Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

they're salami slicing by going after PSL and related groups first
the DSA-right could panic and gum up the works to prevent the org from acting in solidarity (or split to save their own hides)
other orgs might have their own reasons
meanwhile the dems could start doing their own crackdowns to deal with their left flank and keep the heat off themselves
This. They've already named PSL and groups like them in depositions related to ICE. They're going to start with the most "radical" groups that have less power to withstand, then go after the bigger ones. The old Nazi playbook, first go after the actual commies, then start slicing off trade unions and one at a time go after everyone else.
