I've been so frustrated trying to find a cohesive movement to throw my support behind, but I'm wondering now if this is the way it should be.

Media isn't reporting on it because the subhuman pond slime who own and run it want you deluded and paralyzed

Thank you Minnesotans. "We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly affects all indirectly. Never again can we afford to live with the narrow, provincial "outside agitator" idea. Anyone who lives inside the United States can
never be considered an outsider.(M.L.K. "Letter from Birmingham Jail")

How is it that ICE can still buy food?
Stumpkiller
They dress like humans to go shopping.

Remember this: they had to scout the country to assemble a few thousand people - reportedly they don't want to get assigned to Minnesota, they avoid it if they can, they are afraid.
But Minnesota? Other communities around the country? Are they having problems getting people to stand up to ICE and MAGA Fascism? Hell fucking no brothers and sisters, and when it's my community or yours, be ready, because we're not gonna let Minnesota down.
Samja192
Heeeey I was saying this a few weeks ago - with all the effort the elite puts into dividing us, ICE has single handedly provided the US with the "bad guy" everyone can unify against

Imagine if SWAT teams started showing up to ICE homes and nobody had any way to figure out who had called the tip in.
barbarian818
I'm willing to bet virtually none of the ICE agents are from Minnesota. The extreme right's core has always been the southern states. I'm willing to bet the masked thugs all have "good ol' boy" accents.
Ijustwantquiet
I'm betting on ICE having large numbers of Klan and neo-NAZIs.

I fucking love the invading winter people in winter post. I hope they like invading the land of ice and snow, the home of the vikings. we know how to walk on ice, unlike this poor excuse of a human being, who undoubtedly has a bruised taint after this:
erinaceus
im not convinced ice is terrified.
jankyupeblik
They barely even show their faces. It's only a paycheck for almost all of them.
Skywatcher16
everytime they say "didnt you learn?" its a threat of repeating renee good. people who feel safe and secure dont make threats in that manner
Skywatcher16
they might still threaten and intimidate, but not by cozying up to their gun, voice cracking as they invoke what cememented opposition to
Skywatcher16
them, as if they have no better threat.
ReaperCDN
They exist in a terrified state. That's why they're so quick to jump to violence. Fear is what republicans manufacture, and its the people they attract.
ReaperCDN
I'd like to see evidence of the republicans against ICE. Genuinely. That would mark a significant break with the administration and is a solid starting point at unifying the divide.
ProppaGanda
They already lost a bunch of top level right wing pundits on that. They really fucked that up
anender
I can show where that's not the case. Because they can't imagine Republicans getting killed, then they'll say well, it wasn't me, or somebody I know personally. They'll keep saying it, even when a gun is put to their head.
ReaperCDN
Right but i didnt ask for where it isnt the case. The people who can be reasoned with are salvageable.
Hyzenthlay021
Love it! To paraphrase a great philosopher: "They are so many, and Minnesota is so small, where will we find room to bury them all?"

KilroyLichking

mrthewhitee
What's also great about this resistance is they're building a model that can be replicated by others when ICE attention eventually moves on from Minnesota.
MeatyShmack
I've heard of them coming to Phoenix Az soon. I'm so scared for our people when summer hits. I'm really hoping for ICE scurrying away when the 110+ degree temperatures hit and they succumb to the sun.
rubypilgrim
they've already started "catch of the day" in Maine. That's what they've called their mission there. "Catch of the Day." There aren't a lot of immigrants in Maine. It's a rural state with lots of white Americans in it. The biggest city is Portland, which has about 68k ppl in it, compared with the approx 430k people in Minneapolis. Maine can't resist like Minnesota can. More of their actions can go unrecorded and unreported. So who are they targeting?
rubypilgrim

I have seen people asking about easy ways to safely disable vehicles and suggesting things like glass etching compound or sugar in the gas tank. Has anyone else heard of things like this?

Sugar in the gas tank does nothing (it's a carbon ring in a soup of hydrocarbons, it gets burned). Bleach in the gas tank would be very bad.

bananabonanza3
This definitely does give me hope. Resistance is so decentralized because the threat to us all is simply so clear
piratecaptainwendy
Decentralized resistance is the best kind, especially right now. There is no command structure to disrupt, and we have no infrastructure to attack beyond you know, our homes lives and neighborhoods. If they lean harder, this becomes guerrilla warfare all over. Can we win that? Hope so. It helps to remember that the project 2025 shit heels want(ed) a non-violent coup. That's their plan. I honestly think that unless the resistance breaks we can outlast these parasites.
Hesterry
A guerrilla war would go so, so badly for the people in power. They always do. You should read about some of the organizations that operated in previously occupied parts of Ukraine. A lot of civilians made small cells that would coordinate to assassinate isolated Russian soldiers. One guy and his bartender friend managed to kill dozens of enemy combatants. She'd signal him, and he'd stalk and stab them to death in an alley.
hexephant
Protests here (not in MN) today are still performative, so the resistance is not sending a clear message yet, but one state getting it right is a start
DVSBSTrD
Its decentralized because people would rather be victims than win.

aguacatedeldiablo
I believe he's advocating for a direct military confrontation. Because he has no real idea what that even means or what it would take to even attempt such a thing, let alone to give it any chance of actual success. Here's a hint for him: it starts with what we're seeing in Minnesota. How far it goes depends on how far Trump's goons keep pushing.
andwings2go
If or when this maga fascist movement is beat down, we can’t just let the oligarchs retreat and say “ooops, sorry!”
And go back to the normal way of widening the wealth inequality gap year after year.
itsthevoiceman
Exactly. Just like COVID, "normal is what got us here". We can't go back, we have to evolve and push forward.
Eyeetsass
Elon does not get US citizenship. He can fuck off back to South Africa if he’s not hanged for a traitor. We need to tax them, and break their will to meddle in democracy. The financial penalties that we could levy, and the assets we could seize would easily pay for education, and medical in this country.
wadatahmydamie
That’s why I refuse to trust groups like The Lincoln Party. They’re just trying to right the boat for their old money donors, and remove (some) power from the new money Techbros
ArdentSlacker
Lincoln Project? Their *entire* deal is to solicit donations from liberals to sell them adverts that say some republicans aren't evil... in timeslots that guarantee republicans won't see 'em. And they send the rest of the money to republican candidates who want what they all want... an end to human rights, bodily autonomy, and just... every policy guaranteed to cause maximum suffering.
Trust no republican, and not even half the dems.
hjortmar
Corp Dems seem to think they need move closer to the oligarchy, hope they present a viable candidate
piratecaptainwendy
That's the party my dood. They ARE the status quo. There's like 20 dems and dem voting indies that are worth our time. The rest can go to hell. We can do better. And, clearly, we NEED to. Once we have proper democracy
hjortmar
The 2 party system needs to go, rotten, rigged and abused by paid doorstoppers.
piratecaptainwendy
Yes. We need to remember who did, and did NOT, do what. A VAST accounting is needed once we've dealt with the MAGAts
bananabonanza3
Yeah, absolutely.
TrueNorthernLights
This is more important than you understand. I'm Canadian, so I'm watching this unfold from the safety of the outside. So I'm telling everyone I can, you have to document EVERYTHING. Film everything. Especially the top Republicans. When they're at an event, talking, revealing their lack of morality, film them. Get their faces. Film them on TV talking. Because I PROMISE you, when all this is over, and sanity returns, every last one of them(1)
TrueNorthernLights
- will say "I wasn't there. I didn't know. I can't remember. It was someone else." Their lawyers will say they have no memory, you can't hold them accountable for something they did or did not do." That's when the videos need to surface. Because right now, they have the power to walk away free. But once it's gone, evidence will be badly needed to try and ensure some justice.
CALAMOSCOPYJANE
I think you meant to finish with another comment but you are so right. There will be so much denialism, it we’ll be just as sickening as their present actions.
Don’t let them get away with their crimes against humanity. Make these assholes pay. Do not fall prey to the paradox of tolerance.
TrueNorthernLights
Huh. I did post a second part, but it posted twice. I deleted one, and they both went. But yes. That is exactly what will happen.
CALAMOSCOPYJANE

Imagine if their SUV's just stopped reporting in. One here, then another, then another. No dramatic call to arms, just silence, then more silence, then total silence. Then people go home and ICE isn't an issue any more. "I didn't see shit" is the new tag line of patriots.

FYI, "sugar in the gas tank" doesn't really do anything. It doesn't dissolve in gasoline. It just sits in the bottom of the fuel tank, or gets caught in the fuel pumps filter sock.

Water balloons filled with paint and glue and water are bad enough in normal temps. Who wants to find out what happens when they freeze?
HugfordBlops
If they were in my city they'd get a Molotov through the first open car door or window. They can call in backup to find a crowd of randoms acting natural, or enjoy the walk home.
SackTheRipper
Porcelain chip is step 1. Molotov won't always penetrate a vehicle window. Weaken the glass, melt the ice.
SackTheRipper
Rapidly shattering glass would also naturally remove occupants from a vehicle to inspect the issue. If they somehow found themselves engulfed in flames after exiting, the sparkplugs were probably not installed correctly. Or they are driving a Teslerrrr
HugfordBlops
It's why I said open door or window. I wouldn't want it to shatter outside the vehicle and hit any 'officer' standing next to it 😁
