Elaborate

I’ll do the honors, even if I find it repulsive that you're aware of them, and won't help secure these performists:

Camera has no filters, allowing forensics to identify which lens made these shots. So she better dispose her iPhone.
She recorded her voice, and accent. So she better have surgery tomorrow.
She was photographed in the gas station, so she better delete the footage.
She made reflective mistakes: -Now that everyone in the planet knows she went to this gas station, anyone in the planet can retrace her steps. ICE should be the least of her worries.

ICE wants us all to be scared of resisting them. Don't fucking fall for it. It is everyone's duty to resist at all times.

She doesn't need to be scared because she's not doing anything wrong. She is exercising free speech, she is defending the constitution. We are not criminals. We are law abiding citizens, and we will abide by the laws and the constitution while we hold these contemptible unconstitutional criminals in the contempt they deserve. We don't need to be scared because we're not going to cower and hide from fascists, are we? If we do that, they're going to win. I don't want them to win. Do you? That's not defending your country. The right thing to do to fascists is to fight them.

ICE needs to be afraid. This is the right way for us to make them feel. They're the ones doing wrong things. We will make them afraid. We will not let them make us afraid. That is how you lose the fight. We need to fight like our lives depend on it. Because everyone's lives do in fact depend on it.

A post using this as an example of things people should do differently would be great.

However, I do not agree I am harming someone who made an active decision to do this and post it online.

People should not be afraid to speak truth to power, but I know this is not reality.

Don’t worry about them. They just show up to complain about people actually doing something.

They did what exactly?

Don't worry, Neolibs in threadiverse hate my black anarchist praxis, so instead of coming up with actual strategies to compost Nazis, they punch down on my concerns. Notice I actually uplift my neighbors, while athatet＠lemmy.zip is a porn addict.
