"Fascist raids by law enforcement should be met with:
I don’t know.
I can’t help.
I do not know anybody’s legal status.
I have no idea who is an immigrant.
White folks are used to being polite and accommodating to cops.
Do not fall into your old ways.
For once, your silence will not be violence. STFU if the cops come looking for your neighbours. No matter how friendly.
Fascism only works if we go along with it. Fascism only works if we surrender to it.
Resist.
Do not say a word about your neighbours. As far as the cops are concerned you’re a recluse who doesn’t talk to anybody where you live."

It’s like part of me wants to follow MLK’s way of doing things but then 5 minutes later it’s “welp. Guess we’re doing it Malcom X’s way instead.” Then I have to sit there and remind myself that violence only begets violence and sooner or later history will look back and say “nobody remembers why the fighting started, just that it did and that it’s been going ever since.”
A Brief Disagreement
It’s been a long road gettin’ from there to here.
I’m currently watching DS9 and Enterprise is next on my list … Star Trek definitely gives one a perspective of humanity that is much needed.
TFW you realize you’re in the Mirror Universe.
TFW you realize that even if we’re in the Prime Universe, we’re living through the Bell Riots and WWII is right around the corner.
TFW when you realize that we aren’t living in any of those universes but we’re going to have a totalitarian world order, the Bell Riots, WWIII, no interstellar engine technology and no Vulcans coming to save us.
