          oh wow. I knew IBM were involved, but it always seemed to be handwaved as “yeah we sold them some computers before we knew they were evil and had no control over what they did with them”. But uhh nope. They were complicit as fuck.

            Yeah sadly Coke, Ford, IBM, General Motors, IT&T, Kodak, were the biggest ones, but “line go up” regardless of human death and suffering has existed forever and only now we’ve gotten better at codifying it

      They won’t until upper middle class college educated white people start being affected. The Vietnam War didn’t become a controversial topic with this demographic until they started drafting college students. Once they start sending wealthier native born white people to camps for voting Democrat is when the fighting will happen on a national scale.

                  I remember trying to use “calm down” as a power move when I was in high school. I’m sure it didn’t at all telegraph to everyone in earshot that I was too fragile to face up to the discussion and too terrified to offer anything useful.

            Just because you don’t see resistance happening on your pretty little television screen doesn’t mean there isn’t organizing going on in the background. And no, I don’t mean protests.

              Yeah that’s what I said.

              “Organize” doesn’t mean you find out there’s a planned protest in a designated area away from everyone and surrounded by cops to make sure you’re contained. That’s performative.

              Organize means building power from the ground up, knocking on doors, meeting in living rooms, cooking meals, making childcare plans, and finding the people in your community who are ready to fight and ready to love. It means strategizing together, planning direct actions that disrupt, not entertain power. It means understanding that the terrain of struggle isn’t just symbolic; it’s material. Streets, workplaces, campuses, and housing complexes become the front lines.

              Organizing is about forming bonds that last beyond a single march, about mutual trust and shared risk. It’s not just about showing up, it’s about staying. It’s not a hashtag, it’s a commitment. It’s not consent to be managed, it’s consent to resist.

      The parallels are scary. But seriously fight back your future is at stake. I have never seen such a rise in hatred and immotivated targeting of any cultural dissent in the past few years. Now anything non trumpish is being seen as un-american, but Trump is un-american, betraying in the most vulgar way the constitution. Now even legal paying foreigners are seeing more shit. And now even Americans are seeing some shit too, and it’s getting worse with palantir collecting anything personal.
