Here's some bilingual Know Your Rights graphics in English and Chinese (simplified) from a civil rights/immigrant rights nonprofit based in San Francisco Chinatown.

This is how it's done. Nazis should be scared to be out in public. Don't give them an inch.

If you're looking for a cozy, queer graphic novel, check out my book, Basil and Oregano! It's about two girls who fall in love at a magical cooking school (and they have a dog named Tomato!)

It's a sweet story about love and art. Fans of The Owl House, Heartstopper, and Dungeon Meshi will love it!

We can stop reading the NYT and WaPo any time and support independent journalism instead.

Please just remember that this TikTok ban isn't just losing your Pedro Pascal edits. Thousands of Americans just lost their primary income sources, and the rest of us just lost our primary form of organization and information dissemination. The US government CHOSE to silence us all. #tiktokban

Y'know how they're going after trans folks as a legal/narrative pretext to go after everyone else? Well, just in case you thought they'd try to be slow or sneaky about it: nope!

Organizing locally and supporting your neighbors is the only way forward. Class solidarity is the only antidote to fascism.

four grainy, desaturated old video stills, first a conservatively styled woman with red hair smiling at the camera, second a hand reaching into the frame to slam a pie in her face, third a man holding his hands up looking grim, fourth the woman again with her head in her hands, full of pie

Only then are their families consoled, empty affirmations of their loved ones loss being some sacrifice to insure their continued comfort. Only when these people die are they provided any semblance of recognition.

Dragged away from their families, with no assurance they'll ever return. And only then, when they are killed, are they heralded as a hero who valiantly gave their lives in defense of freedom.

They have yet to prove themselves worthy of recognition. They are trained to fight wars for a ruling class who would throw their lives away on little more than a few acres of land they can devastate to earn profit.

America is consumed by a "Martyr Culture". Your life is worth nothing if you didn't die for something. My go to example is military service. From the second some poor sap, fresh out of high school, is coerced into joining the military, they are repeatedly reminded they are "worthless" and "weak".

However, the right chooses the gallows. Though often seen as a weapon of criminal execution, popularized most often in many slave lynchings, military executions, criminal cases during the early industrial periods, and religious executions.

For the left the guillotine symbolizes a revolution. Popularized by the French Revolution, the weapon is eternally linked to violent revolutions against a ruling class by their oppressed class. It symbolizes punishment for those who have put the people down for so long.

It can't just be me who recognizes the difference between the weapons each side of the political spectrum uses as threats to their opponents. For the leftists, the weapon of choice is commonly a guillotine. The right: the gallows.
