forces decided to stay home, those with the money would start shitting themselves.
If the last election taught me anything it is that money is the only real motivator in this country.
What does any of that bullshit have to do with government secret police going around murdering people?I suspect you’re looking at it differently than a lot of folks here are. You’re relatively well off right? A lot of folks here aren’t. I don’t think a lot of folks even care that much about government, fascism, whatever else. There are a lot of people just trying to get through the day.
There are people who for generations have lived a sort of hardscrabble existence, and been happy with it, but that way of life is under massive threat. In just the last 10 years ago the cost of housing has gone through the roof. I think a lot of people have a zero sum sort of attitude that every unit of housing taken up by an immigrant is one less unit for locals. Obviously there are a ton of factors for why people are in the situation they’re in but that is one that is easy for people to understand.
One thing to understand as well is people absolutely do not want a handout. There are a lot of people who would starve to death before they would accept help from the government. Change is hard.
