Hey so tariffs aren’t over y’all. If there are vulnerable necessities you need, consider stocking up an extra month or two’s worth before August. Things to consider are insulin needles, masks and exam gloves, coffee, formula/baby food, your favorite canned food, specialty footwear or inserts etc
Also you don’t think anyone who’s protested since 2020 doesn’t understand the risk of being shot and killed? Big lulz

Hold everyone accountable, not just republicans
The Iran bombing and the Epstein vanishing have cracked some trump voters’ armor. If you know someone who is questioning things and you want to help, try gently asking them non judgmental questions about their beliefs. Don’t let those cracks scab over

For example
You can’t reach the die hard members and it’s probably not safe to try. But the people who don’t know the details? THEY are who we need to contact. Support for elements of the bill drop almost across the board when you explain what the bills language means in common terms.
Ok but in all seriousness, maga is a cult, we know because experts keep fucking telling us. Cults will let their leader get away with a hell of a lot, up to deadly Koolaid for example.
I’m going to allow myself a moment of snide jokes:
Trump should have just released the Epstein files, even if he was on it. Do you honestly think that would change the mind of any Fox News watching red hat. Fox News literally wouldn’t report on it, for one.
Mutual aid is more than just sharing food. It’s caring for each other’s mental well being too.
Thinking traps are always always harmful, and they are some of the worst things your brain can do to you.
Doomerism for clicks is doing fascists work for them. Delete that stupid meme right now because it only hurts us.
This fight has been hard, some more than others, will get harder, and may not work. But you better believe I’m going to try.
But you know what makes it harder for people to struggle through difficult times?
Catastrophizing.
It’s a thinking trap, look it up
I see a lot of memes like blah blah comment on trumps batshit crazy actions, “and no one cares”
This is fucking harmful y’all and I will die on that goddamn hill.
Fascists want us scared, meek, quiet, divided.
Posting “we have concentration camps and no one cares” might as well be maga propaganda
Trump has directly expanded ice. The budget murder bill will expand them more. How do we help people see trumps actions are directly negatively affecting them in the here and now? We need as many blue voters as humanly possible but the cult is strong
The question I have is how do we help trump voters see that trump is the cause of their harm. For example, farmers are getting fucked.
One raid in California had Gestapo agents sprinting across fields chasing migrant workers like they were stray dogs. Of fucking course they don’t want to work
Migrant workers are terrified to come harvest because of the American gestapo. Produce is and will continue to rot on the vine. Consider purchasing fresh food from farmer’s market stalls or local grocery stores run by Latino folks to help their families make up for lost summer and fall income
Thanks! More resources is always good
In addition to protest marches and rallies, there are MANY other methods of nonviolent civil resistance! Our task is to plan and implement the most effective ones for each situation.
I recommend this training in strategic non-cooperation.

If I had to pick a symbol of the resistance it would be a honey bee.
They will reject a queen that no longer serves them and choose a new one (technically raise from larva hood), and they maintain structure in the hive when the queen is doing a good job. And everyone works together. Also honey
If you are one of those alleged 76%, please please please consider how you can contribute to the resistance and its goals
You may not know it now, but you know and care for someone trump wants to one day silence and kidnap.
You will eventually lose someone close to you.
The only way to stop that is to remove trump and Vance from office. The most efficient peaceful way we do that is a general strike.
And y’all we cannot wait for the midterms. He’s been in office SIX MONTHS
And today there’s nothing to tattle on a white American citizen, but—and I say with this love—if you don’t think ice won’t come for activists one day, you need to reevaluate your media literacy, critical thinking skills, and listening skills
That came off as a joke but in all seriousness, please consider if interacting with that person ever again is worth it. Fascists can and will report people, but enabler fascists will too, even if the don’t mean to.
My in laws would absolutely tattle on me by accident, for example
Hey so if you show the first 1:50 seconds of this video to someone and they still support trump and republicans change your number cus they are a fascist

Also look up thinking traps
They win when we give up
If someone on social media is making that harder, don’t follow them, mute them, scroll past them, whatever
I resonate with the concept of tragic optimism. Even when everything is falling to shit, do not let the small moments of strength pass you by. Internalize them, memorize them, call upon them when you need them most.
