  • It’s most peoples understanding that being a member of any organization that has “socialist” in the name can make you a target for fascist. But I think it’s also most peoples perspective that EVERYONE is a target for fascist eventually. There is no defense in just sitting by and hoping that you’re the last to be targeted.

    this is

    As a straight white male it’s definitely a privileged position to not have to be as concerned yet.

    a great

    The SRA itself is not at all political though and members are discouraged from doing any organizing that could be connected directly to the organization. It’s basically meant to be a safe space for people to learn responsible gun ownership. Something that is usually dominated by the “maga hats”.

    Thank you!


  • Think the FBI hangs out with y’all, post-9/11-mosque style? Which was very nice and not harassy of them

    Wonder if members are safer given you’ll all be more knowledgeable than average or whether fascists would make a point to target the group as the rights situation further declines.

    Hopeful the midterms magically change things somehow and we don’t devolve into this conversation being incredibly relevant/important and it can stay a no-knowledge theoretical comment of mine

    Ya we write each post to the fed first and each other second

    Should I be OK since I’m non-violent, well in Kkkamala’s Amerikkka I would’ve been but not so much in again great America

    it’s just words

    btw you expecting to see violence prior to midterm season + it used to justify martial law to “postpone” the election?


  • successfully lied to

    Indeed—quoting this as it matches my earlier comment and it’s the best way* I can think of to show something important:

    Zero sarcasm in my earlier comment. That’s no “/s”.

    *Permission granted to stalk comment history for a sec too :) username was a misnomer this time around but I do like to have fun too

    btw the arc of the moral universe is long, per Dr. King, but I do hope it meaningfully bends toward justice while we are all still on this rock with our loved ones


  • Oh goodness JB… that is awful, people close to you succumbing to the expertly-crafted lies of powerful, malicious goons.

    Really sorry to hear that. Neither this country nor our people were educated or prepared for this, broadly speaking.

    Our defenses were so low, I had no idea. I knew we were sucking eggs in education and healthcare and all kinds of things, but I didn’t know we would be susceptible to this kind of Heritage Foundation attack in a post-decorum world.


    I branched out there but anyway, really sorry to know bad people exploited us and left you unable to live a key part of your life in the way you deserve 🖤




  • I was just reading an article saying it’s terrible we’re deporting a ton of kids who never speak to a lawyer. Then it said the proportion had gone up, and cited the old pre-fascism figure. The smaller number was also appalling!

    So, clearly sickening all around.

    Anybody know what the proper path forward would be? Say the proper interim path. If giving the best representation to all kids means thankfully more get to stay, might it change the calculus of parents put in impossible situations and lead them to strategically abandon their children here hoping they’ll get a better life? And maybe it’s an entirely rational decision at least at first—but eventually even more kids might slip through the cracks. And as costs for anything balloon, negative attention does too. Negative attention sucks oxygen even when you’re willing to fight.

    And public defendants already have like negative time to spend with their clients, we desperately need more.

    Fucking sucks
