to effect a de-arrest, count how many cops are restraining your comrade, and bring at least as many punks into the fray. your friend doesn’t count, since they need to escape, but the pigs will act like he is the target the whole time while you cut zip ties or break holds. with enough chaos, they won’t even understand what is happening until you all disappear into the crowd.

oh, and wear black

I don’t want to be one of the people you think is angry at you, but I do want to proselytize a bit.

have you ever used a dedicated download manager? think of the terminal, first, as a dedicated download manager. All you do is type wget and then paste in the URL.

eventually, you may want to specify where the file goes, or what it’s named when you finally download it, or something else. then, you can look up which flags to add with wget -h

I suggest you try Linux, any flavor, but especially Debian or Debian variants. instead of thinking you need to learn to use terminal, just remember that you have a dedicated download manager called terminal.

The thing is you will eventually learn that the terminal does a lot more than called wget. and you already know how to get help, and add flags.

I usually start with email, but I wonder if podcasts would be smarter. when I read what you said, my first thought was"but podcasts require you to upload to every instance that you want to be seen on" and then I realized that for the people that are just trying to get content this doesn’t matter. That’s actually genius.

I’ve been in the streets. …I’ve been attending various demonstrations, protests, and actions for nearly 20 years now. Ever since my early 20s (I’m 38 now) I’ve made a point of attending at least one protest every month, in addition to other actions I take part in. Lately, that’s been closer to weekly than monthly. I cook for my local Food Not Bombs and sometimes help distribute

nice. food solidarity is my jam.

if you want to unite, find something to do besides vote, and I’ll see you in the street

You can’t get rid of the Democratic Party until we get rid of the current political system first.

I can’t believe voting for Democrats is going to help with either endeavor

maybe you personally didn’t, but every time that somebody mentioned Jill Stein or Cornel West or de La Cruz, they were told that they weren’t viable because they didn’t have any support in Congress or other elected positions, so you have to vote for other people for president.

like I said, it’s never the right time to get rid of the Democratic party.

i love it. last year we were told to go get so-called “third party” candidates into office. now we’re being told it’s unrealistic in an off-year. it’s never the right time to get rid of the democratic party.

sen pai!

like I said, I think she’s doing everything I can expect. it’s not nothing, as you seem to imply.

if you’ve ever been arrested, you will know that the judge tells you to stay out of the kind of situations that resulted in your arrest. she is being silenced by the state.

but go on and snark. I’m sure you are much more effective, since everyone is asking what you have been doing since the election

the question was what has she been up to. that’s enough, imo

oh, in that case, dealing with corrupt officials trying to silence her. it’s just another day for jill.

what has Jill Stein been up to

protesting the genocide in gaza. actually got arrested for it.

stop. stop. you’re making too much sense!

it’s one reason among many.
