Amy Cooter, Co-founder and Deputy Directory, Institute for Countering Digital Extremism, on what we can do in our communities to counter the growth of far-right extremism - and much more!

Great watch. And if you are in the PNW, there are lists we have made of orgs and direct action networks and collectives you can organize with. They are all in the FEED “Cascadia Collective” as well.

Had a blast talking (about terrible things with a shred of optimism!) today with @awkword.bsky.social

"It's really important to try to know which groups might be active in your area. Familiarize yourself with the taglines, the most common icons. And if you see something tagged around town... be willing to stand up and support your neighbors who may be targeted before you."

(1/2) While this is upsetting, it's unsurprising. Anyone who could be considered a threat to the isms that be have been surveyed and silenced since the beginning of the Cold War, if not sooner.

Don't do it. I double dog dare you not to do it! 😂

Analysis: Trump’s first year back in office contradicts his ‘free speech’ commitments | CNN Business Nora Benavidez of the nonprofit advocacy group Free Press set out to catalog the Trump administration’s First Amendment infringements. She soon had a list of almost 200.

The last few months, I’ve been working on a major project: analyzing the Trump admin’s hostile treatment of the First Amendment. That has led to today’s release of our @freepress.bsky.social report “Chokehold.” @brianstelter.bsky.social @cnn.com details our findings: www.cnn.com/2025/12/08/m...

Robin Williams' daughter, Zelda Williams, also recently slammed people who are making Al-generated videos of her late father, calling the clips "gross." She added, "To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough, just so other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop pup-peteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it."

Freely sharing an email that I just sent to the founder of the Stormfront white nationalist forums, Don Black. Nothing will come from it... But I have not actually talked to Don since before I got myself banned... and it was time.. It's been nearly a decade since I got out.

The chief goal of the Trump regime's operations murdering people in the Caribbean is to foster bloodlust in their supporters—to turn them into debased monsters like this ghoul.

Why? Consult René Girard on sacrificial violence:

My mom’s naturalization was a family event - dressed up, photos & lunch to celebrate.

Days later my grandma-in-law gave her apple pie with a card: “Now you’re as American as apple pie.”

If you’re not Native, you’re from immigrants. Punishing law-abiding immigrants is just white supremacy.
