    Kat, they voted to pay for the fascists. We are past criminalizing fascists. You are either on the ground helping us physically demolish ICE deathcamps and freeing victims, or you’re the fascist press.

    Real leadership is on the ground helping your neighbors. Not platforming your career in a speech.

      Dem congressional candidate assaulted by ICE agent

      Kat is one of the few people with a political spotlight that is doing something. Sure, she’s a liberal trying to fix a broken system from within; but you can’t say she is one to only give speeches and not participate in active resistance.

      Try to remember, anyone who takes an active role in resistance and who isn’t preventing other forms of resistance is an ally.

        trying to fix a broken system from within

        Ah, thanks for reminding why she is still at theatrics of protest that started 22 years ago.

        political spotlight

        I’d say political theatrics.

        active role in resistance and who isn’t preventing other forms of resistance

        Care to elaborate here? I would never prevent a liberal from making a fool of themselves, like Kat is exemplifying, but how do you actually resist 90% completion of fascism?

          If you don’t understand the difference between resistance and obedience, then no. You aren’t able to recognize an ally and I won’t continue the conversation as I don’t think it will be productive.

          For anyone else reading this, please look up the Wikipedia page for Lateral violence/horizontal hostility

            If you don’t understand the difference between resistance and obedience

            Please recall that 🇺🇲 is an illiterate empire, so you have to precise what differences you mean here. Because both liberals and fascist have wildly different meanings to these nouns, not used in philosophy.

            I am a black anarchist, so I know all 8 definitions. Which why I requested precisions.

            recognize an ally

            To what? Maintaining the empire that deathcamped me? The one still praxing my genocide? How is Kat an ally to a system meant to oppress everyone but the rulers?

            productive

            Faster precision: what are you trying to produce?

      I’m sure you have fought, and suffered, a lot, yourself. But if you consider anyone who does any less than you your enemy, you will find yourself alone very quickly.

        Scroll down a tad. I am extremely aware others are unlike me, and incapable of my feats.

        I have to ask, how many more broken by design systems do you need to be slammed to the floor to comprehend your tactics are completely ineffective?

        Because I reasked myself several times, why would I waste my time, and praxis, talking to folks that both funded the fascists, and also killed minorities? What kind of liberal am I running for the party wanting to kill my constituents?

          Alright, I’ll bite. What are you doing about this besides arguing with other leftists on a public forum. Kat is literally the definition of harm reduction. Her campaign contributions were soley from individual citizen donations. Those donations funded mutual aid and outreach to her community. She was fucking thrown to the ground and jailed protesting ICE. What is your praxis in the movement currently?

          I’m agreeing with you. I think the Dems who funded ICE for decades aren’t going to dismantle it.

            Then append a “— Kat Abughazaleh (2026-1-24),” otherwise it reads as if you were derisively projecting what I typed.

            In threadiverse, for projected implications, most of us are using backticks+<. e.g.

            <and Democrats vowed once again to get rid of the fascists if they get votes in midterms!!
