With everything going on in LA right now it's just so difficult to figure out who the good guys are in this situation. If only there were, like, a really good movie I could watch that would make a super obvious analogy, like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Robin Hood, Braveheart, V for Vendetta, Indiana Jones, A Bugs Life, Snowpiercer, Ben Hur, 1984, MacBeth, Saving Private Ryan, The Matrix, American History X, Dead Poets Society, Schindler's List, Captain America, Casablanca, District 9, Come and See, Inglorious Basterds, Minority Report, Dune, Pan's Labyrinth, Sound of Music, Les Miserables, Harry Potter, Elysium, Gattaca, The LEGO Movie, Blues Brothers, Cheech and Chong, Barbie Movie, Oppenheimer, Planet of the Apes, Zone of Interest, Watchmen, Hunger Games, or Wicked. But it would be even better if there were like a whole TV show about it, like Andor, Handmaid's Tale, The Man in the High Castle, Game of Thrones, the Boys, Firefly, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, ....

"What is a 'kettle'?" and how to look out for one in four frames.

#protest #protests #kettle #kettling

A kettle is an area protesters are led into by police without good exits or where those exits are under firm police patrol, thus making it easy to contain or arrest you. Watch out for prisoner transport busses and a general sense of being led by police into a specific, small area.

I love this sign Indivisible made for the protest tomorrow.

A black and white sign in a slightly distressed, narrow sans serif font reading, in all caps, I HAVE FRIENDS EVERYWHERE.

We have a friend that’s an #immigration attorney in #LA and she’s losing her shit. Her work with clients is being used to kidnap them. They’re grabbed if they appear for a hearing, regardless of the judge’s ruling. And even if with her help they were adjudicated to live and work in the US decades ago, the record of that fact is used by ICE to kidnap them. So her phone is ringing off the hook *and* all the tear-gassing and gunplay and kidnapping is occurring at her place of work.

"Ice can end", another one of Sapien's #MagicAcrosticSquares, spotted near Mission and 24th in San Francisco. #SFGraffiti #AbolishIce #Graffiti #Sapien

Large graffiti on a wall in San Francisco. The text has three words, Ice, Can, and End, written in a 3 by 3 square. So the words can be read from left to right, or from top to bottom. This graffiti is painted on a double wide garage door in Osage Alley. On the wall above and around the garage door is another mural that looks like it was inspired by Mayan buildings and ornamentiation.

If there's anything that illustrated the hollowness of the Democratic Party as an effective opposition for me, it's this.

Yesterday, I watched a video of a sitting US Senator being thrown to the ground and cuffed by fed goons for asking questions of the fed official he has direct oversight authority over.

Within minutes, I'd gotten DOZENS of texts from Dems and Dem orgs asking for $5-$50 to "fight fascism."

That's it. "Are you terrified that your country is slipping into fascism? Pay me."

#StarTrek

Star Trek The Original Series scene. We're in a corridor on the Enterprise. Two non series regular crew members are standing behind Spock in a bodyguard stance. (Tough guy bodyguard vibe, not Kevin Coster/Whitney Houston bodyguard vibe). Spock is wearing a dress uniform with extra flair, medals, and pins, a golden sash, and has a goatee. He's looking at Kirk, who seems a bit cocky and is wearing a glittery fancy gold, sleeveless uniform. Closed caption reads, "Terror must be maintained or the empire is doomed."

There are rumors being spread nationwide about proud boys and Trump supporters infiltrating protests against ICE and that they plan on instigating and escalating to make protesters “look bad” etc. I thought this was really obvious cointelpro to defend peace policing and encourage distrust to anyone in bloc or any direct action, especially ahead of the weekend, but I’m seeing more and more people spread this.

Please please pleaseeeee spread calm and not panic. Rumors like this happen frequently when stuff is popping off and it can cause chaos very quickly.

If there is an active threat or cause for concern from the far right I promise you there are so many Antifascist researchers all over the country paying close attention and you will hear it from them before any random liberal account or org making these claims with no evidence.
