All due respect, for party members, our strength lies in our party membership and unity. There were so many BLM figures killed after Ferguson in 2014, likely by elements of the US Gov't, but nobody was able to seriously stand up for them at the time. Now, we aren't touchable by the state, because if any direct party members were to be kidnapped like Mahmoud it'd only strengthen our movement and the entire party would work to defend us. Ironically, the best defense against this fate is being a party member in my mind
Yeah ik, I'm still in the process of joining but late at night sometimes doom and get scared. But I also know that what you say is true.
And, if they are going to be black bagging random idiots like me, I'm already screwed for posting here and for liking/sharing pro Palestine stuff and PSL stuff on Instagram.
