Seems like a particularly good time to reread & share this excellent post on tools for thinking about censorship activities by @adapalmer. Highly recommended.

Well it's been in the post for a minute, but they've got bored of doing it one by one.

Hundreds of international students in the U.S. have been told to self-deport and have had their F-1 visas revoked for sharing “anti-national” content on social media or for alleged involvement in campus activism, according to reports.

Musk's encouragement translates as:

Anyone, who's not interested in bribing demented corruptible psychopath Trump can go to Threads, Reddit, BlueSky, Instagram, Facebook.

Thanks for showing folks the way out of your sewer, Eloon!

Giving in to Trumps demands doesn’t stop him demanding more and continuing to intimidate his victim. Giving in empowers him to take his bullying further. #Trump #FeloniousTrump #USpolitics https://masto.ai/@Nonilex/114242994540137273

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate. Here is the last version of the text used in the presidential election: ‘WARNING: Violating WI Statutes 12.13 & 6.18 may result in fines up to $10,000 or 3.5 years in prison. Don’t vote in a state where you’re not eligible.’ Similar messages are circulating again now. These are scare tactics and are not legal in the United States. We’d like to request that these texts be investigated. We encourage all Americans to make their voices heard—your vote counts!

Do This: Tesla Mass Action Protest on March 29th


This Saturday, March 29th, is Tesla Takedown Day, a day of peaceful protest at every US Tesla dealership and as many other dealerships and facilities outside the US as possible.

Here’s a map of planned protests you can join – places, times of day, and so on. They aren’t all at the same time, which might be useful for you. Find one close to you that’s at a time you can make and be there, preferably with a sign. If you don’t want to design your own sign, feel free to print and use one of these, or adapt them to your own ideas. They’re high resolution at 11×17 and plenty good enough at two times that.

Tesla Takedown is also helping people find protests on other days as well. Here’s the home website for the movement, with all the details you need.

Get out there. And good hunting.

"It's not too late to stop this train, although it gets more difficult with every day that goes by, every media outlet that rolls over and pays off, every law firm that grovels before Trump. The key — as it has been throughout history — is to mobilize public opinion...

History suggests that mobilizing 3.5% of the populace of a country is enough to produce change"

Text from article:
It's not too late to stop this train, although it gets more difficult with every day that goes by, every media outlet that rolls over and pays off, every law firm that grovels before Trump. The key — as it has been throughout history — is to mobilize public opinion and pressure politicians to act on behalf of traditional American values of freedom, liberty, and the rule of law.

History suggests that mobilizing 3.5% of the populace of a country is enough to produce change, although recent experience in Belarus and Israel suggests that may depend on how entrenched an authoritarian regime has become, particularly if their legitimacy is enhanced by an external attack (see Reichstag Fire, Moscow Theater, 10/7, and 9/11).

Nonetheless, there are things we can do right now:

— Support independent, progressive media.
— Show up for protests in your area.
— Post your opinions on social media.
— Share this and other like-minded newsletters.
— Reach out to your elected officials from the federal to state to local levels.
— Run for office yourself.
— Join your local Democratic Party and volunteer as a precinct committeeperson.
— Wake up everybody you know.


"The goal of this sort of kidnapping and hellish incarceration isn’t to clear the streets of criminals or promote public safety or even prevent immigration: it’s to create #terror. And it’s working.

This is a playbook as ancient as the world’s first kings...

every #tyrant throughout #history has used the threat of arrest and imprisonment as a way to force public compliance with their regime."

Text from article:
This morning, the world learned that Trump’s goons also shipped a married father with no criminal record (and no tattoos!) off to that same prison in El Salvador, again with no due process. The man had not committed any crime.

The goal of this sort of kidnapping and hellish incarceration isn’t to clear the streets of criminals or promote public safety or even prevent immigration: it’s to create terror. And it’s working.

This is a playbook as ancient as the world’s first kings. Defy the monarch, or even challenge the monarch, and your quality of life rapidly goes to hell.

From the Tower of London in the twelfth century to Stalin’s gulags, from the medieval Popes’ Palacio de la Inquisición torture chambers to Hitler’s concentration camps, from Xi’s Dabancheng Re-education Camp to Trump’s ICE agents snatching people off the streets, every tyrant throughout history has used the threat of arrest and imprisonment as a way to force public compliance with their regime.


"This is how it begins.

Tuesday night, Tufts University PhD student #RumeysaOzturk was going out to a restaurant to meet friends when masked federal #ICE agents dressed in street clothes seized her off a public sidewalk and disappeared her. Her apparent crime was co-authoring an op-ed critical of #Trump & #Netanyahu."

She Stepped Onto a Sidewalk in Boston — and Vanished Into Trump’s Shadow State

Masked ICE agents are now snatching dissidents off the streets like a scene from Stalin’s Russia. This isn’t speculative fiction. It’s happening right now, in America…

Guess who's in charge of investigating Signalgate? Everyone's favourite very stable genius, tech wizard and "first buddy" ... Space Karen 🙄

Another student's been abducted in the US, straight off the street (see video, via indie journalist Daniel Boguslaw).

Independent: "ICE arrests Tufts University doctoral student who co-authored op-ed supporting Palestine and revokes her visa"

This stuff is just plain nuts, and a massive danger to our military.

“The statements by Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe, and Trump—combined with the assertions made by numerous administration officials that we are lying about the content of the Signal texts—have led us to believe that people should see the texts in order to reach their own conclusions.”

When Jason Stanley, Professor of Philosophy at Yale, and Yale historian Timothy Snyder, both of whom have written books like "How Fascism Works" and "On Tyranny", flee the country to a safer one, you can probably start figuring out what your country has become.

Fleeing fascistic/dictatorial regimes had been a last resort for people fearing persecution in the 20th century. It's now happening in 21st century #USA.

Very few people on earth have the power to remove the fascist dictator currently destroying our nation. They are Senators and Congresspeople.

Ignoring them. Failing to put maximum pressure on them to do the right thing and save our country is simply wrong. On every level.

I thought it was clear to everybody, but maybe not.

To restore checks and balances, the Legislative Branch must reclaim the power to oversee the Executive Branch and remove all the criminals from that branch through the impeachment process.

The only other option is American Fascist Dictatorship.
