Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Maybe yeah ... The art is to be resolute without weapons, strategic, smart, large-scale and unpredictable. National strikes, and creating or using a solidarity strike funds during the strike for alternative sources of income for ur neighbors and poor people and supporting organizations that work on democracy, I found protectdemocracy.org, supporting that is one of many good steps in the right direction, better than my crazy idea at least igues lmao
It seems like every week or so I hear of new ways people are coming up with to be a massive pain in the ass for ICE, and that is great. Peaceful resistance definitely doesn't have to be nice, and can be pretty effective. Here in Chicagoland ICE is pretty much locked out of private businesses, and everywhere they go they are being followed by mobs with whistles or cars honking horns. They have been pulling over "suspicious" vehicles (pure racial profiling) only to have other drivers jump out and tell the victims to shut the fuck up and not say a thing to further suspicion. Resistance is peaceful, but it's real.
Please keep sharing these stories.
It's so important that people realize they do have power and these Nazi fucks can be stopped.
Majority report and status coup have been doing great coverage of this stuff.
