Is the person in the rainbow mask a leftist? Has this turned into something like the Iranian revolution where the right wing was joined by some leftists?
This makes my blood boil. While I appreciate the resistance the filmers showed, their response could have been better.
First and foremost, they should have dialed 9-1-1. “There is a group of masked and armed men assaulting and kindnapping a man off the street! They are trying to pull him into a black sedan with tinted windows! Send police now!”
After that, let them know in no uncertain terms that fascist pieces of shit are not welcome here. Call them out on their un-American actions
Ah yes, the proud Patriots protecting you from... your Doordash delivery. Such bravery!
Hey USA. How's that 2nd Amendment working for you?
I'm glad you asked. We're seriously thinking about arming the children. Only semi auto for the kids though and teachers get full auto. Cops will just carry grenade launchers and rockets now, for their safety. That should finally take care of the school shooting problem. We tried arming the cops and putting them in schools, but that just created a soiled underpants problem and didnt save any kids at all.
I'm still waiting for the trial, where I've agents were gunned down for self defense.
and there will be a trial regarding the right to defend yourself from masked unidentified gangs kidnapping people.
if the decision goes against fascist ideals, then the Supreme court will intervene. and the 2A nuts will suck fash cock and celebrate that it's bad to raise against a tryranic government.
"🎶Land of the free, home of the brave🎵"
Feeling brave and free enough to stop a rapist, racist, paedo nazi from overtaking your country yet?
Or are you going to carry on waiting for someone else to do something?
Who needs guns when you have memes and twitter, I mean x a platform owned by one of the enemies that people still use. /S
“ICE is a terrorist organization,” Ramirez told me. “It needs to be defunded and needs to be abolished.”
It's agents also need to be arrested, and put on a trial.
These guys are total pussies. Either shoot them or unmask them. They are already on camera so swarm them and pull down a few masks. Once you ID a few of them publicly, the rest will drop like flies.
And lose your jobs, your homes, and your freedom in the process as you get prosecuted for assaulting federal agents where the authorities have an incentive to make an example out of you to deter future incidents.
I'm not expecting the world to change from holding hands and singing hymns, but insulting people (who already started confronting them instead of just pretending not to see) for not sacrificing more than I'd have to seems rather narrow-minded to me.
You’re going to lose all those things anyway.
If this continues unopposed, yes, but asking individuals in specific situations to sacrifice their own lives without an organized community does not sound reasonable to me.
Considering the mass surveillance well underway, the window to organize effectively has already closed. Doing so puts you in as much danger unmasking an agent and in this scenario they will just slap the terrorism label on it and that’s the end of the conversation.
It’s preferable to mass organize but it’s too late now. Keep fighting. We are going to lose but we are going to make this as difficult and expensive as possible anyway. They don’t get to be comfortable.
We’re not gonna lose, these fucks always fall apart sooner or later. Authoritarianism always falls.
Yes, it does, but only the survivors benefit from its collapse. What makes you so confident that you will survive when many others will not?
Then do it in a big enough group that they wont dare prosecute you and show how many people opposed them, or try to isolate you and show how weak they are.
Making large groups of people that all agree with you spontaneously appear at a location is typically not super easy.
True! But everyone hates ice.
Unfortunately, a large percentage of the voting population seems to support them, which is part of how we got here in the first place. The best argument for a free and open democracy is what happens with any of the alternatives, but people have a tendency to forget, and opportunists are great at using difficult times to garner support.
Go the fuck outside.
Everyone hates ice. The people who don't are afraid of outside.
A Quinnipiac University poll showed voters disapproved of how ICE was enforcing immigration laws, 57% to 39%. ICE’s numbers on immigration were even slightly worse than Trump’s.
An NPR-PBS News-Marist College poll last month showed 54% of Americans said ICE had “gone too far” in enforcing immigration laws.
And a CNN poll released last weekend showed Americans opposed Trump’s expanded ICE funding, 53-31%.

No one wants to shoot anyone. We're not murderers. So here we are, needing to think of some other way, and no one has ideas.
Healthy people don’t WANT to murder people. But we are being backed into a corner. Are you willing to die for decorum or fight?
Bigotry and lack of decency ruined the country but it was already ruined it was built on blood repe and kidnapping and forced labor
Juvenile. Pissed off that someone might hold them accountable. Not much these people hate more than oversight and someone getting in the way of their violence.
crybabies
Dude is right but for the wrong reasons. LIberalism serves and reinforces hegemony. Liberalism pushes the overton window so far to the right that fascism seems moderate.
Liberalism <---> Fascism.
What? BS! Is that why the Nazis arrested the German liberals and sent them to the concentration camps?
I get that liberals had their part to play, but can we stop putting the onus of fascism on liberals and blame the fucking fascists for fascism for a change?
But muh division
I always thought it was fight the right, but it turns out we’re more interested in dog piling the ineffectual centrists and splitting hairs amongst one another. No wonder we never make any headway.
Even if your definition was taken that's not what he meant
Liberalism <—> Fascism.
It wasnt always this way. Liberalism is way off the rails and the DNC has zero interest in fixing it. And the republicans are just openly violent fascists. The Dems will do the barest possible minimum of serving their voters to keep some small chance of winning an election, and no more. They dont work for us, but they do want our votes. They work for AIPAC and industry.
ICE is becoming a paramilitary organization, Trump's personal army. It isn't really fulfilling its supposed role for which it was created in the first place.
The republican traitor filth must be brought low.
