Many have observed that Trump . . . is looking to create a pretext for a much harsher crackdown. This makes Saturday’s No Kings protests even more consequential. In the event of any violence, whether from protesters or agent provocateurs, the president will doubtless seize on it to expand his power.

      Okay, sorry. I’m sure holding up your witty sign about how it’s so bad even the introverts are here will totally make the fascist reconsider their ways and free all the people ice has illegally detained

        American liberals will fight harder against your suggestion that they’re not doing enough than they will against fascism. Cowardly fucking clowns to the last man.

          Well I’m not American so my government hasn’t gone fully fascist yet.

          But to answer anyway as part of Just Stop Oil I’ve participated in shutting down LNG depots, crashed a fossil fuel investment fair, shut down shell offices and allegedly some criminal damage to a sea floor survey vessel used by BP. and I’m currently waiting for trial date for supporting Palestine Action.
