"I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT."

If you're in the United States, that is ALL you should EVER say to law enforcement besides asking if you're being detained, and identifying yourself in a stop and ID state.

Protesters in New York March in Solidarity with Street Vendors Detained by Federal Agents

We're going to talk about c19 today and I'm going to ask you all in advance to not zone out like you do when we're talking about it in person😑

Covid not "a cold" - it attacks every system of the body, making it weaker to every other kind of infection. There's another illness that does similar.

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us.

We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again.

That's the revolution.

💥Breaking: Italy’s two largest unions call national general strike after Israel’s flotilla attack

The Italian unions CGIL and USB announced a nationwide general strike for Friday, October 3, covering all public and private sectors. The move follows Israel’s attack on the Gaza flotilla carrying...

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”

How to record ICE:

1) Record from a safe distance. DO NOT INTERVENE.
2) Put the DATE, TIME, & LOCATION on the video.
3) Ask for NAMES & BIRTHDAYS
4) CONTEXT, how many people were taken? What happened? How?
5) If possible, document vehicles used and agents, even if masked.

COVID Isn’t Going Anywhere. Masking Up Could Save My Life. "When I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving."

"I don’t know how to convince everyone that we can’t give up. So many people consider COVID to be endemic, or accept that everyone will eventually become infected, thinking nothing more can be done... but I know a better world is possible and we will move forward together."

Handwritten text on a notecard: My husbands ashes; I made me feel alone scared, empty, now I wonder where he is and if he's all still in his urn and if hes ok and I hope he's not in the dump

We asked people who experienced "sweeps" of homeless encampments to write about it in their own words.

In Portland, Teresa Stratton told us about how her husband’s ashes were taken in a removal:

By this point
you’ve probably seen
The Guardian headline:
“What do we know
about the COVID-19 virus
five years on?”
but as you may be too busy
to read the article,
allow me to summarize it:
what we know
about this virus five years on
is you should try
not to catch or spread it.

I want to thank Professor Caravello for trying to protect a disabled immigrant who had a canister of tear gas thrown under his wheelchair.

He was piled on, tackled and arrested for trying to do the right thing.

He refused to see this person as expendable, and that makes him a hero.

Chilling observation from (at) #leftist.reacts on 🕰️ app. #ItsAllConnected #Solidarity #StrongerTogether #WeProtectUs #WeKeepUsSafe

One of the perks of being Covid-Conscious is I never have to lay awake at night wondering if I gave someone an infection that disabled or killed them. I sleep with a clear conscience because I act like a responsible, grown-ass adult & mask in public.

Imagine if we all cared enough to do that.

Sad truth: they are indeed trying to use the **exact same** playbook to manufacture consent for this war.

Uplifting truth: there wasn't social media then. Public response to this is SO MUCH different than back then. Don't underestimate how important it is that they can't control the narrative now.

Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you are only wearing a mask at protests, please consider also wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.

South Park residents of San Diego, California, confront Trump’s ICE agents after they stormed a local Italian restaurant to detain staff.

This is how fascism is resisted. Courageous citizens standing their ground against regime thugs sent to intimidate them.
